No it was a piece she made up.  It was really nice.  But I couldn't tell her because I was emotional and I feared I would cry in front of the others.  But next week I will let her know.

I am really digging SBTRKT at the moment. Especially the song 'Hold On' that features Sampha.

What are others into at the moment?

Hi mrkotter,

2 songs I love:

Fleetwood Mac 'Songbird'

The Corrs 'Everybody Hurts'

Some lyrics from Jay Z that I've always loved. I've always put them in the context of mental illness and the idea of self rather than money:

No matter where you go, you are what you are player
And you can try to change but that's just the top layer
Man, you was who you was 'fore you got here
Only God can judge me, so I'm gone
Either love me, or leave me alone

What's really cool here is that you can read the God line literally or because Jay Z refers himself as Jehovah earlier in the song the line can also mean that only you can judge yourself and not others. I tend to read it both ways.

Pretty cool, huh?

I've looked at life from both sides now, some win and loose and still somehow, its loves elusions I recall. I really don't know clouds at all ....
Beautiful song

Hey @Former-Member. Sorry mate. Just read your 4.13pm post......thankyou! Bad that your day was not that good & good that you handled mental health folks OK. Very much wishing you a better day tomorrow............thanks heaps for song info. Listened to Gang of youths song.....really liked it! Shall order 'the positions' tomorrow.. Will listen to 'idiotic oracle' & 'road' too in time. Is 'strange diseases' g o y too? (No need to respond....will check it out).

Hey @comet. I have a spare computer lying around I'd give to you in a heartbeat. Pity it's impossible to do (different states doesn't help either) Mind you my computer 6yrs old hasn't survived the move, it died yesterday. Looks like I'll have to rebuild it. I built it for Christmas for the kids 6 years so it did really well considering. I'm really glad you like the music. It's always a bit scary to put music tastes out into the open. I pretty much use Spotify to find new music. I'm thinking you are ok today. I hope so after your rough patch. Sending hugs as always (and is now mandatory) 😊💜
