					<description><![CDATA[Song: Constant Craving Songwriters: k.d. lang/Ben Mink Was it really 1992 when Constant Craving by k.d. Lang was released? That&#8217;s more than 30 years ago! And that&#8217;s also a sign that you really love a song when it sticks with you (or, in this case, me) for so long. For many years brain researchers have [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Song: Under The Sea Songwriter: Samuel E. Wright (Originally published October 13, 2014) Sometime in late December last year my family and I went to see the movie &#8220;Saving Mr. Banks&#8221; which was basically the true story of how the movie Mary Poppins came to be. &#160;The most memorable scenes for me were when the [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Song: I Saw The Light Artist: Todd Rundgren (Originally published July 19, 2014) 1972 was a memorable year for me, but not in a good way. &#160;In May of that year, my mother died. &#160;I was 14 and devastated, but one of the ways that I found to express my grief was by writing songs.

					<description><![CDATA[Song: Soul Meets Body Artist: Death Cab For Cutie (Originally published May 3, 2014) I have no idea what this song is about, and so if you think this is just going to be another gush about another song &#8212; it isn&#8217;t. I really don&#8217;t like it when songwriters just meander on in their own [&#8230;]]]></description>
