Something More

Rainy days are here. I love them and especially rainy evenings when the lights reflect on the my walkway and the leaves. So pretty and makes you feel warm and safe inside.

 

I am joining in  with Saturday 9.

Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every

Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love to answer questions, however, and here are today's questions

Saturday 9: Something More (2005)

Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.

 

1) Sugarland's lead singer Jennifer Nettles describes a busy morning that begins with a cup of coffee. Do you start your day with a cup of joe?

Sometimes, yes.   I can start off with water too just as easily and a cup of tea can be nice.

2) When she gets home from work, she sings that her house is dirty but says housework can wait until she has a glass of wine. Is there a particular chore on your "to-do" list that you keep putting off?

vacuuming because the vacuum is hard for me to push and handle.

3) The lyrics tell us happiness is something we can create. Do you agree?

Well, in a way, yes.  We can create it with good thoughts and imagination but true happiness requires  real things like religion, nature, food, safety... you get the idea.

4) In the video of this week's song, the members of Sugarland ride along in a vintage Cadillac. Are you one of those drivers who has a nickname for your car?

No, not at all.

5) The group hitches a ride in a red truck. The auto insurance industry tells us that Americans favor vehicles in the grayscale colors. Nearly 80% of cars on the road today are white, black, gray or silver. What color is your vehicle? 

British racing green.

6) Nettles achieved her dream of performing on Broadway when she took over the role of Roxy in Chicago. What's your fantasy job?

7) She wrote a cookbook with her mom called Sweet, Savory and Simple. When it was originally published, it was spiral bound. That way, it could be laid flat on the counter as the cook tries one of the recipes. How many cookbooks do you own?

 Somewhere in the neighborhood of 20 or so.

8) In 2005, when "Something More" was topping the country charts, Paul McCartney won a People's Choice Award for his concert tour. Do you have any plans to enjoy music performed live between now and the end of the year?

I am not a big fan of live performances today because almost every band/singer use auto tune, etc.  It's a cheap deception and it's a rip off to pay to hear fake music.

9) Random question: Who received the most recent compliment you gave?

An older lady on her hair.

Magazine Covers...

It's that time of year again.
