No real reason for putting this here other than I love it.

A lovely chilled out number especially for Gramps..



Feel like an old railroad man
Ridin' out on the bluemont line
Hummin' along old dominion blues
Not much to see and not much left to lose
And i know i can walk along the tracks
It may take a little longer but i'll know
How to find my way back

I feel like an old railroad man
Who's really tried the best that he can
To make his life add up to something good
But this engine no longer burns on wood
And i guess i may never understand
The times that i live in
Are not made for a railroad man

I feel like an old railroad man
Getting on board at the end of an age
The station's empty and the whistle blows
Things are faster now
And this train is just too slow
And i know i can walk along the tracks
It may take a little longer but i'll know
How to find my way back

Another classic, in two live performances, sorry, couldn't choose between them

The first has a marvellous rawness about it, whilst the second (although it doesn't have a video as such) is worthy of inclusion since it is 'The greatest Rock n Roll band in the World' at their peak and in full flight.

Loving the Eels, what a voice that guy has. Beautiful Freak due a re-listen soon.

My nephew Peter, 5. Went up to see my sis totally randomly, I had other stuff to do but something persuaded me to endure the 2 hour drive. Sadly my doorbell pressing woke him up lol. She brought him into the living room, had a nice chat, something wasn't quite right though. His eyes rolled up, 2 mins later he's on the bathroom floor, cold towels. 5 mins later, ambulance. 10 mins later hospital bed, I think they tried about 6 different 'experts', refused to stop fitting. Apparently he got 'critical', was just a teeny wee bit away at all times. Will never forget the sight of him lying there before the intubation (belly swells enormously after constant fitting), he had a ton of drugs already but nothing was working. Yet another medic in civvies paged away from his dinner strolled in, took a look at Peter, looked through the sheet, and demanded a great big vial of some drug. Pulled him out of it, was really touch and go. Right as rain now, 6 years on. According to the main doc, he was probably fitting and going to die in his sleep, when the doorbell woke him up.

When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me i didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they didn't understand life.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Many-worlds_interpretation

The many-worlds interpretation is an interpretation of quantum mechanics that asserts the objective reality of the universal wavefunction, but denies the actuality of wavefunction collapse. Many-worlds implies that all possible alternative histories and futures are real, each representing an actual "world" (or "universe"). It is also referred to as MWI, the relative state formulation, the Everett interpretation, the theory of the universal wavefunction, many-universes interpretation, or just many-worlds.
The original relative state formulation is due to Hugh Everett in 1957.[2][3] Later, this formulation was popularized and renamed many-worlds by Bryce Seligman DeWitt in the 1960s and 1970s.[1][4][5][6] The decoherence approaches to interpreting quantum theory have been further explored and developed,[7][8][9] becoming quite popular.

Hugh Everett being the father of the singer in the video. Small world. Well, this one anyway.

Beautiful song.  Was our first dance at my first wedding, so mixed emotions when I hear it, but still love it.

just one more for now (promise).  I wanted to post a modern song in an effort to try to look a bit younger and cooler Cool

 I like the contrast of the feelgood melody/style of the song and the pretty dark subject matter.  Always feels a bit wrong to be singing happily along but I can't help myself

Saw an interview with Claudio of Coheed & Cambria, asked to give advice to aspiring rock stars: 'Listen to Maiden.'

After a strange and emotional week where I have to bury my brother in law, and a quest for songs for his funeral, I remembered years ago I wanted this to be played at mine.
