I think Anne Murray has to be my favorite female vocalist. A lot of her songs and her style of singing reminds me a lot of John Denver's. 'Course it could be just me. But anyways, I thought I'd share this song I happened to be listening to today.
Lyrics: "I rolled out this mornin' the kids had the mornin' news show on Bryant Gumbel was talkin' 'bout the fighting in Lebanon Some senator was squawkin' 'bout the bad economy It's gonna get worse you see, we need a change in policy
There's a local paper rolled up in a rubber band One more sad story's one more than I can stand Just once how I'd like to see the headline say "Not much to print today, can't find nothin' bad to say", because
Nobody robbed a liquor store on the lower part of town Nobody OD'ed, nobody burned a single buildin' down Nobody fired a shot in anger, nobody had to die in vain We sure could use a little good news today
I'll come home this evenin', I'll bet that the news will be the same Somebody takes a hostage, somebody steals a plane How I wanna hear the anchor man talk about a county fair And how we cleaned up the air, how everybody learned to care Whoa, tell me
Nobody was assassinated in the whole Third World today And in the streets of Ireland, all the children had to do was play And everybody loves everybody in the good old USA We sure could use a little good news today
Nobody robbed a liquor store on the lower part of town Nobody OD'ed, nobody burned a single buildin' down Nobody fired a shot in anger, nobody had to die in vain We sure could use a little good news today"

I've always put her in the same group with John Denver as well. My parents had lots of her albums when I was growing up.

Yup - she's known as Canada's Songbird and she grew up about a 2 hours drive from where I am. If you enjoy Denver, Murray .... you might as well add Gordon Lightfoot to the mix. In fact he wrote the song 'Cotton Jenny' - a song they both perform very well. Here & Here .... another Lightfoot classic - Rainy Day People
The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in a man's determination.
Whether you think you can or you can't .... you're probably right!
