Song of the Day, June 19: Inside Your Painting by Patty Larkin

Today’s song is Inside Your Painting by Patty Larkin. This utterly enchanting song expresses the joy the singer experiences viewing (or even thinking about) the art created by her partner. Larkin has mentioned that her partner, Bette Warner, a former dancer and now Larkin’s business manager, dabbles in paint, making the connection even stronger. A celebration of color and paint that merges beautifully with the joy and skill of the music, it’s art celebrating art and a delightful love song all rolled into one.

I’ll take your days
I’ll take your dark days

And inside your painting
Is a blue trapeze
Inside your painting
You’re playing harmonica
I’m reading erotica

Today is Patty Larkin’s 61st birthday. Enjoy this rousing live version of her song and wish her many happy returns.
