Long have I searched second hand for a copy of Norah Jone's Come Away With Me. Looked up and down the coast and looked hard but only met with indifferent luck. I managed to unearth copies twice now, but both experiences were marred by finding the case empty. Imagine my joy, then, when yesterday I stumbled upon a copy of it in the stacks at Goodwill! Clean box, no scratches on the cd! Super clean! Popped that cd into my small stack and then took off next door to finish up my grocery shopping.
So, to finish up this short and sweet post I slapped that cd in the deck last night..and waited. Put it off till morning. I've listened to that title all too many times now and know what kind of emotional hand grenade it can be. Sunday morning came late but it came all the same. Started it up and...what the heck. It wasn't Norah Jones at all..it was The Dave Matthews Band!
Okay. It was a clean copy, a piece of music I didn't have in my collection. Not quite what I would have spent three dollars on yesterday but still. Another piece of music you turned me onto a while back. In the meantime that cd you burned for me, that very same Norah Jones I thought I bought yesterday now has a very clean and pretty box to sit in. Your writing, new case, all the lyrics. Into the satchel.
The search continues.
