How many of you listen to the same songs, over and over and over again? The same musician, over and over and over again?
I do. Herself does.
Today, as on other days, the songs of Ben Harper accompany us as we write, as we clean, as we cook. His music is direct, intimate, raw. It speaks to us.
I cannot explain why his Amen, Omen fills the void as no other song does. There was a time when this song reminded Herself of her friends; it still does, though it is now much more. It is a prayer, a sorrow, a remembrance, a call to strength, a wish and a question.
It is perfect for right now.
