It's Not Dark Yet

Shadows are falling and I’ve been here all day
It’s too hot to sleep, time is running away
Feel like my soul has turned into steel
I’ve still got the scars that the sun didn’t heal
There’s not even room enough to be anywhere
It’s not dark yet, but it’s getting there

Well, my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
Behind every beautiful thing there’s been some kind of pain
She wrote me a letter and she wrote it so kind
She put down in writing what was in her mind
I just don’t see why I should even care
It’s not dark yet, but it’s getting there

Well, I’ve been to London and I’ve been to gay Paree
I’ve followed the river and I got to the sea
I’ve been down on the bottom of a world full of lies
I ain’t looking for nothing in anyone’s eyes
Sometimes my burden seems more than I can bear
It’s not dark yet, but it’s getting there

I was born here and I’ll die here against my will
I know it looks like I’m moving, but I’m standing still
Every nerve in my body is so vacant and numb
I can’t even remember what it was I came here to get away from
Don’t even hear a murmur of a prayer
It’s not dark yet, but it’s getting there

Jesse & Joy: ¿Con quién se queda el perro? ("Who gets the dog?")

Mexican music sure ain't what it used to be! This is the story of a couple who have been together for a while, but now they're planning to separate. As they're deciding who gets the sofa and who gets the toaster, before they get so mad that they start tossing their suitcases in the street, they suddenly say, wait a minute, who gets the dog?

The video is cute. It starts with the happy couple in the rescue shelter, looking at all the dogs, and they both fall in love with a little puppy. The story's timeline is tracked by the dog growing older and larger. There are sweet scenes of the three of them going on picnics, playing in the yard and lounging around the house, as the puppy turns into a large retriever.

There's a twist at the end. A taxi pulls up to the house. The front door opens. The dog walks out, gets into the taxi... and rides away by himself.

Jesse & Joy seem to be pretty hot right now. My Verizon Latin-pop music-only station plays one of their songs about every hour. They're a brother-and-sister team from Mexico City; their mom is from Wisconsin.

The video is on YouTube. The lyrics in both English and Spanish are here.
 
I have seven titles of philosophy incomplete, a story, a couple poems, porn, numbers that help me, numbers that I help, numbers that would kill me, some games I never play, a clock that only shows 16 after at any hour, a locked cover page with a picture of the dos Equis guy that says, "I don't always slap bitches but when I do it's with my dick", and one song.

Nothing wrong with some mainstream candy either.
 
Proud Mary Tina Turner version
I never liked that as much as the original. It buries the story under some schlocky R&B riffs.

But that's nothing compared to how I feel about Janis Joplin's execrable cover of Kris Kristofferson's "Me and Bobby McGee." Simply being sung by a woman at all completely obliterates the song's message: That the 1960s simply had to end because our women grew up. Otherwise us guys would still be out there ridin' our motorcycles, gettin' high all the time, sleepin' in crash pads and panhandlin' for food. [Disclaimer: I never qualified as a hippie because I always had a job and a home. Although I did have a motorcycle (an expensive BMW), I wasn't high all the time.]

Well I was a hippie , lived in San Fran for awhile on Height and Ashbury, panhandled for a time, built my own motorcycle, crashed at various musicians and others artists homes and became a part of the hip generation for a brief time. I usually had a job however but panhandled for the fun of it because I use to "goof" on people whenever I could.

Here's my bike I made...

I've got 30 gigs on my ipad. Most of which is for movies and music.

Musically, I listen to a wide variety of things: Rock, country, alternative rock, rap, classical.

Darin is always worth listening to, and watching. :cool:
 
My song for this Sunday of May is this one: "Only the young" by Brandon Flowers.
