Thank god for pop songs

It's strange -it's very strange- but when I go out in the town I come from with my pre-internet friends, I get sad. I feel everything is wrong. Okay, maybe not everything - certainly not everything - but a whole lot of things.

Explaining this would take a book not a blog entry but it's true. I get sad. I don't know about them -if they get sad too- but really, really, I think they're sad all the time. Though I should say I think he is sad all the time because I am, more or less, left with one pre-internet friend in this city now. Actually I'm left with one friend of any sort in this city but this doesn't matter very much and it's not what I wanted to tell you... No, I wanted to tell you that this time when I came back instead of going to bed or writing a letter -which is what I would naturally do- I took some of my 7" and decided to play them... and somehow the Occasional Flickers singing "give me a chance to see behind your eyes/ give me some time to think twice/ and then I might find what's behind the sky" made things fall into place again.

I could write an essay about it but I think I'll just say, thank god for pop songs.
