Starting over with everything..

I lived and worked in Japan for a long time and have come back in a time of economic and ever present family drama to try and gain a foothold in my so-called home country. Armed with nothing but dog fur, a crappy car, a laptop that hates me, I try to see how far I can get.

What's in a name?

Apparently a lot of friggin' songs. In addition with several thousands.. of people with my name, there were a lot songs with the word Sarah (Sara) in it. When I was a kid, I remember "Sara" by Starship was really popular and I HATED that song. My brothers would tease me if it came on the radio in the car and sing at the top of their voices. Good lordy. In searching You Tube, I found some Sarah songs, some which I actually liked.



Sarah by Eskimo Joe- Even though he calls her by name apparently she hasn't told him her name, it has a catchy tune though.



Sara by Starship- Still as cheesy as ever and still makes me want to vomit a little.



Sara by Bob Dylan, covered by someone else- I actually like this song.



Sara by Fleetwood Mac- It's nice to know that most of the songs titled Sara or Sarah come from some tramatic instance in someone's life and are usually kinda depressing.



Sarah by Thin Lizzy- A sweet song from a father to his daughter.



Sara Smile by Hall and Oats, covered by some guys- A nice rendition of this song which I also like.



Sara by BoA- A Korean singer who is apparently really in love with her cat, Sara. Though the intro is long, it's worth it to listen for a bit just to hear all about her cat.

If you are sitting there, going wow, these songs are great. I wonder if there are more Sarah songs, there are!! Go to this link and search for more songs. Or you can even search for your own. Hope you have as much fun as I did.

    You think you have it bad? There's only one famous song with my name in it and I will never escape it.
