And I don't know about the rest of you, but I know I am enjoying all of the goofy memes and videos that have cropped up.
For today's music break, I was going to post S.J. Tucker's "Storm" - it seems fitting, don't you think? - before I remembered that I shared that song with you all rather recently, for my 1st bloggiversary.
Then I found this hilarious Hurricane Sandy playlist, so instead I'm going to share my favorite song from that list: "Hurricane Drunk" by Florence + the Machine. (And with all of the hurricane parties I keep hearing about, it also seems quite apt!) I have this album and listen to it all the time - her voice is just so powerful and interesting. And from a neopagan perspective, I love all of the metaphysical imagery she uses in her lyrics and videos, including The Raven in this video.
And because Samhain is almost here (and I love ya'll), I'm going to post another Halloweeny song as a bonus. This is a gorgeous song by Damh the Bard called "Samhain Eve." I'm not always a fan of his music, but I give him major props for being a long-standing, prolific presence in the neopagan musical community, with a fairly significant fan base from what I can gather.
Edit: sorry for the missing song! I guess between Monday and Tuesday, much of Damh's music was changed to no longer playable or shareable on his bandcamp website. Here is a video with lyrics instead:
Stay dry! And remember, if the power goes out, being neopagan has its benefits - you always have plenty of candles around! ;)
