Music, words, places, people. Pedantic and cronish with goth tendencies. Tries to be kind.

Good morning all. Monday. I'll say that again. Monday. And it's raining, and it's childcare day. *sighs*

If a cover version is good, like this one with its strange echos, it can give a new perspective on a song you've always loved.

Once we reach our dotage, we should SO do it, but can I pass on the knitting and have double cocktails please? 🖤
This is how I'm going to look every time someone dislikes one of my posts.
I miss #Halloween. Now we only have Christmas to look forward to: far too much work, far too much 'gifting' (not even a real verb), not enough black by a country mile.
Oops, I just bought another tkt, Chapterhouse in Islington next April. #planahead. 🙂

One of the best slow videos ever. You're going to need about 10 minutes, but somehow, it's worth it.

Music can help clarify your thoughts, and this does just that for me.

'Do you know, do you know
Every stone that you throw
Will ricochet back around to where you stand.'

'You see things can change
Yes, and walls can come tumblin' down
Governments crack and systems fail
'Cause unity is powerful'

That's good. I saw them at a festival where the crowd is less specific band focussed, so, yup.
Glad they were good, but I saw them just over a year ago and was v disappointed, they seemed dull, disengaged with the music and audience. But hopefully have now changed.
Another Saturday, another afternoon disco. Halloween this time, 80s and 90s. See you on the other side, people.
No, I did the list this morning and I'm sticking to it. (Those words are going to come back to haunt me, aren't they)
Prob not, all ok in the end and just 3hrs, yours sounds like an age. Hope you are home, or on the way now.
I feel your pain. Much less dreadful, I know, but Weds I, older woman,
alone, got stuck at Finsbury Park Station (not a nice place, cold, dirty, unsafe feeling) at 11pm, cancelled trains. Got home 2am.
Enjoying this very much, love the Siren track.
Well I care about you. And yes, I know a bit about feeling that way. Sending you some hugs. X

A sadly underrated musician. How I love his songs, and he is the nicest, kindest person.
