        Alicia Keys-"Unthinkable". Beautiful song
        I confess that altruistic and cynically selfish talk seem to me about equally unreal. With all humility, I think 'whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might,' infinitely more important than the vain attempt to love one's neighbour as one's self. If you want to hit a bird on the wing you must have all your will in focus, you must not be thinking about yourself, and equally, you must not be thinking about your neighbour; you must be living with your eye on that bird. Every achievement is a bird on the wing.
        Oliver Wendell Holmes

          I am speechless too! What a terrific song. There are so many levels to it and the imagery really works well.

          Thanks so much.

              It's 1973ish and I am huddled in the corner of the cloakroom with five or six friends around a crappy transistor radio listening to this track and singing along. A door crashes open and Mrs I've-forgotten-her-name-but-she-was-head-of-girls hurls herself out of her office (next to the girls' cloakroom so she could spy on us) and hysterically screams about us all being social deviants who are destined only to work propping up the counter in Chelsea Girl.

              It's still a brilliant track - Mrs-what's-her-name is long dead and Chelsea Girl is but a fond but distant memory.

                  well at least you could listen to nice things with your schoolmates together... for me sharing music with my schoolmates was impossible untill I reached university.

                    Hi Limehouse

                    All The Young Dudes was 1972.

                    Who was the woman saying "I've got my invite" on Roll Away The Stone?

                      This one has me dancing and smiling right now. Music always cheers me up when I am feeling low.

                        Video Games was a very strange song, but good.

                        This one was only a B side but good enough to be a Beatles song :

                            Listening to Paganinis Caprice No 24. Great piece of music. Very moody. I recommend even people who arent into most classical music (like me most of the time ) to check htis on eout. It really ist incredible

                              When it's played well like this, yes. But you can imagine what Watson went through if Holmes was attempting to master something this difficult.

                                The silence of an Italian non tourist town in August...
                                Nedded the respite after imagining Holmens on the Paganini Caprice!
                                Paganini non ripete!
