Soundtrack for a Simple Life

Music can elicit feelings happy and sad, and bring memories flooding back. And then there are certain songs that can get you in the mood to just slow down and put your feet up or dance barefooted in your backyard.

Here's my soundtrack for a simple life, starting with an ode to my blog. (Technically, I guess my blog would be an ode to the song.)

Give Me the Simple Life - Rosemary Clooney
Dancin' - Chris Isaak
Easy - Commodores
My Baby Just Cares for Me - Nina Simone
I Could Write a Book - Harry Connick Jr.
Closer to Fine - Indigo Girls
Going Back to Harlan - Emmylou Harris
Everyday Is Like Sunday - The Pretenders
Secret O' Life - James Taylor
King of the Road - Roger Miller
Anything But Love - Squirrel Nut Zippers
J'Ai Deux Amours - Madeleine Peyroux
Days Like This - Van Morrison
One Particular Harbour - Jimmy Buffett
