YESTERDAY

Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away.

Now it looks as though they're here to stay.

Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly, I'm NOT HALF THE MAN I USED TO BE

There's a shadow hanging over me.

Oh, yesterday came suddenly.

WHY SHE HAD TO GO?

I don't know, SHE WOULDN’T SAY.

I said something wrong.

Now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday LOVE WAS SUCH AN EASY GAME TO PLAY

NOW I NEED A PLACE TO HIDE AWAY

Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Why she had to go?

I don't know, SHE WOULDN’T SAY.

I said something wrong.

Now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday LOVE WAS SUCH AN EASY GAME TO PLAY.

NOW I NEED A PLACE TO HIDE AWAY.

Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm.

Without YESTERDAY… there is no today…or… tomorrow

So Hold Me Tight

It feels so right, now hold me tight

Tell me I'm the only one

And then I might

Never be the lonely one

So hold me tight tonight

Tonight it’s you you you

you…

Psst.  Got six minutes to spare?

Wanna hear something awesome?

VoicePlay just released an a capella cover of Metallica’s Nothing Else Matters, and it is glorious.

Nothing Else Matters - VoicePlay

For those not familiar, VoicePlay is a group of skilled professional vocalists who’ve been performing for over a decade.  Although they’re known as the ‘theater kids of a capella’ and their videos are often cinematic, playful or even downright goofy, none of that is in evidence here.  This performance is restrained, contemplative, masterful, and eminently respectful of James Hetfield’s iconic 1992 power ballad.

Geoff (Bass,) Layne (Baritone and Percussion,) Eli (Tenor,) Cesar (Tenor/Baritone,) featured guest J.None (Baritone), indefatigable Production Manager Kathy Castellucci, and their crew went through hell to get this video put together.  The result, IMO, speaks for itself.

tl;dr: It rocks.

If I am full of baloney…please slip me a note and I can block you from my shenanigans

Is this Victor Barsan? I wish to meet you

You have more than one thing over on me…

I’ll show you mine

If you show me yours

Only joshing

And you are❓❓❓❓❓❓❓❓❓❓

Does he owe you money❓

If so

I am not me

Can’t dance

This song is about eschewing love for sex, the "perfect prize that waits among the shells," for which the bait is a quick, loveless seduction, while real love is the real reward. And anyone who remembers The Wizard of Oz knows that the Tin Man really wanted a heart, which the Wizard showed him he already had…

[rotcivnasrab]

Oz never gave nothing to the Tin Man that he didn’t already have…

CRIPES put my physical and mental health in a paper bag…shake it 🆙 pull one out… six of one a half dozen of the other …SAME OL’ SAME OL’

It ain’t easy being me…

Ain’t got much…till I loose my askew sense of humor.

The story of my death is greatly exaggerated…(not greatly, if even a wee bit…works for me)
