Amazing radio...

I love it when I randomly listen to the radio and something comes on that is absolutely awesome... Something that fits "you", ya know?

This song came on our local public radio station last Saturday and I didn't catch the name afterwards. I looked for three hours for this song on the internet before finally emailing the station and I just got a reply! Yay! I really like this song. It's called "Girrrl" by Lojo Russo, who is a folk artist from the Quad Cities.

You can listen to the music here and just click on the connection you want. It's also the music I've put up on my xanga.



"Girrrl"

Once upon a time I could fly.
All I ever had to do was,
Close my eyes,
And I was:
A pirate captain,
On a distant sea,
Tarzan swinging on a vine,
Through the jungle trees.
Because I didn’t know,
I could be strong,
And still be a girl.

Once upon a time I would dream,
A magic carpet ride,
Where I could be:
The King of England,
Or even Robin Hood,
A knight in shining armor,
Out doing good.
Because I didn’t know,
I could be strong,
And still be a girl.

And I would give anything,
Just to see their faces,
Smiling back from my history pages!
Where are my heroes?
Where are my heroes?

Once upon a time I was blind
To the other half,
Holding up the sky,
But now I,
See so much clearer,
And I know so much more,
And there nothing standing between me
And what’s knocking on my door!
Because now I know,
I can be strong,
And still be a girl!

And still be a girl.

Once upon a time I could fly.

And still be a girl…
