It’s hard to imagine a world without music. It’s not just what we do but rather what we are. It’s in our nature, our being, and it’s possibly the one unmistakably right thing we’ve done as a contributing species to the cosmos. Despite all our sins, we gave the universe, The Beatles. That’s gotta be worth something when we sit in judgement before the great karmic oneness of it all. Does Brittany Spears balance out Hitler? Probably not, but toss in Vera Lynn and Shania Twain's midsection and, correct me if I’m wrong, we have a winner. Music prevails.

If you’d like to throw one on the turntable, email an mp3 file, including artist, song and album.
