  Let Me into Your Heart

I was watching the movie and "Let Me Into Your Heart" jumped out of the scene. Who is this? I asked an email friend in NC about "Chapin" and a CD of songs arrived a few weeks later. Then a "bolt from the blue" popped up; Na Leo Pilimehana had done a version of "I Feel Lucky" on one of their music CD releases. A trip to Allmusic set me on a quest to eBay, Borders, and Jelly's (A local used CD sh...

  Thanksgiving Song

Until now, the only holiday song that didn't mention Christmas (or Thanksgiving, for that matter) was "Over The River and Through The Woods." However, this track mentions the holiday that comes before Christmas. Get out your guitar and sing it at your next Tryptophan-stuffed family gathering, even if you do go "over the river and through the woods..."

  Quittin' Time - (live, Ryman Auditorium, Nashville, Tennessee, acoustic version)

I came to the party late, when an email friend sent "Come On Come On" from NC. So one day I was looking for Mary Chapin Carpenter CDs, when "Party Doll and Other Favorites" caught my eye. What interested me were the live performances, which some say aren't as good as the studio version. I didn't find "State of the Heart" until some time later, and the difference between studio and live was cons...

  Hot Buttered Rum

Unless a hotel or department store turns the air conditioning up to "Arctic" setting, there's no place in Hawaii that serves this chill cutter. There is an ice skating rink, where they may indeed serve this beverage to adults, but my across-the-street neighbor is visiting family in Canada, so I can't ask him. I wonder if my uncle in Michigan has had reason to thaw out this way after shoveling s...

  Christmas Time in the City

Before the NFL got their hands on Dire Straits' "The Walk of Life," I recall that the original video was about a subway Busker. What's a Busker? A "Street performer," giving a public concert for coins, bills, or, occasionally applause as well as money. Mary Chapin Carpenter takes us with her on a rainy Winter session, amid the lights and bustle of Christmas. Be nice to your local Busker, "Ameri...
