I was completely smitten with this song when I was in High School, and I sang it multiple times a day. I still love it. It’s a Tori classic.

Her new album was just released, and this is probably my favorite song off of the album. This version is different from the one on the album, and I think I love it even more. What a powerhouse.

I think I do a solid job of not pushing my political and sociological beliefs on people, but I think that this is extremely important. Our Country spends gobs of money on some pretty ridiculous stuff. Let’s make sure people can get tested for HIV, have better access to birth control, and other important things! This is important. Please help by taking action and signing the letter on their website. Help make a difference.

My childhood would have been extremely lackluster without Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers. My high school science classes would have been slightly less exciting without video clips and episodes from shows like Nova. Now, in adulthood, my everyday includes a bunch of programs and podcasts that humor me, educate me, and enlighten me thanks to the likes of NPR and all they offer.

Did you know that 170 million Americans use public media every month – over half the U.S. population? 170 Million Americans for Public Broadcasting needs your help to protect government funding for this vital national resource which costs $1.35 a year per American and delivers six times that in non-commercial programming available for free to 98% of the public. Get involved: Go to 170MillionAmericans.org and sign up!

Do whatever you can to help. Follow the cause on Twitter if that’s your thing. Follow them on Facebook too! Get your friends involved and spread the word. This is important.
