Song on my mind... "Have You Ever" by Brandi Carlile. Prompted by a video I saw on Adventure Journalist, I found myself digitally dusting off my Brandi Carlile playlist. As usual, a song I had glossed over so many times before suddenly caught my ear.

Have you ever wandered lonely through the woods?
And everything there feels just as it should
You're part of the life there
You're part of something good
If you've ever wandered lonely through the woods

Have you ever stared into a starry sky?
Lying on your back you're asking why
What's the purpose I wonder who am I
If you've ever stared into a starry sky

Have you ever been out walking in the snow?
Tried to get back to where you were before
You always end up not knowing where to go
If you've ever been out walking in the snow
If you'd ever been out walking you would know

Carlile is one of the few artists I'd pay money to see perform in person. She's actually coming to San Francisco in October to promote her new album, Give Up The Ghost. With any luck, we'll be able to catch her concert.
