What beautiful songs. Thanks for keeping the good stuff coming. I don't know how you manage to program such an disparate mix of tunes across genres and musical eras so incredibly well and so consistently.

yes, but how many shades of grey? 50, perhaps? ;)

I'm not familiar with this one — like it! Opening notes made me think of the "Drive" soundtrack (which is soooooo completely 80's inspired). |

Big Cure fan here. Maybe my favourite band ever. Seen them perform this song live a couple of times. 9. |

some things just strike me as resonant. I don't know why, and that's what I like about it...

Don't care what color your cat is or isn't. Love the Cure though.

I still don't get it, I guess. I have a cat that glows in the dark (well, if you rub his fur the wrong way...) Still, I like this song, so I'll just switch to glide now... |

I have GOT to stop over-analyzing songs. Well, actually, the saying goes: "All cats are grey in the dark" referencing the hesitance of one having a random shag with another of the opposite sex that isn't "that great looking"...once the lights are out.... |

Whoever added this song deserves a glass of red wine... served by a pale crying wench in a stained wedding dress. Gothtacular!
Such a great tune.

Check out the lyrics - death - that's always been my thinking. hypnotique... the piano at the end = very cool... I never thought that I would find myself In bed amongst the stones The columns are all men Begging to crush me No shapes sail on the dark deep lakes And no flags wave me home In the caves
All cats are grey
In the caves
The textures coat my skin
In the death cell
A single note
Rings on and on and on |

I like the Cure, but have never heard this one and feel that I was a better person for that.   |

My family does have a grey cat! So I have to give this song a high rating because of its truthiness.  |
