# 3 I'm thankful for good MUSIC!

I love music, all kinds of music! I listen to music all the time and love finding songs that just make you rock your heart out. It's really hard for me to not sing when I'm listening to music on my ipod working out. Sometimes I just have to lip sync while running at the gym, but I don't care!
One song I heard playing on a commercial the other day just had me singing and didn't want it to end. I was reading and taking notes so I had to jot down the words so I wouldn't forget to blog about it.  Here is the info:
Merrilee Rush (January 26, 1944 in Seattle, Washington) is an American singer, best known for her recording of the song "Angel of the Morning", a Top 10 song which earned her a Grammy nomination for Female Vocalist Of The Year in 1968.

The song "Angel of the Morning" was written and composed by the songwriter Chip Taylor (né James Wesley Voight, the younger brother of the actor Jon Voight and the uncle of the actress Angelina Jolie). Taylor had also written and composed "Wild Thing," a hit for The Troggs in 1966, and "I Can't Let Go," a hit for The Hollies in the United Kingdom. Rush's recording of "Angel of the Morning" was featured prominently in the movie, Girl, Interrupted, for which Jolie won an Academy Award. "Angel of the Morning" has also been featured in the major motion pictures Jerry Maguire and Fingers starring Harvey Keitel.
