        I get up in the evening
        and I ain't got nothing to say
        I come home in the morning
        I go to bed feeling the same way
        I ain't nothing but tired
        Man I'm just tired and bored with myself
        Hey there baby, I could use just a little help

        You can't starta fire
        You can't start a fire without a spark
        This gun's for hire
        even if we're just dancing in the dark

                  34 years ago the album Thriller was released. My favourite song from this album is “Human Nature.”

                  Michael Jackson: Human Nature:-30 November 1982: Album Thriller: Lyrics and Video



                  Looking out
                  Across the night-time
                  The city winks a sleepless eye
                  Hear her voice
                  Shake my window
                  Sweet seducing sighs
                  Get me out
                  Into the night-time
                  Four walls won't hold me tonight
                  If this town
                  Is just an apple
                  Then let me take a bite
                  If they say,
                  Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
                  Why, why, does he do it that way
                  If they say,
                  Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
                  Why, why does he do me that way
                  Reaching out
                  To touch a stranger
                  Electric eyes are everywhere
                  See that girl
                  She knows I'm watching
                  She likes the way I stare
                  If they say,
                  Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
                  Why, why, does he do me that way
                  If they say,
                  Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
                  Why, why does he do me that way
                  I like livin' this way
                  I like lovin' this way

                    Morningside, the old man died and no one cried.They simply turned away...
                    And when he died, he left a table made of nails and pride...
                    And with his hands he carved these words inside... "For my children"

                    Morning light, Morning bright, I spent the night with dreams that make you weep...
                    Morning time, wash away the sadness from these eyes of mine...
                    For I recall the words the old man signed... "For my children"

                    And the legs were shaped with his hands
                    And the top made of the most beautiful oaken wood
                    And all the children that gathered around this table, they touched it with their laughter
                    and ahhh that was good

                    Morningside, an old man died and no one cried. He surely died alone...
                    Truth is sad, for not a child would claim the gift he had...
                    The words he carved became his epitaph... "For my children"
                    Home... going home... take me home... HOME.

                      Watch Orianthi rip the guitar. This girl surely practiced her scales.

                        This song is all about the feeling I get when I hear it. I still get a knot in my stomach today same as the first time I stumbled across it nearly 20 years ago. There's something about it and I can't explain, maybe the haunting base, sounds that conjure up images of long corridors or Elizabeth Fraser's somewhat mournful vocals.

                        The video is of an unborn fetus which I'd guess was a theme motivated by the heartbeat drum sound in the music which I could never decide if it infers life or death.

                        Massive Attack were a band that regularly used guest vocalists with great effect. If you're not familiar with their music I'd strongly suggest you should remedy that as soon as possible for your own wellbeing and maybe start with their album Mezzanine which will probably have several tracks on it that you're familiar with.

                        Massive Attack - Teardrop

                        Love, love is a verb
                        Love is a doing word
                        Fearless on my breath
                        Gentle impulsion
                        Shakes me, makes me lighter
                        Fearless on my breath
                        Teardrop on the fire
                        Fearless on my breath
                        Night, night of matter
                        Black flowers blossom
                        Fearless on my breath
                        Black flowers blossom
                        Fearless on my breath
                        Teardrop on the fire
                        Fearless on my
                        Water is my eye
                        Most faithful mirror
                        Fearless on my breath
                        Teardrop on the fire
                        Of a confession
                        Fearless on…

                          In 2016 a DC Comics movie “Suicide Squad,” was released with great success. Yet again an iconic, extremely popular Eminem song, “Without Me ,” from 2002 was used to paint a picture. The picture painted –a master piece.

                          As at today’s date, “Without me,” is 15 years old. Wow, what an old school classic that is timeless and universal

                          So, my new favourite DC Comics superhero is Harley Quinn, played by Margot Robbie, who does a stunning job.

                          “But sometimes the shit just seems, everybody only wants to discuss me
                          So this must mean I'm disgusting, but it's just me I'm just obscene…….. Now this looks like a job for me so everybody just follow me
                          'Cause we need a little controversy, 'Cause it feels so empty without me”

                              The princess of pop: Kylie Minogue:I should be so lucky:1988



                              In my imagination
                              There is no complication
                              I dream about you all the time
                              In my mind a celebration
                              The sweetest of sensation
                              Thinking you could be mine

                              In my imagination
                              There is no hesitation
                              We walk together hand in hand
                              I'm dreaming
                              You fell in love with me
                              Like I'm in love with you
                              But dreaming's all I do
                              If only they'd come true

                              CHORUS
                              I should be so lucky
                              Lucky lucky lucky
                              I should be so lucky in love
                              I should be so lucky
                              Lucky lucky lucky
                              I should be so lucky in love


                              It's a crazy situation
                              You always keep me waiting
                              Because its only make believe
                              And I would come a-running
                              To give you all my loving
                              If one day you would notice me
                              My heart is close to breaking
                              And I can't go on faking
                              The fantasy that you'll be mine
                              I'm dreaming
                              That you're in love with me
                              Like I'm in love with you
                              But dreaming's all I do
                              If only they'd come true
                              I should be so lucky (so lucky, so lucky)
                              I should be so lucky
                              I, I, (I, I)
                              I should be so lucky (so lucky, so lucky)
                              I should be so lucky
                              I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I

                                Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit lonely and you're never coming round
                                Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears
                                Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by
                                Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes
                                Turnaround bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart
                                Turnaround bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart

                                And I need you now tonight
                                And I need you more than ever
                                And if you'll only hold me tight
                                We'll be holding on forever
                                And we'll only be making it right
                                Cause we'll never be wrong together
                                We can take it to the end of the line
                                Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time (all of the time)
                                I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
                                We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
                                I really need you tonight
                                Forever's gonna start tonight
                                Forever's gonna start tonight

                                Once upon a time I was falling in love
                                But now I'm only falling apart
                                There's nothing I can do
                                A total eclipse of the heart
                                Once upon a time there was light in my life
                                But now there's only love in the dark
                                Nothing I can do
                                A total eclipse of the heart

                                Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit restless and I dream of something wild
                                Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit helpless and I'm lying like a child in your arms
                                Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit angry and I know I've got to get out and cry
                                Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit terrified but then I see the look in you eyes
                                Turnaround bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart
                                Turnaround bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart

                                And I need you now tonight
                                And I need you more than ever
                                And if you'll only hold me tight
                                We'll be holding on forever
                                And we'll only be making it right
                                Cause we'll never be wrong together
                                We can take it to the end of the line
                                Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time (all of the time)
                                I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
                                We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
                                I really need you tonight
                                Forever's gonna start tonight
                                Forever's gonna start tonight

                                Once upon a time I was falling in love
                                But now I'm only falling apart
                                There's nothing I can do
                                A total eclipse of the heart

                                A total eclipse of the heart
                                A total eclipse of the heart
                                A total eclipse of the heart
                                A total eclipse of the heart
