Official Counting Crows Website
Wow, A place to BLOG our adoration for all things Counting Crows?
Ok, I've just signed up, and it's a "school night" (i.e. Very busy day @ work tomorrow) so I can't stay and play. I'll just say that recently I found out about and a chance to download the covers you did last year for Valentine's Day, and was blown away (of course) on your version of some of those heart-breaker tunes.
Particularly, "You Might Think" by The Cars. If you've all not seen the video, that's a must-see that you can view at: http://www.covermesongs.com/2011/10/counting-crows-adam-duritz-rele...
In honor of my first short but sweet blog post, I'll just leave all of you with a quote from one of my absolute favorites (there are sooo many others, Holiday in Spain, Miami, Hard Candy, Goodnight Elizabeth, Colorblind, St. Robinson, All My Friends)...but...
"Asleep in perfect blue buildings,
Beside the green apple sea,
Gonna get me a little oblivion, baby,
Tryin' to keep myself away from myself..myself, and me..." ~ Adam Duritz
Coincidentally (or probably not), when we viewed and eventually bought our home here in Taxachusetts, we started referring to this labor of love as OUR "Perfect Blue Building" ~ it is, of course, a blue house with white trim.
Much love and appreciation for all the memories your songs bring, both from me (and also on behalf of my husband Bill, who originally showed me the magic that is...Counting Crows.)

I read about it here, which is an interesting read about how it came to be:

And, I didn't think I'd have a prayer of finding it still available, but it is! at that soundcloud link.

Don't know if you'll get an email alert on my comment since our conversation was sOO long ago, but do you ever post on this site? Have you seen how the spammers have taken over posting blog post after post with advertisments for all kinds of crap? You'd think the admins that run CC.Com would remove those, that's just blatant abuse of a nice free blog posting service. Argh, anyway, just wondered if you'd noticed since I posted my first blog post on my CC profile in just about a year and was shocked when I loaded up the list to see all recent blog posts.
Take care,
Cathy

Counting Crows On Tour
The GreyBird Foundation was established because we believe America is a dream in which the thoughts and needs of each and every person matter. Unfortunately, people feel small as the world expands and they forget that they ARE America.
So we find the people down the street from you who are trying to do their part to help and we try and help THEM. Get involved with the idea of being involved people. After all, it's your town, your country, your world, and no one will ever make as much of a difference as you can just by waking up and being a part of it.
what people are saying...
