Music that Stirs
The radio was just playing Crosby Stills and Nash's To the Last Whale - Wind on the Water. That song always stirs my emotions. There are only a couple other songs that choke me up like that (thank goodness!): Cherokee People, by Paul Revere and the Raiders. Why Can't We Live Together?, by Sade.
