I got super into the Carole King Pandora station the other day. While other moms where trying to be cool by listening to Top 40 stations, my mom forced us to listen to Carole King what seemed like every. single. day in the car on the way to school (my bff Courtnie still brings it up!). She would say, "When you have a car, you can listen to whatever you want." Of course, now I'm so glad she exposed me to such great music and I absolutely love everything she made us listen to... Thanks mom!
Speaking of great tunes, I really want to see the film Troubadours. It's about the Troubadour in the 60's and the rise of the singer-songwriter, featuring James Taylor and Carole King. Has anyone seen it yet?
she's amazing. did you ever see the children's movie called 'really rosie'? carole king sang all of the songs... my sister and i used to LOVE it! last year we got the soundtrack on itunes, it brings back so many memories.
ReplyDeletethat movie sounds amazing.... i need to see it! miss you! xo
ReplyDeleteTisha - I haven't seen that movie! Must see!
ReplyDeleteTaryn - Dude,you feel even further away and I miss you even more! haha Maybe it's because we can't text?! Hope you're having the time of your life! xoxo
I just saw it this weekend!!! It was amazing! My appreciation for Carol King is now through the roof. xo
ReplyDeleteoooh i NEED to see that! also, so thankful for hippie parents // not top 40 parents!
ReplyDeletethis just put the biggest smile on my face - my mom did the same thing and every time I hear Carole King (or Joni Mitchell) I can't help but think of my mom.
