My 3 Songs 01/15/09
Madeline from Bloomington picked her set in memory of her cousin, Chelsea.

"Pretty Voice" from Cloud Cult - "When I hear the words and feel the mood of the song I long to remember the details of what she was like and honor her memory."

Yelle's "A Cause Des Garcons" - "Chelsea's personality was larger than life that I deeply admired, yet she was wise beyond her years which I never could fully understand (like the french in the song)."

"Stay Positive" from The Hold Steady - "It's been 8 years since Chelsea's death. She taught me that optimism is a powerful force. 'Stay Positive' reminds me of the brighter end of grief that is about healing and honoring her memory."
