You know how it is?
There I was flitting about on u tube,listen to a few songs,leave a
few comments, I never know where I'll end up, well last night I ended
up listening to the one and only, the very talented Joe Jackson.
It was so long ago I
had almost forgotten how good he sounded,he made it sound so
easy,mellow,I think that's what I mean. My favourite was and still is
“Different for girls” it was the sound of the decade for me and
an interesting part of my life played out with this song somewhere in
the background.
As I listened it was
almost as if I was watching a video of myself as I was over thirty
years ago.It was a time of excitement, intense happiness and just as
intense heart wrenching pain. In fact it seems to me that we all
spend most of our adult lives in one of those states or another.
Before I realised it I
was visiting places in my mind that I had avoided ,with grim
determination for years.
None of this is at all
relevant to what I wish to say,and don't ask me what I was thinking
about because I shan't tell!”
What I really wanted to
say is that while reading the comments on the site I was visiting I
realised that,as the song says “You're all the same” men that
is,now as then. If you want to know what I mean watch the clip and
read the comments,honestly ,flippin' fella's!
