    I'm on like my 7th time in a row of listening to it. I love this album. Not keen on the 4th street feeling single but like all the other songs. I still wish I could chat with you and discuss the songs! They all have stories.

    You'll only get a cyber slap if you do not find some quiet time and go on this journey with Melissa. Soak in the music and the words. This is her "part 2" diary that she is sharing with the world. :)

    OK, my most favorite songs on this album...

    •Falling Up (fun song)
    •Shout Now
    •The Shadow of a Black Crow
    •Be Real
    •A Disaster (Love, love love this one. She's emptying the poison built up in her from Tammy's poison blogs about their break-up)
    •Sympathy
    •Sacred Heart
    •Rock and Roll Me
    •The Beating of Your Heart
    •Change the World

    Pretty much all the songs shy of a few. I love this album! :)

    @ Lindi, This is why we call her concerts, "The Church of Etheridge" She just fills you with so much emotion. I usually end up loving the world after listening to her.
    lindilou

    millie111

    Yep..that`s pretty much ALL o them!!:-)...Have just downloaded it...shall listen to it all properly en route today...I love "Disaster"..("Say Goodbye to the ENEMY")!!(V.topical here)!! xx

    I love all the names she came up with for T in that song ;) I bet you never saw the blogs Tammy wrote about Melissa and all the lies she told. I'm glad Melissa wrote Disaster. That song had to be very therapeutic for her.

    Personal taste Ducky. I don't expect everyone to like her. Besides, it's more about the words, the music and the journey. :)

    and she don't sound like she's quacking when she speaks or sings........ :)

    Friendship is a relationship between two people who hold mutual affection for each other.[1] Friendships and acquaintanceship are thought of as spanning across the same continuum. The study of friendship is included in the fields of sociology, social psychology, anthropology, philosophy, and zoology. Various academic theories of friendship have been proposed, including social exchange theory, equity theory, relational dialectics, and attachment styles.


    The value of friendship is often the result of friends consistently demonstrating the following:


    The tendency to desire what is best for the otherSympathy and empathyHonesty, even in situations where it may be difficult for others to speak the truthMutual understanding and compassion; ability to go to each other for emotional supportEnjoyment of each other's companyTrust in one anotherPositively strong, deep, close reciprocity, mutuality — equal give-and-take between the two partiesThe ability to be oneself, express one's feelings and make mistakes without fear of judgement. from wiki

    My best friend is Laurie. I would describe her as a person who likes me in spite of my faults. I'm the one she called in the middle of the night when her mom died suddenly.  I'm the one she took to the beach for a week when we were kids and her parents rented a place for a vacation. She's the one I confide everything to, and trust her to keep things confidential.  She's the one I turn to when life is NOT going well and when life IS going great.  We have known each other for 55 years and never had a disagreement. 


    A friend is someone you trust with your heart and soul.

    That`s a REAL WOW!!!...From me!:-)...(Not many people last the course)!!...I still have a few childhood friends..but nothing comparable to that!!:-)
    Bob/PKB

    She is the epitome of a blessing! :D "Old friends" can't be beat!

    Friends, there not all what their cracked up to be. The older I get the more insincere they seem to be.

    Friendship: Love, trust, respect, acceptance, and always a pleasure.........

    sometimes your friends will treat you better than your family . They are always there for you  when you need something. You don't get lonely with your close freinds, but you do when you want to see your family, and they're not available.

    I don't know about friend , but have plenty of enemies!

    Trust, Respect, truly care for the other's wellbeing, stand at their side regarless of the situation, lots of fun....both peeps feel this way they have true friends.
