"If you're going to be delusional, why not go for the really satisfying ones?" -Marcus, "Babylon 5"

here's a youtube clip of it, for some reason attached to some stuff about peace pipes and Native American Indians.

I can do all three in sync. Any song.

"And the rocket's red glare..." that part sucks! :o

I so wish I had Ann Wilson's voice

Bad Seed, by LOA, sung by Keith Caputo...I wish I had Caputo's voice...

There is a waiter at the Awanhee Hotle that does this during Sunday brunch and it is truly amazing. makes the whole day so much better.

...one of the most beautiful and dark of all jazz standards.

Written by Billy Strayhorn (a gay African-American) in the 1930's when he was 16 years old!

Unbelievable.

Sinatra had to set it aside because it was so fucking heavy.

Here's the lyrics...


I used to visit all the very gay places
Those come what may places
Where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life
To get the feel of life...
From jazz and cocktails.

The girls I knew had sad and sullen gray faces
With distant gay traces
That used to be there you could see where they'd been washed away
By too many through the day...
Twelve oclock tales.

Then you came along with your siren of song
To tempt me to madness!
I thought for a while that your poignant smile was tinged with the sadness
Of a great love for me.

Ah yes! I was wrong...
Again,
I was wrong.

Life is lonely again,
And only last year everything seemed so sure.
Now life is awful again,
A troughful of hearts could only be a bore.

A week in paris will ease the bite of it,
All I care is to smile in spite of it.

I'll forget you, I will
And yet you are still burning inside my brain.
Romance is mush,
Stifling those who strive.

Ill live a lush life in some small dive...
And there Ill be, while I rot
With the rest of those whose lives are lonely, too..

I can hit some of the notes, but when she gets up in the higher octaves, I just can't hit the notes, I sound like a screeching howler monkey.
