My whole life i was bought up around music, My mums music omg talk about the best music in history, My all time fav from my mums music is Stevie Nicks.... luv everything about her.
Her music hits a spot with me i dont know why, maybe its the memorys of my mum dancing with her friends in our loungeroom and us watching from the hall and her not knowing we were up, the free will the love the way my mother was when we werent meant to be watching. She was a free spirit, I see the way i am and i am so much like her, everyone my whole life has told me this but its not until now as a adult i can appreciate it. Anyway some of my fav songs... :)
Rhiannon is the story of a lady that is from another world ~ called the Bright world ~ and she leaves her kingdom to become the wife of a king ~ a mortal king ~ but goddesses really can't marry mortal kings, if they do they lose their powers ~ their magic powers. And they don't lose the knowledge of them they just ~they know everything that's going to happen they just can'tdo anything about it. Which is a much more difficult way to live than not having magic powers is to not be able to use them and know exactly what's coming and to not be able to tell anybody. So she comes down and does her whole trip, and it's just a whole story ~ it's a wonderful story.
And she has these birds that sing and that is the legend of the song of the birds of Rhiannon. And they sing this song that is uh, said takes away pain and suffering and if you hear the song you just sort of blank out and go away and then when you wake up everthing's all right. And it is a wonderful, wonderful story which I use a lot, because there's a lot of ~ there seems to be a lot of need for the story of Rhiannon around lately, because if people are sad or have lost anybody or something the story really makes a lot of sense.
