Songs I’ve Been Enjoying

 I’ve been an Enya fan since I was a very little kid, but I never heard If I Could Be Where You Are. It’s the perfect song for a missing person. A couple years ago, I tried blogging about each individual missing person that might be alive and why. It got overwhelming, because there are so many of them. Now, I plan to just write a “why a lot of missing people are probably still alive” post in general. May many of them be found alive in 2025. 

Courage to Change by Sia. Every time I hear a new Sia song, I like her more and more. Did you know that when I was little, I wanted to be called Sia because my Greek name is Dionysia?  Most Greek women named Dionysia are named Denise in English, but Denise didn’t flow with my maiden name. My parents wouldn’t let me go by Sia, though, and if I tried to now, it wouldn’t work because of the singer. Still what an inspirational song!

The Wayseer Manifesto is a little old. I remember when it came out over a decade ago. Some of the scenes are inspirational. Some kind of didn’t age well. I’m not sure if that guy was trying to start a cult or a movement, but the message is nice. 

Angry Hula performed at the Merrie Monarch festival in Hawaii always makes me cry. I love the lady that chants at the beginning. She looks like my godmother actually.  Another beautiful performance during another Merrie Monarch festival.
