The Redding Song

Over on Redding.com, blogger Marc Beauchamp posed a challenge -- 

".....a contest to come up with a telling or funny acronym that spells R-E-D-D-I-N-G."

I call it a Dream Assignment for a songwriter who loves Redding:

The Redding Song 

music and lyrics by Erin Friedman

R is for the river and the trails that run beside her

E is for the eagles raising hope and flying higher

D is for downtown dining:

         Art and music, beer and wine-ing

         Another

 D is for diversions

         Recreational excursions

         Golfing, skiing, fishing, hiking

         Gardening, boating, swimming, cycling

         Fly kites, tie flies,

         Sun shines

         Most days of the year

         Anything you like to do outside                          

         (That’s legal)

         You can do it here

I is for infernal heat that keeps the wimps away

N is for night lights on the Bridge at Turtle Bay

G is for the Gem of Northern California

Angry? Bitter? This Valentine's 4 U

If you're looking for a sweet, sentimental love song to celebrate this day of romance,  keep looking.  But if you like your Valentine's Day tunes with a dose heartbreak and twist of revenge, then go ahead and help yourself to "Heart Shaped Stones."

I wrote this song many years ago - and it's still one of my favorites to sing. Our kids think it's kind of creepy and that's part of what I like about it.

So whether you're happily single, looking for love, or celebrating the day with your One and Only, please hop on over to our website for a free download of "Heart Shaped Stones."

Hope you get chocolate and champagne and NOT stones. Unless, of course, they're diamonds.
