Who Do I Think I Am??

This one's about tender.

THE PROMPTS: "Find something from history that happened on March 25th to research and give us your thoughts." (30DBC) "We all have our low points in life. How do you get through times like these? How do you 'get up' and continue on?" (BCF)

What's up folks? Just a quick fly-by to say hey....haven't been around in a few days and I'll be hoping to change that soon. Was going to do a little research for events that happened on this day (one of the prompts given) and I was distracted by the knowledge that one of my favorite Radiohead websites had, well, not "stopped", but ceased updating a little while ago. And another, http://www.ateaseweb.com/, has undergone a revamping of sorts. One of their old features was "This day in Radiohead history...", which was going to be my cheat-sheet for today...alas, it is no longer part of the site.

But then I came across this link...a great Blur song, and a pairing that wouldn't have happened ten or twenty years ago. Blur's leader Damon Albarn reuinted with guitarist Graham Coxon, along with former arch-enemy from Oasis, Noel Gallagher, and British legend Paul Weller. Takes a real music nerd like me to appreciate what all six minutes of this video means.

So in lieu of an actual blog entry today, this is what you get.

"Tender is the night
Lying by your side
Tender is the touch
Of someone that you love too much
Tender is the day
The demons go away
Lord I need to find
Someone who can heal my mind

Come on, Come on, Come on
Get through it
Come on, Come on, Come on
Love's the greatest thing
Come on, Come on, Come on
Get through it
Come on, Come on, Come on
Love's the greatest thing
That we have
I'm waiting for that feeling
I'm Waiting for that feeling
Waiting for that feeling to come

Oh my baby
Oh my baby
Oh why
Oh my

Tender is the ghost
The ghost I love the most
Hiding from the sun
Waiting for the night to come
Tender is my heart
I'm screwing up my life
Lord I need to find
Someone who can heal my mind

Come on, Come on, Come on
Get through it
Come on, Come on, Come on
Love's the greatest thing
Come on, Come on, Come on
Get through it
Come on, Come on, Come on
Love's the greatest thing
That we have
I'm waiting for that feeling
I'm Waiting for that feeling
Waiting for that feeling to come

Oh my baby
Oh my baby
Oh why
Oh my"

On second thought, maybe I needed to hear this song. Maybe it does make a little sense. Enjoy a bit of a serious entry today, my friends. Maybe I'll be in a little better place tomorrow. Peace, and GOODNIGHT NOW!!
