Good morning, WA2K folks
edgar, that's what made that song such fun. Not one of those guys had the same style.
Brit, I was taken by James Yorkston's dialogue. It was a wee bit difficult to understand so I found the words. I've never heard a Scot be so quiet.
I Watch the park quieten from the hotel window, I hear you softly sleep amongst the cars and saluting songbirds,
For a city whose size had scared me for years right now it's a feeble evening row, not un-similar to a beach evening ending
On the table to my left there's a magazine with a picture of dead money, making a mockery of what I'd call art
But what would I know about the scene in the city that has swallowed up friends lovers and family,
Just give a village the size of a teacup
You're happier here spread out with your eyes closed,
I feel I should order a drink in celebration to welcome the summer, whose first day is ending
Should you wake you'd catch me of course and ask me the wisdom of drinking once more
I cast me mind back to yesterdays wedding where we got drunk and fell over
I did my best to be polite to a family I'd never met, but on numerous occasions, I guess, I could have tried harder
Of course by the end of the night I was a best friend with everyone and every ones wife but right now I couldn't remember their names no matter how hard I try.
Awesome!
The Acorn's "Crooked Legs" was surpassed only by that fantastic video. I listened and watched twice. Thanks for the fireflies.
Today is Jack Nicholson's birthday, y'all, and this song by him surprised me.
He doesn't quite get the melody right on the second part, but I love it!
