Phyllis Dillon. One Life to Live.
My buddy Sky mentioned this song by Phyllis Dillon in response to a post on my other blog. The jam's really stuck with me--even though I suppose it's a love song--it's the I only have one life to live and I'm gonna live it that keeps resonating now and playing like a theme song through my head. According to Wiki, Jamaican-born Dillon did all of her recording before turning 23. She spent the years following focusing on her family, only to return to performing in the early nineties when she was 43. She passed at 56 with an awesome sweep of soul-full reggae songs to her credit and several classic covers.
