What are you listening to ?

A sky full of stars by coldplay.

'Cause you're a sky, 'cause you're a sky full of stars
I'm gonna give you my heart
'Cause you're a sky, 'cause you're a sky full of stars
'Cause you light up the path

I don't care, go on and tear me apart
I don't care if you do, ooh
'Cause in a sky, 'cause in a sky full of stars
I think I saw you
 
What a lovely song to hear, on a day that looks like Spring!
The Forsythia is peeking out, hopefully.
Hope the freeze will not kill the blossoms.


Living In The Past"

Happy and I'm smiling,
walk a mile to drink your water.
You know I'd love to love you,
and above you there's no other.
We'll go walking out
while others shout of war's disaster.
Oh, we won't give in,
let's go living in the past.

Once I used to join in
every boy and girl was my friend.
Now there's revolution, but they don't know
what they're fighting.
Let us close out eyes;
outside their lives go on much faster.
Oh, we won't give in,
we'll keep living in the past.

Ish, how can you be such a crusty, ornery curmudgeon,and still post something so sweet and sentimental as Boots of Spanish Leather?

Ah, well. Live long enough, and rough barnacles and thorny growths will settle, if they are not scraped off with certain regularity.

I am of '54 vintage. The lees have never had the chance to settle, until now.
 
fuck

They are playing "A Day in The Life"

and it is making me cry. (WTF, hormones ?)

What whiplash, it is, to go from dirty, low down David Lee Roth and Van Halen, to the Beatles.

(Good Gracious, grandmother! Tame your hips! It is unseemly to have them churn as if they were an off balance clothes washer.)
 
Today's the Day

Better pack your bags and run
Or stay until the job is done
Or maybe you could sit and hope
That providence will fray the rope

And sink like a stone
Or go it alone

And isn't it enough
For you
Isn't it enough

Baby, you made all the big mistakes
But duty and love isn't what it takes
You are the tender of what you know
Better murder the dream and go

If you're you all you've got
Then I'll tell you what

Maybe that's enough
For you
Maybe it's enough

Maybe it's enough
For you
Maybe it's enough

- Aimee Mann

Listened to Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings earlier. I got the vinyl from my brother as a birthday present.
 
Last night, Eddie Vedder showed Dave that he has grown comfortable with his role, at last.

On youtube-

Eddie Vedder: "Better Man" - David Letterman

Late Show with David Letterman

On youtube-

Tom Waits: "Take One Last Look" - David Letterman

TW seems to have cleaned up his act, a bit. Man has a heart, that glows.

Late Show with David Letterman

Let's watch the sun come up in another town
Try our luck a little further down
Leave the cards on the table
Leave the bread on the plate
Put your hand on the gearshift
Put your foot off the brake

And take one last look
At the place that you are leaving
Take one last look
Oh take one last look
At the place that you are leaving
Take one last look

I beg for something that the wind can carry
There are all points of ways across the waiting prairie
This car looks like it could give us a good run
A choice to leave was a good one

And take one last look
At the place that you are leaving
Take one last look
Oh take one last look
At the place that you are leaving
Take one last look

Let’s look forward to the lights that are new,
The world is a ribbon of road for you
All towns have churches and tire stops
They put up speed limit signs and they hire cops
I love to see the wind in your hair
All we ever need we can get anywhere

And take one last look
At the place that you are leaving
Take one last look
Oh take one last look
At the place that you are leaving
Take one last look
Oh take one last look
Oh take one last look
 
I just listened to about a third of a song by a rapper kid who wants to come into the studio becaus he's blowing up on Soundcloud. Its terrible. I was glad when I opened this thread and saw Tweeter and the Monkey Man and clicked that to clear the other song from my mind.

Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' you
I'm still alright to smile
Girl, I think about you every day now
Was a time when I wasn't sure
But you set my mind at ease
There is no doubt
You're in my heart now

Said, woman, take it slow
It'll work itself out fine
All we need is just a little patience
Said, sugar, make it slow
And we come together fine
All we need is just a little patience
(patience)
Mm, yeah

I sit here on the stairs
'Cause I'd rather be alone
If I can't have you right now
I'll wait, dear
Sometimes I get so tense
But I can't speed up the time
But you know, love
There's one more thing to consider

Said, woman, take it slow
And things will be just fine
You and I'll just use a little patience
Said, sugar, take the time
'Cause the lights are shining bright
You and I've got what it takes
To make it, We won't fake it,
I'll never break it
'cause I can't take it

[whistle]
...little patience, mm yeah, mm yeah
need a little patience, yeah
just a little patience, yeah
some more patience, yeah
need some patience, yeah
could use some patience, yeah
gotta have some patience, yeah
all it takes is patience,
just a little patience
is all you need *

I BEEN WALKIN' THE STREETS AT NIGHT
JUST TRYIN' TO GET IT RIGHT
HARD TO SEE WITH SO MANY AROUND
YOU KNOW I DON'T LIKE
BEING STUCK IN THE CROWD
AND THE STREETS DON'T CHANGE
BUT BABY THE NAME
I AIN'T GOT TIME FOR THE GAME
'CAUSE I NEED YOU
YEAH, YEAH, BUT I NEED YOU
OO, I NEED YOU
WHOA, I NEED YOU
OO, ALL THIS TIME **
(ah)
