You can't think your way out of an avalanche. You can only feel.
I woke up this morning with "I Just Can't Help Believin'" playing in my head. It sounded sweet and honest and laced with caffeine. The snow outside was uncommonly deep and soft. By mid afternoon it was grey and lumpen and tubercular. Funny what comes to mind, and how one's appreciation of it changes as day turns to night. It was all good while it lasted, Elvis. Blink and it's gone.
Written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, and originally recorded by Mann in 1968.

I think i will invest in this DVD, i haven't seen that film for a long time, class act. Some very odd characters, or "fans" as i recall.
I haven't seen the film for some time either, but it was a certainly a great performance; all that was missing was a genuine UFO to beam him up as the lights dimmed on the final note and fade of the snare and hi-hat.
