Mom'sToo Sexy

Amazon.com : Music Sampler

Imagine my surprise when I discovered tonight that Emma's ringtone for me when I call her cellphone is a song by Right Said Fred called I'm Too Sexy! She tells me it has been there forever, but of course I never hear it, so we had a good laugh while I listened to it with her. (when I called her cellphone Sunday she was in the car with Maggie, and I could hear her laughing - now I know why).

If you dare, click on the link to the Amazon music sampler and choose "I'm too sexy." I watched the video on You Tube; it's pretty funny.. The lyrics on the ringtone are I'm too sexy for my shirt, too sexy for my shirt, I'm too sexy for Milan, New York and Japan....

Paul Winter at St. John the Divine

Listening to the brilliant Paul Winter as he leads the annual celebration of the winter solstice at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City. Click on the heading to follow the link to hear his soprano saxophone call to the sun on the longest night of the year. I think this is where I want to be next December.
