Why Go

This is a music video clip I found funny 

 

Johnny Cash-Hurt

Faithless-Take The Long Way Home

Take The Long Way Home

I lift you off the earth mundane and glum
Out of solar system where you passed the sun
‘Til all the fear in your heart is gone and so on

Walking through the world with no pressure
Inner peace beyond measure
I was leaving where it came in
When a man said stop
I want to have what you have
and get what you got

I got it sleeping rough on the streets in the rain
I got it learning to share my peoples pain
I got it making flowers grow in hearts of stone
I got it ‘cos I always take the long way home

I’ve been walking through the world with no pressure
Air’s fresher full of vigour life becomes my mirror
The further I go the more I know
Oh yeah, wherever the wind blow I’ll be there

Turned up in places that I never intended to go
And so ended my youth I once deepended on proof
Now I’m in the flow, there I things I know beyond knowing
I’ve seen a seed growing, I was going back home
When a man said stop, I want to have what you have
And get what you got

I got it sleeping rough on the streets in the rain
I got it learning to share my peoples pain
I got it making flowers grow in hearts of stone
I got it ‘cos I always take the long way home

Faithless-Music Matters Axell remix

Music Matters

(Cass Fox)
For all those who stood up and were counted
For all those for whom money was no motive
For all those for whom music was a message
I want to thank you

For making me
A little more sure
A little more wise
And courageous

You told me to look much further
You told me to walk much more
You told me that music matters
And to chase the dogs back from my door

I won’t stop here
I won’t be still until the sun sets
On us all..

(Maxi Jazz)
Under the sheets with my radio
Turn down low
So nobody know
It’s the late night show
Hopin’ to hear ‘Hey Joe’
Jimi was my hero
Head blown by Todd R. or was it a true star?
From Dali Lama to Tanamo
Curtis Mayfield
to Kurtis Blow
Singing into my pillow
And praying I don’t dose
Until my 9 Volt battery goes..

(Cass Fox-and Maxi Jazz in the background for part of it)
You told me to look much further
You told me to walk much more
You told me that music matters
And to chase the dogs back from my door

I won’t stop here
I won’t be still until the sun sets
On us all..

You told me to look much further
You told me to walk much more
You told me that music matters
And to chase the dogs back from my door

I won’t stop here
I won’t be still until the sun sets
On us all..

You told me that music matters..
You told me that music matters..
You told me that music matters..
You told me that music matters..

 

A sparrow fell through the vent in the bathroom last night. It must have somehow gotten into the attic and maybe was sitting near the vent to stay warm. The vent is just a plastic pannel. As I turned on the light and stepped into bathroom the sparrow fell through into the bathroom. It kept on tring to fly away bumping its head on the cealing.

I got it out of the bathroom and into the corrador to open the small back entrance thinking it could get out that way. But it couldn’t find its way out or it didn’t want to. I closed the door leaving only the small back entrance open and turn of the lights and left the corrador to see if it would find its way out by itself. That didn’t work because its sayed inside. It was staying in front of the open door at one point as I walked in. So I guess it didn’t want to go out just yet.

I closed the back entrance door and left the bird in the corrador for the night and in the morning I opened the door again and moved some things out of its way where it was in a corner between the furnance and the walls. It fly past me and out through the back door and outside. We have sparrows living in our eves at night. In the summer they were very noisy.
