From ANDRAS JONES: LINDSEY SAMPSON of the band Visiting Wine was invited by our musical guest KAITI JONES to ask a question on Radio8Ball. It was a charming interaction exploring the different phases of creativity for a performing songwriter. And if you listen to the end you’ll get a little Visiting Wine.
POP ORACLE Song of The Day (November 19, 2018): Dan Bern “Roger Clemens”
DIRT
Kicking up the same old dirt
That gathered round my mother’s mother’s skirt
I’ve come to find that in my mind
It’s half of what they’ve left behind
And half of what I hope to find
Cause I’m a new creation born
Of generations weathered and well-worn
And deep in every child’s face
There lives an old familiar place
Some well-preserved, some well-erased
And all these things are creeping through the earth
A blackened brand of birth
And firsts are never firsts when you’re inheriting the dirt
And one day when I’ve tamed the wild
And summoned of the earth a little child
I’ll fail to save her though I’ll try
And she’ll forgive me as she cries,
“My face is yours and yours is mine”
And all these things are creeping through the earth
A blackened brand of birth
And firsts are never firsts when you’re inheriting the dirt
And sometimes when I’m all alone
I close my eyes and hear my mother’s tone
She held me in her arms at night
And whispered that we’d be all right
We hurt and also we delight
And that’s the thing about this life
