Together, Wherever We Go from, I guess, Gypsy. Honestly, I had no idea where the song was from until I looked it up about twelve seconds ago. It was sung on a tape I had by a woman named Rory. I can't find her anywhere online, but the tape I had was her singing all these fabulous showtunes. Of everything I listened to as a child, this is one of the first songs I remember hearing that made me really feel something.

Lots of Primary (Sunday school) songs... "Give said the little stream, Give oh Give, Give oh Give! Give said the little stream as it hurried down the hill I'm small I know but where ever I go, the grass grows greener still Singing singing all the day, Give away oh Give away! Singing singing all the day, Give oh Give away!" And musicals... when you grow up in college towns, you see a lot of musicals... we had all the records, too. I was partially raised by Rogers and Hammerstein. "I am sixteen going on seventeen, I know that I'm naive, Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet, And willingly I believe. I am sixteen going on seventeen, Innocent as a rose, Bachelor dandies, drinkers of brandies, What do I know of those? Totally unprepared am I, To face a world of men, Timid and shy and scared am I, Of things beyond my ken. I need someone older and wiser, Telling me what to do You are seventeen going on eighteen, I'll depend on you."

When I was a kid, my favorite movie was Wayne's World, but every time it got to the part where Alice Cooper preforms "Feed My Frankenstein" it would scare the crap out of me and I would run and hide under my bed until my mom would fast forward the tape. Now, I hate Alice Cooper.

These two excertps have stuck with me for years. Every now and then I remember them and think to myself "wow, how true."

I especially loved this song because if I sang along I could say damn without my mother smacking me . . . . How much does it cost, I'll buy it The time is all we've lost, I'll try it But he can't even run his own life I'll be damned if he'll run mine, Sunshine

I'd be willing to bet I heard James Taylor in the womb.I know the lyrics of just about any of his songs by heart. I think of songs like "You've Got a Friend," this part especially:
