Rain and Stones


How nice is it when you are inside snug on the couch under a blanket and big, fat rain drops are pattering against your windows? We are in the middle of our driest spring ever in southern Australia - and in the grip of a long drought with no end in sight - so rain on the windows is welcome in more ways than one.


More of the Stones

I bought Angus and Julia Stone's album A Book Like This on iTunes last night. I like it a lot. There's some really beautiful guitar and strings on there, particularly in Here We Go Again. I couldn't find a decent video for it, so here's a song called Bella.

Lying in bed at night and listening to the sound of the rain outside is something I love, and just thinking about it gives me a cosy feeling. :)

I love the sound of rain. We are in a drought also so ... when it does rain, my plants dance (me, too).

Thank you for sharing "Bella" and "Angus and Julia Stone" ... it was lovely ... or should I say bellissimo!

Take Care!

Hi Julian, just as well simply thinking about listening to the rain makes you feel cosy, hey?

Hello small footprints. Glad you liked Bella! I highly recommend their album - A Book Like This.

Thanks for sharing Angus and Julia Stone, I like their sound, didn`t know they were aus either so still learning me.

What I like listening to at the moment, on the radio anyway, Kings Of Leon; sex on fire.Good beat with a guitar going on in background.Not always my cuppa, but cool at the moment. :)
