One day last week I made my usual before-work stop at Starbucks and one of my favorite arresting songs came on &#8211; LIke a Star.&nbsp; This song, like Rain by Jesse Cook and Straight Into the Sunrise by Gato Barbieri, stopped me cold when I first heard it.&nbsp; I was totally fascinated by the sound and ran out to purchase the entire CD based on the one song.&nbsp; This was pre-iPod ownership.&nbsp; However, I&#8217;m glad that I did purchase the entire CD because I love every song on it.&nbsp;<br \/>\n<P align=justify><FONT style=\"FONT-SIZE: 14px\" face=arial><FONT style=\"FONT-SIZE: 85%\"><\/FONT><FONT style=\"FONT-SIZE: 85%\"><\/FONT><FONT style=\"FONT-SIZE: 85%\"><\/FONT>Because Starbucks was pretty empty, I just went with it and began to sing the song &#8211;

A few moments later, I realized it was time for me to pack up and go.&nbsp; As I was leaving, I turned around to unplug my phone or something along those lines and realized there was someone sitting behind me that I didn&#8217;t factor into my decision to sing the song aloud.&nbsp;
