Well, I had a day today. That’s why I had to post so late- a combination of tiredness, emotions, victory, and forgetfulness…mostly forgetfulness.
Tonight, I bring you a song by Eric Clapton that I know little about, but just heard it in the car a couple times and decided that it was a good song to do for the Sessions. It’s a new one I learned recently, so I hope that you’ll become a fan, too, if you haven’t heard it yet.
I do know that it’s from the early 1980s, but I’m willing to receive a full history lesson if anyone wishes to provide one for me. I enjoy the tune of this song and the kind of laid-back way Clapton sings it. I find that kind of funny considering how he’s proclaiming that he’s through putting-up with his significant other “runnin’ around” and “foolin’ around”. You think he’d be a bit angrier…
On a separate note, as this is meant to be a blog and not just a place to post videos, I’d like to extend a heartfelt condolence to anyone who has recently lost someone in their lives. The people who care about you won’t let you feel alone. I personally have felt that I wasn’t able to be there for people during some important times, but I feel good knowing that I can be there for them now and won’t let them down. I’m always available for hanging out, late-night Taco Bell, PS2 baseball, the movies, TV shows, baseball live on TV, or just general hanging-out at any time. And I don’t mean that as a sympathy thing, either. I mean it as that’s the way I’ve always wanted it to be, but haven’t had for a long time. So, I hope that it’s the way it’ll become from now on and into the future, no matter who ends up coming into or leaving our lives.
Good night everyone and stay tuned for another great tune from Chris Moore kicking off this week on the video blog. You know that a Sunday, Sunday, Sunday video means that person gets an Original Wednesday pick, so we’re all excited to see what he’ll come out with next!
