It's too early for the rainbow, too early for the dove
These are your final days, this is the darkness, this is the flood
And there is no man, no woman, can't be touched
But you who come between them, will be judged

So where, where is my Gypsy wife tonight?
Where, where is my Gypsy wife tonight?

TAKE IT!
Take another little piece of my heart now baby,
BREAK IT!
Break another little bit of my heart now darling, yeah...

So, I was wondering the other day about the criterion to choose a set of the day here at SG. It seems that finally it depends on the number of comments and positive votes, which as I said is democratic and not completely unfair, though not completely fair either since it depends on how much a set can be promoted to get more comments and...

So if I asked you who are the two best artists (music) ever, no doubt you would answer: Leonard Cohen and Joni Mitchell.

I knew about many coincidences between the two: Both are Canadian, both started around 1966-67 their musical careers, both were introduced as musicians by Judy Collins, both play the guitar, sing and write the best lyrics in folk-pop-rock history,...

Continuing with music that bring me old memories, I found today online an album that a friend brought from Ireland in 1991 and that got lost soon after. It's the first one from the short lived band The Stunning. Listen to this lovely song.

Wow, I had not seen this video for over 20 years. Fantastic!

So I'm wondering what's the criterion for choosing the sets here at SGs. I see some great sets that seem to stay in member's review for ages even if they are better (IMO) than others that do go live. Does it depend on someone's opinion? Well, each person has a different opinion, so I guess that's understandable. Or does it depend on how many people...

"The reason I write is to make something as beautiful as you are".

I obviously didn't write that originally, nor will I ever write something as beautiful as you are. And by "you", I mean YOU. Yes, you who are reading this. Because if you're reading this, you've surely been blessed with beauty as a gift. And this post should have just been a mirror...

Entreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God: Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried: the LORD do so to me, and more also, if ought but death part thee...

So since the previous was confusing I guess I could have simply wrote one sentence, also from Leonard Cohen:

Take this longing from my tongue.

But more with my mood today and to continue with Cohen (and tongue ) I'd rather write:

And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
