How can a voice be so lilting and sultry at the same time? Amazing.

A song that acknowledges the crazy lunacy of having been in love but draws you in to the bittersweet acceptance of the loss. This is my go to when the losses rise to the surface in my heart.

"Though I dream in vain, in my heart it will remain. My stardust melody, the memory of love's refrain"

Classic Hoagy Carmichael writing.

Another of my go to when the mood strikes (even after many years it will) is Diana Ross' Good Morning Heartache . Such a sweet, sullen acceptance of the grief caused by lost love.
