Radio KAOM: "Love's On The Way" by Sebastian Kole
Love is Calling.
Will You Answer?
Sebastian Kole
"Love's On The Way"
LYRICS:
"Is it just me or is the world going crazy lately?
What's going on?
Can we not see the way were evolving, changing
Something's gone wrong
'Cause every other day it's the same old story
Broken record on repeat.
Another man dies and a child goes hungry while my brothers cry for peace
Here's another war song for the poor
Singing freedom isn't free.
How can my heart not beat for these?
How can my heart not bleed for these?
Love called and asked about us
Said she'd wondered where we'd gone
She's been lonely without us
She wants us to come back home
Don't you miss the way it used to be for you and me?
We won't you please...
Answer her call with me and say
Hey love we're on the way
Oh we've been gone for way too long
Hey love we're on the way
I feel the changes coming on
And if you're ready follow me
We'll be the change we wanna see
Hey love we're on the way
Or is it far too late, and are we too far gone?
Maybe I'm numb to the news of violence
I just send another prayer
Maybe we're used to this or clueless, or is it nobody cares?
'Cause every other day it's another killing and our children have to pay
We act like if we ignore it maybe it'll go away
No, I'm not a superhero I just wanna save the day
I Can't pretend everything's OK
Can't pretend everything's OK
Love called and asked about us
Said she'd wondered where we'd gone
She's been lonely without us
She wants us to come back home
Don't you miss the way it used to be for you and me?
We won't you please...
Answer her call with me and say
Hey love we're on the way
Oh we've been gone for way too long
Hey love we're on the way
I feel the changes coming on
And if you're ready follow me
We'll be the change we wanna see
Hey love we're on the way
Or is it far too late, and are we too far gone?
Oh, So pardon me if I cross the line...
But standing round watching is just a waste of time
World won't change...
No the world won't change till we try, till we try
Hey love we're on the way
Oh we've been gone for way too long
Hey love we're on the way
I feel the changes coming on
And if you're ready follow me
We'll be the change we wanna see
Hey love we're on the way
Or is it far too late, and are we too far gone?"

Radio KAOM: Xavier Rudd "Follow The Sun"
A FEEL GOOD TUNE!
Xavier Rudd
"Follow The Sun"
LYRICS:
"Follow, follow the sun
And which way the wind blows
When this day is done
Breathe, breathe in the air
Set your intentions
Dream with care
Tomorrow is a new day for everyone
Brand new moon, brand new sun
So follow, follow the sun
The direction of the birds
The direction of love
Breathe, breathe in the air
Cherish this moment
Cherish this breath
Tomorrow is a new day for everyone
Brand new moon, brand new sun
When you feel life coming down on you
Like a heavy weight
When you feel this crazy society
Adding to the strain
Take a stroll to the nearest waters
And remember your place
Many moons have risen and fallen long, long before you came
So which way is the wind blowin'
And what does your heart say?
So follow, follow the sun
And which way the wind blows
When this day is done"

MUSIC: "San Francisco" by Scott McKenzie
A Hippie Classic
If you're going to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some Flowers in your hair
Such a Beautiful Song
"John Phillips of The Mamas & the Papas wrote the song "San Francisco (Be Sure to Wear Flowers in Your Hair)" for his friend Scott McKenzie to promote the Monterey Pop Festival that Phillips was helping to organize. Released on May 13, 1967, the song's lyrics urged visitors to San Francisco to "wear some flowers in your hair", in keeping with the festival's billing as "three days of music, love, and flowers". The song was a popular hit, reaching number 4 on the music chart in the United States and number 1 in the United Kingdom and most of Europe, and became an unofficial anthem for hippies, flower power and the flower child concept."

MUSIC: "Hammer and a Nail" by the Indigo Girls
FEEL GOOD - GET UP and DO GOOD
The Indigo Girls were part of the soundtrack
Of my life in the 1990's
This song is one of my favorites from them
Brilliant Lyrics
Packed full of meaning
On so many different levels
One of the messages I get from it
Is that when I'm depressed
Stop wallowing in despair
Get up! Get up out of bed
Get up and start building a better world
~*~
Lyrics from Hammer and a Nail
Songwriter: Emily Ann Saliers
"Clearing webs from the hovel
A blistered hand on the handle of a shovel
I've been digging too deep, I always do
I see my face on the surface
I look a lot like Narcissus
A dark abyss of an emptiness
Standing on the edge of a drowning blue
I look behind my ears for the green
And even my sweat smells clean
Glare off the white hurts my eyes
I gotta get out of bed and get a hammer and a nail
Learn how to use my hands, not just my head
I think myself into jail
Now I know a refuge never grows
From a chin in a hand in a thoughtful pose
Gotta tend the earth if you want a rose
Had a lot of good intentions
Sit around for fifty years and then collect a pension
Started seeing the road to hell and just where it starts
But my life is more than a vision
The sweetest part is acting after making a decision
I started seeing the whole as a sum of its parts
And I, I look behind my ears for the green
And even my sweat smells clean
Glare off the white hurts my eyes
I gotta get out of bed and get a hammer and a nail
Learn how to use my hands, not just my head
I think myself into jail
Now I know a refuge never grows
From a chin in a hand in a thoughtful pose
Gotta tend the earth if you want a rose
My life is part of the global life
I'd found myself becoming more immobile
When I'd think a little girl in the world can't do anything
A distant nation my community
A street person my responsibility
If I have a care in the world I have a gift to bring
I look behind my ears for the green
And even my sweat smells clean
Glare off the white hurts my eyes
I gotta get out of bed and get a hammer and a nail
Learn how to use my hands, not just my head
I think myself into jail
Now I know a refuge never grows
From a chin in a hand in a thoughtful pose
Gotta tend the earth if you want a rose"
