Time to come together – Equestria Girls (2016) d88
If you don’t watch the video (and even if you do) it’s a pretty good song. For my friends at All In. It’s time for us to come together. It’s the only way that things will get better. It’s time for us to take a stand. So come on and lend a helping hand

The album title is as hopeful as the song: From “11 Obscenely Optimistic Songs For Ukulele: A Micro-Folk Record For the 21st Century And Beyond” I believe in unicorns and wishing on a star. I believe that love can heal broken hearts. So cover me with pixie dust — I’m jumpin’ off the roof — […]
Take up your spade – Sara Watkins (2012) d79
It’s a gorgeous morning here in the Midwest, perfect weather for this song I first heard on the “Welcome to Night Vale” podcast. Shake off your shoes, leave yesterday behind you.
