You know how I always warn “our chats will be very conversational, not entirely sensible and with any luck totally enjoyable.”
Well, enjoyable may not go far enough for today’s guest. All I know is the hour sure flew by when Juno award-winning singer/songwriter Meaghan Smith dropped by the station. The Ontario born, Nova Scotia-based artist is in the midst of a wonderful new project – called OUR SONG.
We talked about that and so much more like all the lovely twists and turns her career path has taken – we talked about juggling life and whether or not there are ghosts, we played “INsights IN 10” and of course we played some of her incredible music too. Here is my conversation with Meaghan Smith!

Randy Newman’s “You’ve Got a Friend In Me” from TOY STORY was nominated for both an Academy Award and a Golden Globe but it was “Colors of the Wind” from POCAHONTAS that took home the awards for Best Original Song in both cases. You can check out the video for that great song here
The version of PRIDE AND PREJUDICE that Meaghan loves with Colin Firth as Mr.Darcy was actually a 6 part mini-series back in 1995. The lead actress in the role of Elizabeth Bennet was Jennifer Ehle – and it turns out she’s not British at all just really great at the accent. Ms.Ehle hails from Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
