"My 3 Songs" for Friday

Posted at 1:30 PM on February 1, 2008 by Steve Seel

Today we have quite a story, my only friends. Christopher Kelly of Stillwater writes:

"I moved back to the Twin Cities this past spring, and The Current quickly became part of my life. I first heard "Two" while driving alone and it immediately made me think of my then fiance. It was the song my now wife and I had our first dance to at our wedding. Four our honeymoon, our first stop was Amsterdam. One of my fondest memories while there was sitting in Rembrandt Square with my wife while a young Dutch singer and guitar player sang "Austrailia" (!?!!! - ss), another song first heard on The Current. Our next and longest stop was a small lakeside town in the mountains of Austria. Shortly after arriving there, we saw the video for "1-2-3-4" (first heard on The Current). I immediately feel the warmth of the sun and the glow of the lake and mountains of that day every time I hear it. Thank you for being a part of my life musically and spiritually."
