Peter Mayer and Singing
Editor’s Note: Lots of videos in this one.
Monkey just informed me I needed to write a post about Peter Mayer and how much we all love to sing along to his songs. She says not enough people know about him and more should.
Our family has known of him for nearly a decade now from back in our UUCF days. He sang in the service on Sunday morning then Monkey and I attended a concert of his that night in the sanctuary. We loved, loved, loved him. Then, after we moved to Nash, he presented a concert down here at the other UU church and our whole family went.
Blue Boat Home is the one song our entire family knows all the words to and we will sing it with abandon. One of my favorite Italy memories; we were walking into the Piazza dell’Anfiteatro singing our little hearts out.

(We aren’t professionals, but we are certainly sincere.)
In addition to his heartfelt UU-hymn type songs, Peter has many hilarious songs. Among the favorites for us:
Buds gave that one to all his co-workers at Juice.
One of our favorite days: Jama Day:
The ear worm song:
And finally, a haunting reminder that Everything Is Holy Now:
Happy Singing.
