Thanks, Dan; what a great choice! "Friends in Low Places" is one of my favorite songs by Garth Brooks!

That is an example of a man experiencing the pure joy of what he was always meant to be and do. Thanks so much for sharing this joy, Dan!

So look forward to Sundays and the Reason to Smile. I’m not avid country music fan, but I can enjoy a good country song. And over the years, I have found that not all musicians are entertainers. I mean, for example, I’ve seen Gordon Lightfoot on stage and I really like many of his songs, but he sits on a stool and strums his guitar. Now, in all fairness, that generally fits his music. But I really enjoy seeing a musician who puts on a show, like Elton John, Queen, Taylor Swift, Weird Al Yankovic and many others, including, of course, Garth Brooks. I’m tapping my foot and most definitely smilin’. Thanks, Dan!

My oldest son passed away, by his own hand, in 2008. This was one of his favorite of all times songs. He performed it in Karaoke all the time. Thank you so much for bringing me back good memories of this precious but short lived life. We all need music to get us through the tough times. This is one of those songs. I'm sorry First Lady, Michelle. When they go low, we need to go lower. Especially now.
