Are you a boater?
This is a great song to blast while on a boat leaving the marina or going up a canal, rubbing it into the faces of people standing near the shore. Cause you’re on a boat and you better never forgit it!

Kingsize Mattresses Store in UK
Are you tired of being squashed up in bed? Do you think it is time for a mattress upgrade? If you feel that you could do with a bigger mattress, there are many king size mattresses available for you to choose from, all of which prove to be very comfortable. You don’t have to suffer with a stiff body in the mornings anymore. Those days are over!
When you are looking for a specific type of mattress then you will already know what you want, but if you have no idea about mattresses and wouldn’t know where to start then there are options that could help you. If you have a king sized bed, then obviously a king size mattress is what you need. Let’s have a look at some of your options:
The Cotton Comfort mattress is one option you have. It is a spring mattress with medium comfort, and an open coil spring unit. It’s diamond medium quilted and it features a durable stitch bond cover so it won’t tear easily. It will last a long time and is generally comfortable for a person of average weight, but also comfortable for heavy individuals.
The Bedstead Deluxe Mattress is deep quilted, with a thickness of 21cm. It is firm enough to support two people properly, provides extra edge support and has an open coil spring unit. With this mattress you won’t wake up stiff. You will wake up feeling refreshed after a wonderful night of rest and your partner will have rested well too, without you tossing and turning the whole night.
If you have back problems with the mattress you are currently using, then the Back Care Mattress is for you. This mattress is hand tufted, offering you firmer support. It has a steel rod edge which makes it firmer too and it has open coil springs. It’s perfect for anyone who doesn’t want to wake up with back problems anymore.
Even if you sleep in your bed alone, it is nice to have enough space especially if you are a busy sleeper. Rolling around and tossing and turning at night are common problems for many people, so by having a large bed you might be more comfortable during the night. You won’t wake up when you are moving because there is more space.
There are mainly five different categories you have to choose from when looking for a king size mattress. These are contract mattresses, memory foam mattresses, health foam mattresses, pocket sprung mattresses and coil sprung mattresses. Depending on where you purchase the mattress, there might be other types available. You never know what you may come across.
The prices of these mattresses will differ according to their specifications. Some may be cheaper than others but they should all be affordable. Even if they are slightly on the pricey side, think nothing of it as it is going to benefit you greatly. Rather spend the money on buying a good mattress than buying a cheap king size mattress that isn’t going to be comfortable.

Patty Griffin’s warm and welcome “Kisses”
I attended a concert earlier tonight at Joe’s Pub here in NYC where Griffin performed most of the tracks from 1000 KISSES live. That, after weeks of daily aural intake of an advance copy of the CD. Seeing Griffin perform live will always be one of my favorite things. Greedily, I always leave her shows wanting more. But, happily, I’m always filled to brimming with the quality and honesty of what she delivered.
I’ve been hooked on this remarkably talented artist’s music since the folky LIVING WITH GHOSTS was released nearly 6 years ago. FLAMING RED came two years later and shared a similar quality of songwriting with its predecessor, albeit with a bigger, bolder sound behind it than LIVING WITH GHOSTS.
Now, 1000 KISSES curls easily into the ear with a little of both those previous outings evident.
Before the wrapper is even off the CD, the first thing most listeners will notice is that 1000 KISSES offers the fewest vocal tracks from a Griffin album to date (Track 10 is an instrumental reprise of “Mil Besos,” which I’ll get to later). But Griffin has never been one to opt for quantity over quality, which one would be foolish to hold against her when what she presents is so solid and whole just as it is. As has been happily reported in industry magazines, this is undoubtedly Griffin’s most honest and emotional album yet. And that’s saying a lot considering how much those qualities were already evident in her previous work.
A number of fans balked at the forward-thinking approach to production on FLAMING RED, complaining it was too beefy, too rocky. Those folks should be pleased to know that the production this time around certainly leans more toward the organic sound of Griffin’s debut CD. But it should be noted, the sometimes jangly barebones structure of LIVING WITH GHOSTS has been refined in 1000 KISSES, with much of that credit going to the production and instrumental talents of Griffin’s trusted guitarist, Doug Lancio.
I’ve never had any complaints about Griffin’s style or the way she chooses to best highlight her work. She’s adventurous. Thank goodness for that. That spirit continues today. To me, the most exciting aspect of 1000 KISSES is the addition of a couple of successful forays into places previously only alluded to by this increasingly ubiquitous singer/songwriter with the eternally charming talent of reminding us of the familiar and forgotten.
If there’s a weak point in the album, it’s “Chief.” Griffin reports that the song was inspired by someone she remembers from her childhood. As such, I’m sure it’s very personal to her, but I don’t know how well that feeling translates to the listener. It’s a perfectly good song, but not one to which I believe a large number of listeners will be able to relate on their own personal levels. At worst, it will glide by unnoticed.
But, even in the unlikely event that you end up hating that song, the rest of the album more than makes up for it. I won’t go into every track, but a few tracks deserve special acknowledgment.
In “Making Pies,” Griffin lovingly tips her hat to her childhood neighbors, the working women who schlepped to the Table Talk pie factory each day to churn out pies. This wonderful song was supposed to appear on SILVER BELL, the album Griffin was working on when she was dropped by her former label. Fortunately for all us, this track survived the frutrating snafu that kept its original mates from being included on 1000 KISSES. I have a mental short list of favorite Griffin songs and this is easily in the Top 5 now; in fact, it’s probably coming in at 2. This song expertly shows Griffin at her most economical as a songwriter and most poetic as an artist.
Several reviewers have called 1000 KISSES Griffin’s most “personal” album yet. To some, it might seem odd to read that sort of comment, especially given that Griffin has included three cover tunes on the 10-track album. But she made her selections wisely. Each of the covers Griffin chose to cover not only fit perfectly with the mood and maturity of the album, they are beautifully transformed by the ways of her voice.
Springsteen’s “Stolen Car” sounds like it was written for Griffin to cover. She’s able to put a softly bittersweet and entirely feminine spin on what had already started as a tender heartbreaker from a man who was lost somewhere in his own life. Not even Melissa Etheridge’s “You Can Sleep While I Drive” can match the quiet emotion Griffin puts into this one.
“Tomorrow Night,” for which Griffin credits Bob Dylan for teaching her, is one of two tracks on the album about which I’m most enthusiastic. If you enjoyed the smoky, jazzy feel of “Go Now” on FLAMING RED, you’ll love Griffin’s treatment of “Tomorrow Night.” It swings slow like a Patsy Cline piece. I’m excited to see Griffin stretching her wings further into her own spot-on interpretations of jazz, blues and gospel.
And then, finally, there’s the title track. Well, it’s not really the title track. It’s the old Tejano standard, “Mil Besos,” from which the English-translated album title was pulled by Griffin who humbly blames the decision on being a ‘gringa.’ But there’s no need for her to be humble, especially for her decision to take her cellist’s advice and tackle Spanish lyrics. With sultry flair and a hint of bombast, Griffin puts her stamp on “Mil Besos” and leaves the listener, once again, blown away.
Thanks for the KISSES, Patty. You and your music are beautiful.
Haunting, Spare, Accoustic Gem
On “1000 Kisses,” Patty Griffin manages the difficult trick of producing a hard-hitting album of accoustic songs. Bruce Springsteen’s “Nebraska” has always been the benchmark for such efforts, and “1000 Kisses” stands up nicely next to that masterpiece. Griffen even covers The Boss’s song “Stolen Car” from his album “The River” and manages to move it into “Nebraska” territory. Of the original songs on the album, the opener “Rain” sets the tone, while “Making Pies,” “Long Ride Home,” and “Nobody’s Crying” are the other gems.
Emmylou Harris puts in a guest appearance, which is fitting since the sound of this album somewhat resembles Harris’s recent solo work. The only drawbacks are the album’s brevity (10 songs, less than 40 minutes) and the fact that the last two cuts, the Spanish language version of the title track and a short instrumental number, really don’t work. Otherwise, this album is as haunting as any that has been released in the last few years.
Overall, an accoustic tour-de-force from an artist with talent to burn.
1000 Kisses couldn’t be sweeter
It was a long wait, but the new release by Patty Griffin, 1000 Kisses, is a lyrical and musical masterpiece. Easily the most powerful release of this year, or perhaps of many years, it is a bold display of complex lyrics, textured arrangements and a singing voice that strings the listener along, begging for more. One of the many highlights for me is the opening track Rain, it starts softly, builds in complexity, with beautiful spiraling layers of music and vocals rich with emotion, letting one down gently again at the end, like a roller coaster. Patty Griffin again shows with Stolen Car that only she can sing a Bruce Springsteen song better than the Boss himself. But it is the originals that steal the show on 1000 Kisses. Making Pies, Be Careful, Long Drive Home, with otherworldly harmonies from Emmylou Harris and the stellar Nobody’s Crying pack enough emotional punch to keep one listening to this CD over and over again. I cannot say enough about the quality of this singer and this recording. I just hope that we don’t have to wait as long for the next one, I wish someone could/would release Silver Bell!!!
