Thanks for the well-wishes Bill.
Luckily, Richmond VA came thru relatively unscathed.
Thoughts and prayers to everyone else in Sandy's path!!

It's great. Winter or Summer. Of course since I wrote this the province of Quebec voted in a provincial government that has separation as one of its party platforms. Not something that they are pushing on current agenda but c'est vraiment fou. |

And, to pull this subject back onto the music - I love this song because of the haunting vocals. This, like Fever Ray, haunts my dreams. I don't sleep very much, and even when I can sleep, it's not for very long. I'm told that a fragmented sleep is detrimental to good health. Feh. I'm healthy. Just not very articulate when it comes to posting things here...

oddly enough, every time I hear the chorus, I hear "everything is moving so fast, I am a lunatic". It makes me giggle.

Just not very articulate when it comes to posting things here... I don't know about that, Cynaera. I thought you just told us yet another stellar, little anecdote about a time in your life, spurred somehow by the music you've heard and we all are sharing here (RP). I'm a Torontonian myself, at least since '75, and I love to visit Montreal. So, it does my heart some good to hear your kind words re: my fellow Canadians, and that you found solace here when needed. All good stuff. We can never have too much of that! There are, after all, bastards lurking everywhere, most often, only if we give them reason to be. And as for this song...never heard it before. Love it! The harmonies grabbed me. Go figure, I have to listen to an American internet radio station to discover a song by a group from my own back yard (so to speak). Gimme more, Bill! john, who occasionally comes out of the corner |

I guess you've never met Doug Henning - an insidious psychopath.  Good tune, by the way. |

This along with Sun Kill Moon that was just played is one of those groups that is perfectly fine in small doses, but to listen to more than 2 or 3 songs like this is DEPRESSING!  |
