I wondered where those crickets were coming from...  BOS XTC "Summer's Cauldron" from the brilliant Skylarking. Let's relax in the undertow.

Drowning here in Summer's Cauldron
Under mats of flower lava
Please don't pull me out this is how I would want to go
Breathing in the boiling butter
Fruit of sweating golden Inca
Please don't heed my shout I'm relax in the undertow

When Miss Moon lays down
And Sir Sun stands up
Me I'm found floating round and round
Like a bug in brandy
In this big bronze cup
Drowning here in Summer's Cauldron

Trees are dancing drunk with nectar
Grass is waving underwater
Please don't pull me out this is how I would want to go
Insect bomber Buddhist droning
Copper chord of August's organ
Please don't heed my shout I'm relaxing in the undertow

When Miss Moon lays down
in her hilltop bed
And Sir Sun stands up
raise his regal head
Me I'm found floating round and round
Like a bug in brandy
In this big bronze cup
Drowning here in Summer's Cauldron

Very sad not to hear "Grass".  They really shouldn't be divided like that.

That's poetry

BOS2 Springsteen's cover of War.

Blind faith in your leaders will get you killed. Even more true today.

Simon Says "play me again".

there's a girl in NYC who calls herself the Human Trampoline. And her name is Scarlett Johanssen.

All we need it to hear is the Georgia Satellites to make this set sound just like 1986 to me.

Ah, Van Hagar instead. That'll do it, too.

Bleah - WOS for Van Hagar.

Triple-Jinx for Hagar the Horrible.

I especially hate the line: "Only time will tell if we stand the test of time."  That's just bad.  NOT poetry.
