Cheryl Wheeler

I have included Cheryl Wheeler videos in a couple past posts—Sun, Moon and Fall. She is one of my favorite songwriters, so here is an entire post of her songs. She can write songs that are serious, and songs that are a lot of fun.

"Piper"



"Pop Tart and Spam"



"Lady Gaga's Singing Program"

Sun

Since I did moon songs on Monday, I decided to post sun songs today. I considered trying to have three sun songs and three moon songs each by the same three artists. I think I could have done it, but decided that I would have to stretch too much as far as the songs I included. So I decided not to do that.

But the first sun song is by that same artist that had the first moon song. Here is Cheryl Wheeler with her song "Pointing at the Sun".



Sun song #2: Ben Harper with "She's Only Happy in the Sun".



Sun song #3: Bill Withers performong his song "Ain't No Sunshine When She's Gone".

Moon

Since November 2 is the full moon, I am posting a couple moon songs.

First, Cheryl Wheeler performing her song "Howl at the Moon".



Patty Griffin performing her moon song, "Moon Song".



My first choice for the last moon song would be Van Morrison's "Moondance", but all of his videos have embedding blocked. So another song just as good, Bill Monroe performing his song "Blue Moon of Kentucky".

Fall

A chill is in the air and the leaves are starting to turn, so I have decided to post a couple fall songs.

First, Cheryl Wheeler performing her song "When Fall Comes to New England".



Eva Cassidy performing "Autumn Leaves". The words for this song were written by Jacques Prévert, who also wrote the script for my favorite movie, The Children of Paradise.




Finally—because I have not posted any classical music yet—here it a video with "Autumn" from Vivaldi's "Four Seasons".
