Monday Morning Mojo Massage: Landslide

Some musical lovings for your Monday morning Mojo massage, may it soothe and groove your soul in some sweet way.  Lyrics at the bottom.

“Landslide”

Took this love and I took it down

Climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
Till the landslide brought me downOh, mirror in the sky, what is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
And can I sail through the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life?
Oh oh I don’t know, oh I don’t know

Well, I’ve been afraid of changing
‘Cause I’ve built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older I’m getting older too
Yes I’m getting older too, so

I’ve been afraid of changing
‘Cause I, I’ve built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I’m getting older too oh yes
I’m getting older too

So, take this love, take it down
Oh if you climb a mountain and you turn around
If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide will bring you down, down
And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills

Well maybe the landslide will bring you down
Well well, the landslide will bring you down

Monday Morning Mojo Massage: I can’t make you love me

A few different versions of a classic song.  Some good Monday mojo massaging going on here… full lyrics posted at the bottom.  Bonnie Raitt, Bon Iver, Tank, Adele, George Michael all doing their thing.

Songwriters: REID, MICHAEL / SHAMBLIN, ALLEN

Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don’t patronize – don’t patronize meCause I can’t make you love me if you don’t
You can’t make your heart feel something it won’t
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I’ll feel the power
But you won’t, no you won’t
‘Cause I can’t make you love me, if you don’t

I’ll close my eyes, then I won’t see
The love you don’t feel when you’re holding me
Morning will come and I’ll do what’s right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight

Cause I can’t make you love me if you don’t
You can’t make your heart feel something it won’t
Here in the dark, in these lonely hours
I will lay down my heart and I’ll feel the power
But you won’t, no you won’t
‘Cause I can’t make you love me, if you don’t

12 seconds to laughter

Random, funny, “things” are an important part of life, perhaps one reason why I enjoy teaching middle school students and my humor.  The clip above is well worth the 12 seconds, maybe even 24, or 48 , depending on how many times you replay it.  The video is a bit of banter between a couple of friends in Italy, If you know Dan P. you’ll laugh even harder.  And if you don’t know Dan, have never been to Italy, and don’t know Italian, you will still laugh.
