    It's been quite a while (ok, years, actually) since I've poked my head through this particular door. Where have ABook and El Kabong (my fellow Tool fan) gone to?

    dont know what happened to Abook but ElK morphed into pepe silvia. last we heard he got married and moved houses. so i guess hes eyeball deep in domestic bliss and an actual life. 8-)
    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me

    Ah, thank you! I haven't (yet) spoken with his new incarnation but I do hope he's well.

    (and hopefully done morphing)
  • just heard this on the radio at work.. have not listened to this cd in 5 years or so...gotta dig that one out at some point...

    Got a box full of letters,
    Think you might like to read
    Some things that you might like to see,
    But they're all addressed to me

    Wish I had a lotta answers,
    'Cause that's the way it should be
    For all these questions,
    Being directed at me

    I just can't find the time
    To write my mind
    The way I want it to read

    You'll come back again
    And I'll still be your friend

    I got a lot of your records,
    In a separate stack
    Some things that I might like to hear,
    But I guess I'll give 'em back

    I wish I had a lotta answers,
    'Cause that's the way it should be
    All these questions
    Being directed at me

    Just can't find the time
    To write my mind
    The way I want it to read

    You'll come back again,
    And I'll still be your friend

    I can't find the time
    To write my mind
    The way I want it to read

    Just can't find the time
    To write my mind
    The way I want it to read

    I think Thom is one of those with a voice not necessarily considered "good", but damned honest - from the soul. Kinda like Shannon Hoon's, in a way. It either resonates or not.

    Both do with me.

    My falling-for-them moment was upon first hearing OK Computer, well after it was released (as has happened with much of my beloved music).
  • It's amazing how much time love saves you at first
    When you rediscover your reason to work
    And your aimless dreaming has found a target and
    You normalize and greet all function returned

    Came home early, a quarter to two
    I don't need more wine, I'm coming for you

    We carry pictures in our pretend wallets
    Of ourselves in heavily edited seventies
    With better handwriting and longer days at the park
    And dinners with no drama, the Professor, and Mary Ann

    Came home early, a quarter to two
    I don't need more wine, I'm coming for you

    When I was young
    I didn't know if I was better off asleep or up
    Now I've grown up
    I wonder what was that world I was dreaming of?

    When I was young
    I didn't know if I was better off asleep or up
    And I've grown up
    I wonder what was that world I was dreaming of?
    What was that world I was dreaming of?
    What was that world I was dreaming of?

    Late summer return
    Airless apartment I lean out the window
    Deals on irregular shirts
    Same fright delight as last year more so

    When I was young
    I didn't know if I was better off asleep or up
    Now I've grown up
    I wonder what was that world I was dreaming of?
    What was that world I was dreaming of?
    What was that world I was dreaming of?

    Now I've grown up
    I wonder what was that world I was dreaming of?
    What was that world I was dreaming of?
    What was that world I was dreaming of?

  • I just unearthed this:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xzZBabm

    It includes clips from the movie "The Fountain" looks like an interesting movie.

    Secret Separation

    We are passengers in time
    Lost in motion, locked together
    Day and night, by trick of light
    But I must take another journey
    We must meet with other names
    Mmm, we must meet with other names

    You touched my heart so deeply
    You rescued me now free me
    Don't watch me cry just see me go
    I'll take away the strongest feelings
    you will ever know

    (chorus)
    There will be no more isolation
    in our secret separation
    You touched my heart so deeply
    you rescued me
    Now free me

    We are passengers in time
    Lost in motion, locked together
    Day and night, by trick of light
    But I must take another journey
    We must meet with other names
    If you hold me you will hurt me
    Be brave

    (chorus)

    We are matching spark and flame
    caught in endless repetition
    Life for life we'll be the same
    I must leave before you burn me
    I am the stranger who deserts you
    only to love you
    in another life


    (chorus)

    I'll bear one precious scar
    that only you will know
    Passengers in time, free me

    (repeat 4x to fade)

    One of those comforting memories that has stayed with me...more than ten years ago, on the old incarnation of this board, I remember listening to and posting about this song late at night - Nothingman, Milan 2000.

    Kat! I think you were there that evening, along with PJMom. It was a night much like this...peaceful. Tonight, soft rain, and candle-lit.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEuzTSj8 ... 9731365B70

    Those voices in unison - "once divided" (ironic, I know) - still gets me....right here.

    One of the many beloved Georges for which our kitty was named.

    So perfect for this sleepy Sunday morning...the sun keeps shining through the clouds.

    Dig that beard!
  • I posted on that vid about George looking for his sunshine in the audience before he starts the song. :lol:
  • hedonisthedonist Posts: 24,524
    I just checked some of the comments and saw this - "I want to live in his beard" :mrgreen:
  • lol :lol:

    I went to go check for the comment missing. :(

    Id have to go thru like 400 of my favs to see if its the same user he was kinda impressed that Id said that. ;)

    For my "U". He's different, this much I know :mrgreen:

    *Talkin' Bout A Revolution*

    Don?t you know, they?re talkin? 'bout a revolution
    It sounds like a whisper
    Don?t you know, they?re talkin? 'bout a revolution
    It sounds like a whisper

    While they?re standing in the welfare lines
    Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
    Wasting time, in the unemployment lines
    Sitting around, waiting for a promotion

    Don?t you know, they?re talkin? 'bout a revolution
    It sounds like a whisper
    Poor people gonna rise up and get their share
    Poor people gonna rise up and take what?s theirs

    Don?t you know, you better run, run, run, run, run
    Run, run, run, run, run, run, run
    Oh, I said you better, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
    Run, run, run, run, run

    'Cus finally the tables are starting to turn, talkin? 'bout a revolution
    'Cus finally the tables are starting to turn, talkin? 'bout a revolution, oh no
    Talkin? 'bout a revolution ,oh

    While they're standing in the welfare lines
    Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
    Wasting time in the unemployment lines
    Sitting around waiting for a promotion

    Don?t you know, they?re talkin? 'bout a revolution
    It sounds like a whisper

    And finally the tables are starting to turn, talkin? 'bout a revolution
    Yes, finally the tables are starting to turn, talkin? 'bout a revolution, oh no
    Talkin? bout a revolution, oh no, talkin? bout a revolution, oh no

    *BI*

    People, if they choose you, then they want you to decide
    But youd rather relax, kick back, enjoy the ride
    Theres a catagory if youre straight or gay
    Youre a wild card gambler and you like it both ways
    Everybody wants you when youre bi
    Looking at the girls and eyeing all the guys
    Everybody loves you when youre bi
    But the tension and the passions double amplified
    My lover told me, well, that shes bi
    I wanted to scream, there were tears in my eyes
    She said baby, baby, dont you cry
    cause the one I am with, youve been seeing on the side
    Everybody wants you when youre bi
    Eating with the girls and laughing with the guys
    Everybody loves you when youre bi
    But the tension and the passions double amplified
    Everybody wants you when youre bi
    Feeling all the girls and touching all the guys
    Well, everybody loves you when youre bi
    Well a friend of a friend of a friend told me
    Everybodys messed up with their sexuality
    Well a friend of a friend of a friend told me
    I need a closet big enough to live in
    A closet for the whole world to live in
    I want a closet big enough to live in
    A closet for the whole world to live in
    Everybody wants you when youre bi
    Loving all the girls and loving all the guys
    Everybody needs you when youre bi
    But the tension and the passions double amplified
    Everybody wants you [thats right]
    Everybody needs you [um-hum]
    Everybody likes you [Ill bet]
    Everybody loves you
    Everybody, yeah
    Everybody
    Everybody, come on now
    Everybody, [not me]
    Everybody, whoo
    Everybody, yeah
    Everybody, come on now
    Everybody
    Well everybody loves you
    Bi
    Licking all the girls
    Bi
    Licking all the guys
    Everybodys fucked up with their sexuality
    You like it both ways
    Like it both ways
    Bi
