Today’s Magickal Music

Happy Friday!!!  :-)  I hope you are planning a wonderful weekend! 

Our first magickal music musing was about Heart's "Magic Man."  Thanks to those of you who posted some replies and thoughts about who/what the sound reminded you of magickally!  Everyone's ideas were right on! There is, of course, no right or wrong answer – the right answer is the one that is right for you.

For me personally that song always reminds me of Papa Legba because  to me he IS the magic man… for without him, no magic gets done!  I also like the little implication of the trickster, but in a good way – like he mesmerizes you and you love it!  ;-)  However, certainly the thoughts of other male lwa easily come to mind – Ogoun, the Baron (also with his slick, sexy ways), etc.  So good answers one and all!

Today's song for discussion is "Magic Carpet Ride" by Steppenwolf!  I had a lot of fun putting my thoughts together on this one regarding what and whom this song brought to mind for me!  I will share them after I hear from all of you!  Can't wait to hear what lwa, product, or spell this brings to your mind! 🙂

Lyrics:

I like to dream yes, yes, right between my sound machine
On a cloud of sound I drift in the night
Any place it goes is right
Goes far, flies near, to the stars away from here

Well, you don't know what we can find
Why don't you come with me little girl
On a magic carpet ride
You don't know what we can see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me
Fantasy will set you free
Close your eyes girl, look inside girl
Let the sound take you away

Last night I held Aladdin's lamp
And so I wished that I could stay
Before the thing could answer me
Someone came and took the lamp away
I looked around, a lousy candle's all I found

Well, you don't know what we can find
Why don't you come with me little girl
On a magic carpet ride
Well, you don't know what we can see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me
Fantasy will set you free
Close your eyes girl, look inside girl
Let the sound take you away

Don't know what we can find
Why don't you come with me little girl
On a magic carpet ride
You don't know what we can see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me
Fantasy will set you free
Close your eyes girl, look inside girl
Let the sound take you away

Love, light, and peace,
Mambo Samantha Corfield
