Song: Pocketful of Poetry
Artist: Mindy Gledhill, Pocketful of Poetry

I'm going to be spotlighting Mindy Gledhill and her album Pocketful of Poetry this week! Honestly, this is to help me focus on non-Christmas music because I've been so hooked on it lately!

I am a big fan of Mindy Gledhill. Her music is so whimsical, cute and happy. It makes me happy! It makes me want to run around barefoot and be a kid again :) This song is so light-hearted and fun, I feel like throwing my hands in the air and running away to Wonderland....I love the music video because it is so Alice in Wonderland inspired. And I love that world of nonsense and make believe. I am grateful that music can make me feel young and carefree amidst the challenges of real life. I need the escape every now and then, and this is the perfect place to go.


I don't do well if I'm kept behind 
An office desk inside 
It makes me lose my mind
Which wonders endlessly
Where all the birds fly freely
With their silhouettes and perfect symmetry

I've got a pocketful of poetry
I've got a head full of songs, 
A heart with wings
You couldn't tie me down to anything 
And that's enough for me

I draw doodles of eccentric faces
In the margin spaces of important papers
Then I hand them in with a comedic grin
You ask if I need help, oh where do I begin?

I've got a pocketful of poetry
I've got a head full of songs, 
A heart with wings
You couldn't tie me down to anything 
And that's enough for me

 People are good, loving, they tell me
Do as you should, all will be well they say
Life is a test, please give the best answer
A or B or C, pick one instantly
What if there's so much more to me?

I've got a pocketful of poetry
I've got a head full of songs, 
A heart with wings
You couldn't tie me down to anything 
And that's enough for me

I've got a pocketful of poetry
I've got a head full of songs, 
A heart with wings
You couldn't tie me down to anything 
And that's enough for me

I've got a pocketful of poetry
I've got a head full of songs, 
A heart with wings
You couldn't tie me down to anything 
And that's enough for me

Morticia and Gomez Addams Love Song: "Rot Next to You"

Song: Morticia and Gomez Addams Love Song: "Rot Next to You" Artist: The Hound + The Fox Wow this is so good! 🥀 So, funny enough, I just watched the 1990's Addams Family film for the first time eva a couple days ago and then  this video pops up on my youtube feed (if this isn't proof that the government is stalking us through technology IDK what is! 😱). Anyway, even though I didn't care for the movie all that much, I thought this song captured Morticia and Gomez perfectly! And it's actually a really, beautiful love song for Halloween time! I especially like the bridge (and I'm pretty sure it's a direct quote from the movie because when I heard them singing it I was like "That sounds familiar...." 🤔). We all need somebody to rot next to at the end.... 😂 Sorry about the dark humor 😈🖤🥀 I see you like  A night with a full moon  I feel you like a flame  You cast a spell on me  I like how you make me weak  I play you like a game  I hope w

Siren Call

Song: Siren Call Artist: Hanson This song is off of Hanson's Fan Club EP: Loud (2016). I have been slightly obsessed with this haunting song as of late. This song is about dealing with depression ( Zac Hanson even said so ! Be forewarned, explicit language is used in this video. I'm so sorry). Once I heard Zac explain the meaning and message behind this song it made so much sense to me! I have always loved it and I've always known it had a powerful message but I could never quite figure out what it was. This song is about struggling. Being weighed-down by the burdens and challenges life brings to each and every one of us. When we stop and allow ourselves to "give in" to the pain and sadness that comes with the stress of life, that's when we begin to slip and fall into a deep depression. That's when our "Siren's Call" us. And pull us down. No straighter path than to struggle .... This is perfect. And it's true. Life is a constan

Sally's Song and Corpse Bride Medley

Song: Sally's Song and Corpse Bride Medley Artist: From Youtube I found this really creepy, cool medley/cover on youtube. I really like it! Major  Halloween  vibes from two  Halloween  inspired movies. The  Corpse Bride  lyrics were written by the person who posted/sang this song. She does a great job! Thanks for sharing  Trickywi ! I sense there's something in the wind That feels like tragedy's at hand And though I'd like to stand by him Can't shake this feeling that I have The worst is just around the bend And does he notice my feelings for him? And will he see how much he means to me? I think it's not to be Under a tree at quarter three, I had some hope in me But life was taken from me, but I did not feel peace I made a vow within my gown that love will come to me But there he is and suddenly I had been found I adore him What will become of my dear friend Where will his actions lead us then? Although I'd like to join the crowd In their enth
