Ginny Owens – Without Condition
I woke up with this phrase stuck in my head
And I
don’t wanna be a flame,
I wanna be a raging fire
It is a line from the song by Ginny Owens, I Wanna Be Moved (2nd track on the Without Condition album).
I am currently infatuated with Ginny Owens, after a friend loaned me a couple of her albums last Sunday.
I am definitely putting these on my birthday wish list. She reminds me most of Dar Williams, but if that name doesn’t ring a bell, I guess she has a style that reminds me of Sarah McLachlin and maybe a less angry version of Alanis Morissette. I’ve seen her compared to Tori Amos, but I don’t know Tori Amos’s work well enough to comment on that.
I also keep listening to track 7 – I Am Nothing – which has the following line:
If I do not love, I am nothing
And track 8 – Springs of Life
Rain down Your love upon me
Pour out Your mercy on me
Please won’t You take me to Your springs of life
