      I had ripped this to listen to in my car years ago and lost the CD... and the memory faded. This popped up and my eyes welled with tears. Since the time I lost the CD I taught myself Ukulele and I IMMEDIATELY ran to my studio and played along with the song... total chills. I love it.

    Two voices that God had intended to be born next door to each other.
    Fate separated them, luck and love brought the two back together.
    Terribly beautiful.
    A bit of Heaven, and a bit of the grave when they harmonize.
    Well Done

      She is one of those female performers who I would absolutely love to just sit and get to know ... just for even a drink . She seems like she’s lived lifetimes , I can hear it in her voice. It always amazes me that two people can find each other in this lifetime and then find that their voices simply flow into a DNA 🧬 COIL of pure perfection ~ together 😳.
      That to me is a mystery and a joy of the sweetest kind.
      These two are timeless
      They must have sung together in many lifetimes.
      Music is such a blessing.

    Well I probably should be
    Drug out to sea
    Where I can't hurt no one
    And no one can hurt me
    At least I'd be free
    And probably I'd see
    What caused me to be
    So detached completely
    Jumping a rope
    Through a thick cloud of smoke
    Fumbling through all
    Of the letters and the notes
    The ones that you wrote
    Did they keep me afloat
    Or just wrap 'round my throat
    l Like a noose on a rope
    Probably both
    So lay low baby
    I won't be back anytime soon
    If it gets too lonely
    I will follow you 'round in this tune
    I don't know what to do
    What I'd do if I knew
    But we go through our day
    And get by and get through
    But my heart is with you
    You probably knew
    Your love is like glue
    So lay low baby
    I won't be back anytime soon
    If it gets too lonely
    I will follow you 'round in this tune
    Oooooo ......... Oooooo
    So lay low baby
    Just for a little while more
    If you can't keep waiting
    I will find my way back to your door

    Love and harmony and beauty sonically exemplified. Also, can we just acknowledge how handsome Michael is? Damn. I’d be jealous if I didn’t admire Cary Ann so much! Love that these two were brought together, and share their work with us :)
