#7 Mason Jennings

Ok, I have been a little blogging remiss. Number seven (on my random list of musicians people should listen to at least one time) is Mason Jennings.

Sometimes I get in a happy musical rut, where I want to hear a particular song at least one time every day. I'm like a toddler who wants to have the same book read to me every night before I go to bed. Yes, Green Eggs and Ham again. That's how I've been lately with Mason Jenning's "If You Need a Reason."

This song is poetry. The lyrics flow in a stream of rhyming consciousness that capture his search for someone who will say to him, "If you need a reason as to why you're here, you don't need to look farther than me."

Any men in the Geek Radio audience take note. If you want to let a woman know you're interested in her play this song. "All that's missing, all that's lost. Every hope at any cost. Every dream too good to come true, floods my heart when I'm with you. And if you need a reason as to why you're here, you don't need to look farther than me." Let her know that you think of her when you hear those lyrics. Maybe not until at least the second date though...

Here is another Mason Jennings song, "Be Here Now" captured by reinarama:
