"All I can say is that there's a sweetness here, a Southern sweetness, that makes sweet music. . . . If I had to tell somebody who had never been to the South, who had never heard of soul music, what it was, I'd just have to tell him that it's music from the heart, from the pulse, from the innermost feeling. That's my soul; that's how I sing. And that's the South."

-- Al Green


I need a beach and some sunshine on a Carolina shore. I need some classic party songs with my friends and to not be wearing three layers of clothes and still be freezing inside. For all of you lucky enough to be in the Carolinas, I envy you, I really do.
