Flavor of the Week...

It's amazing to me how the music industry works. I know that they usually start off a single in a big town and then it slowly works it's way across the country. A song can be a hit in California or New York for weeks, maybe months, before I've even heard of it. At least that's what I think...I may be wrong.

Anyway, I am just learning of a guy out there that I'm in love with. Bryan happened to catch him on CMT of all things - he's not a country singer. He went out and bought his CD and I'm hooked already. His name is Marc Broussard and he is so soulful (& yummy!). I love finding new music out there, and now I'll probably listen to his CD about 80 times and then go and by his other one. How can it be that this guy has two CD's out and I've never heard of him? Oh well, just wanted to share. Every song on his "Carencro" CD is totally different, and that is one of the things that I love about him. However, I do feel that you will either love him or hate him. Here's some lyrics from a couple of my faves:

THE BEAUTY OF WHO YOU ARE

There's a soft sweet space on the back of your neck

Smells like rain

There's a way you look at me baby

Heals my pain

I've studied every inch of your body

Baby what's on your mind

The touch of your skin just pulls me in

Every single time

There's a slight conversation

Filled with hidden revelations in your eyes

[CHORUS]

Baby I'm so into you

Every whisper from your soul to my heart

Baby I know its true

You're a sweet little mystery sent to me from the stars

And that's the beauty of who you are

There's a faith you're savin' for a rainy day

I could use right now

There's a way you move my soul to sing

Only you know how
You are a sensual salvation

You're the holiest temptation

Baby I'm never, never, never gonna be the same

[Chorus]

I can't explain it or begin to conceive

All I know is that you make me believe

[Chorus]

LET ME LEAVE

How many times have I come to you

How many times have you taken me in

How have you never quite realized

That this will be nothing more than what it's been

Why is it that I return to the scene of the crime

Though there's nothing I need

Between the moments that linger before us

Haven't you wondered why I always leave

Let me

Be who I am

Let me

Leave while I can

You know love don't find

This sort of man

So just let me leave

While I can

How many times have I come to you

Beaten and broken and under attack

How can you look in my eyes and my heart

And not see that there's something I lack

Why is it that I'm as bad as I am

But I know that you'll never believe

Why do you still have to love me

When all I have done is lie and deceive

Let me

Be who I am

Let me

Leave while I can

You know love don't find

This sort of man

So just let me leave

While I Can

Can't give you what you need

And I'm so tired that I can't breathe

And I don't know if you can see,

But my ship is goin' down

And I tried my best to be a man

So I set you free while I still can

Cause I can't seem to change who I am

So just let me

Be who I am

Oh, oh, let me

Leave while I can

You know love don't find

This sort of man

So just let me

Leave while I can
