Mine are


1. More than you can bear/The storm is over now- Kirk Franklin & God's Property ( i believe). I always listened to it but after i lost my job in 2003 after 3 days I just listened and let it all go. It is a very cathartic song for me.

2. Never dreamed you'd leave in Summer- Stevie Wonder
Makes me think of my dad who passed in the summer of 93.


3. For some weird reason Don't you worry bout a thing by Stevie Wonder. When i listen to it during my mini concerts in the car it makes me think of everything me and my mother have been through and that we will be ok. I am now married but it was just her and I for the longest time after my dad passed.
