Listening to Music | The Beauty Around Us

Dancing in the Sky

I saw this video shared on a friend’s Facebook page, who shared it from another friend’s page. “Dancing in the Sky” by Dani and Lizzy has been shared thousands of times on Facebook and YouTube, for just reason. The words of the song are beautiful and heartfelt. The vocals are amazing!

“Dancing in the Sky” lyrics

What does it look like in heaven
Is it peaceful and free like they say
Does the sun shine bright forever
Have your fears and your pain gone away

‘Cause here on earth it feels like everything … good is missing, since you left
Here on earth everything is different, there is an emptiness

I hope you’re dancing in the sky
I hope you’re singing with the angels’ choir
I hope the angels, know what they have
I bet it’s nice up in heaven since you arrived

Tell me, what do you do up in heaven
Are your days filled with love and light
Is there music? Is there art and invention
Tell me are you happy and more alive

‘Cause here on earth it feels like everything … good is missing, since you left
Here on earth everything is different, there is an emptiness

I hope you’re dancing in the sky
I hope you’re singing with the angels’ choir
I hope the angels, know what they have
I bet it’s nice up in heaven since you arrived

iTunes + iPod = Great Entertainment!

In December last year I received an iPod for having the most upsells in the call center at which I work on a part-time basis. I’d never had an MP3 player, and I continue to be enthralled with the convenience afforded by my iPod to listen to music or audiobooks while sitting, lying down, riding, and walking. I especially like that I can listen to music or audiobooks in the dark, while sitting or lying down.

This week I imported my CD collection into iTunes. I now have 84 albums and 980 songs from which to choose to put on my iPod. I like that iTunes breaks down music into genres. It didn’t surprise me that country music predominates my CD collection. What DID surprise me was that, if desired, I could put ALL of the music that I imported on my iPod. My iPod’s storage capacity is 8GB. My CD collection totals 4.86GB, or 2.4 days of listening pleasure.
