Nearly a decade ago, as a senior in high school, I’d been talking to a guy. Graham introduced me to new music, the likes of which I wouldn’t have found on my own. As grand as that was, I am just as grateful that he familiarized me with my parents’ music. His favorites, Aerosmith, Clapton, Black Crowes, were already lying around my house. I’d heard a small bit of Clapton and Aerosmith, but never the Crowes. I suppose that’s why I still associate Chris Robinson et al. with Graham. Among his recommended songs was this one, She Talks to Angels. I’ve always loved the track, as evidenced by its TMJ selection, and I still do.
As a side note:
Frequently with songs, I pull up the music files from my own collection and post them to the blog. However, this song file is on my old computer, so I pulled up the youtube link. Every now and again with Youtube, I can’t help but read some of the comments. I never personally struggled with addiction, so I can’t begin to imagine the suffering induced by it. However, I know enough that while reading through the comments, I became immensely proud of and for the YouTubers who have battled back. May they keep fighting.
