I am seriously ODing on 80’s ballads. This is not good. I’m getting miserable again listening to them. Especially since I found a very significant song (at least in my mind) from our past. Another one I remember well is “Gypsy” by Suzanne Vega. I had it on a tape and played it as we returned from her home once. All that’s running through my head at the moment are love songs, lyrics meshing and twisting around one another. :o) You want to know what I downloaded? I’m a bit ashamed, but here’s a sample:
Peter Gabriel, Your Eyes
Christopher Cross, Sailing
Chris Deburg, Lady in Red
Breathe, Sweet Caress
Peter Cetera and Crystal Bernard, Forever Tonight
Peter Cetera and Amy Grant, Next Time I Fall
Peter Cetera and Cher (he certainly did a lot of duets, didn’t he?), After All
Journey, Faithfully
Richard Marx, Endless Summer Nights
Among others… *sigh* Okay. That’s it. I’m going to be productive for a good, solid half hour, then go to bed. Okay, maybe I’ll write in here before I go to bed. Who knows.
o/~ all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside o/~
