my wizard scar still burns for you

Sometimes I need a little Harry and the Potters ot cheer me up. I'm always amazed that not everyone in the whole world thinks this is the best song ever written. I get that not everyone is into Harry Potter, but I think this song is pretty universal. Its just about a guy who really likes this girl, but she's with another guy. But finally, they get together, and it feels like his insides are dancing the conga line. But then he has to leave her because circumstances are such that they can't be together at that moment. But he'll be back. Pretty universal. This video is great because it pretty well captures why they're so awesome in concert. Everything is off the chain. everyone's dancing. no one cares except to have fun and enjoy the moment. le sigh. back to wills

Jublilation! She loves me again! I fall on the floor and I laughing

I used to listen to a lot of paul simon. I have probably 6 of his albums. And I still like him quite a bit, tho, for whatever reason, I hardly listen any more. Nevertheless, I still consider Graceland to be one of the perfect albums in music histroy. Like Disintegration and London Calling, there's just no way you can say anything negitive about it. The song posted is, obviously, the title track, second cut on the album, and I'd say my favorite track, but I can't because the whole thing is just so great.

One thing I think is particularly special about paul simon is his story telling ability, and this song represents that well. It's also filled with such great lines as "there's a girl in New York City, who calls herself the human trampeline. And sometimes when i'm falling, flying, or tumbling in turmoil I say 'whoa, so this is what she means.'" Great.

Of course, the line in my subject heading is from Cecilia. I remember when I first heard this song. or at least, was first aware of it. Junior year in high school. retreat. hm. interesting.
