I think one of my all-time favourite albums is Paul Simon's Graceland. I first listened to it at my friend's house years ago. Over the years I've never gotten tired of it. It contains so many different styles of music - both American and South African (I had no idea I would end up in South Africa one day).
I was driving down Zambesi Road the other day, listening to my favourite song on that album, "You Can Call Me Al" when it dawned on me: I'm actually IN South Africa listening to Paul Simon's Graceland album. I smiled. I feel so blessed.
(By the way, that friend who introduced me to this album? He is my amazing husband of 14 years).

I absolutely ADORE this album. I recently got a copy of it on vinyl, and it is often blasted throughout our house. "Homeless" is such an amazing track...
