Something different

A little video someone (not me) put together with one of my favorite performers doing one of my favorite songs. If you're over 30, you can probably identify with this one quite easily, especially sung by this lady.



Sometimes It's A Bitch

Written by Jon Bon Jovi and Billy Falcon.

Well I've run through rainbows and castles of candy
I cried a river of tears from the pain
I try to dance with what life has to hand me
My partner's been pleasure my partner's been pain

There are days when I swear I could fly like an eagle
And dark desperate hours that nobody sees
My arms stretched triumphant on top of the mountain
My head in my hands down on my knees

Sometimes it's a bitch sometimes it's a breeze
Sometimes love's blind and sometimes it sees
Sometimes it's roses and, sometimes it's weeds
Sometimes it's a bitch sometimes it's a breeze

I've reached in darkness and come out with treasure
I've laid down with love and I woke up with lies
What's it all worth only the heart can measure
It's not what's in the mirror but what's left inside

Sometimes it's a bitch sometimes it's a breeze
Sometimes love's blind and sometimes it sees
Sometimes it's roses and, sometimes it's weeds
Sometimes it's a bitch sometimes it's a breeze

You gotta take it as it comes
Sometimes it don't come easy

I've run through rainbows and castles of candy
And I've cried a river of tears from the pain
I tried to dance with what life had to hand me
And if I could I'd do it all over again

Sometimes it's a bitch sometimes it's a breeze
Sometimes love's blind and sometimes it sees
Sometimes it's roses and, sometimes it's weeds
Sometimes it's a bitch sometimes it's a breeze
Sometimes the picture just ain't what it seems
You get what you want but it's not what you need
Sometimes it's a bitch sometimes it's a breeze
Well it's a breeze it's a breeze it's a breeze

I always liked her.

I couldn't place who the singer is, I should know, but the song is great. Fits perfect with things today.

Stevie Nicks, formerly of Flatwood Mick. ;-) She's a hottie, interestingly enough she wrote a lot of their tunes and helped rescue the band from declining sales and dissolution - and she wrote Stop Draggin' My Heart Around for Tom Petty.

This song was not written by her, but was written for her. Jon Bon Jovi wrote quite a bit of the song.

You need a radio gig. I wish I could play your playlists.

I have a large collection of music, and enjoy putting together lists of it for my moods, which can vary.

Ah, Stevie. Was there ever a prettier and more popular, (and talented) lezzie? None that fueled my fantasies, that's for sure.

She went to high school here in Salt Lake; attended Highland High.

This is a great song, I remember it growing up as young teenager. Brings up some good memories.
