"The Seeker" by The Who

"I've looked under chairs (I've looked under tables) - I've tried to find the key, to 50 million fables! They call me the 'seeker': I've been searchin' low & high (I won't get to get, what I'm after, 'till the day I die)..."

* GOOD tune, for an "oldie" (& ordinarily, I'm not a "huge WHO fan"...)

APK

P.S.=> Did you guys know, that Roger Daltry (lead singer for the WHO), almost ended up being Led Zeppelin's lead singer (vs. Robert Plant)? Bit of trivia there... apk

**APK** · 01:08pm

"Vertigo" - by U²

* "Hello, Hello (HOLA!) - I'm @ a place called 'VERTIGO' (Dónde está?)"

APK

P.S.=> A great "upbeat" tune, for a GREAT day today (75° F outside, not too humid, & SUNNY!)... apk

**APK** · 03:35pm

Listening to a particular tune again... & I can't delete this post, so... to the bottom she goes!

APK

**APK** · 03:26pm

"Don't Let Me Get Me" - PINK

APK

**APK** · 02:35pm

My teapot going "ape", whistling its 'you-know-what' off... lol!

* About to have some STRONG 'black tea', so I can get myself "motivated" & as far as tunes?

Well:

"Horse With No Name" - AMERICA

"I've been thru the desert, on a horse with no name..."

APK

P.S.=> Going w/ an "oldie, but a goodie", for now (as far as tunes!)... EDITING NOW (during tea!):

"You can't kill Rock & Roll" - Ozzy Osbourne

(GREAT TUNE - CLASSIC!)

"The things they will do, and the things they will say - but, they DON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND! And, they don't even know, even, what they're talkin' about... (& I envy their emptiless energy!) Leave me alone, don't want your promises NO MORE... cuz' ROCK & ROLL is my religion & my law... Won't ever change: May think it's strange - you can't kill rock & roll (it's here to stay, yeeeaaa!)"

(I think I got the lyrics right, lol, & man... The late Randy Rhodes on guitar, what a shame he passed... makes me wonder what he would have done had he lived, & thru all the time since he died (he was GREAT, as is, but time would have probably made him moreso (especially over that long a period, he died what? 20++ yrs. ago?))... apk

**APK** · 03:22pm

"'SHIFTING GEARS'" NOW:

-----

"Rock is Dead" - by Marilyn Manson

"GOD IS IN THE T.V. ..."

(Usually, I am NOT much into this guy... but, he did do a 'good job' on this tune, & I really DO like + understand what he's trying to say in this one (my interpretation is something along the lines of 'the decline of a civilization'))

BUT, then again, this guy's a pretty fairly intelligent guy, from interviews I have seen him do - he's out to make money, & is QUITE honest about that too (he knows how 'easy it is' to stir up youth, especially via their dissatisfactions w/ things - like most "heavy metal" music is like, it's "protest oriented" many times)

-----

Same w/ "RAP" too (protest oriented imo):

"Youth of the Nation" - P.O.D.

"Last day, of the rest of my life (wish I would've known, cuz' I would have kissed my mama 'goodbye') - I didn't tell her that I loved her/how much I cared... &, thank my pops for the talks & all the wisdom he shared! Unaware, I just did, what I always do: Every day the same routine, before I stay after school - Well, WHO KNEW, that THIS DAY WASN'T LIKE THE REST (instead of takin' the test? I took 2 to the chest)... Call me blind, but I didn't see it comin', & everybody was running, but I couldn't hear nothin' EXCEPT - gunblasts! (it happened SO FAST)..."

* Reminds me of my neighborhood... too bad, used to be a GOOD place, but now?

I hope the next gov't. in the USA straightens up the job situation... when folks don't have good coins (good jobs)? Troubles start, imo @ least... &, I think that IS @ the root of all this lunacy!

APK

P.S.=> Just "passing time", until my tennant gets back, so we can enjoy a bottle of Shiraz (dry wine, 0% sugar, POWERFUL, & good: Makes me "smiley", lol) + a game of chess in the sun, near our garden... apk

**APK** · 03:37pm

"All My Life" - The Foo Fighters

"Hey - WHAT A TOTAL WASTE (I love it (BUT, I hate the taste...)) - Way keepin' ME DOWN!!!"

APK

P.S.=> Very, VERY "rowdy" tune... lol, 'gets me going'... ordinarily, I am NOT into this band, but... this tune's a 'departure' from their 'usual norm' &, I LIKE IT! apk

**APK** · Jun 29, 2008, 04:39pm

"DreamLine" - by RUSH

* Great tune, about my kind of people...

"Learning that we're only immortal (For a limited time!)"

(What a GREAT line/lyric...)

APK

P.S.=> This band (along w/ one called Triumph from decades ago)? Best product out of Canada, people-wise, alongside Ms. Pamela Anderson... apk

**APK** · Jun 30, 2008, 08:02pm

"Dani California" - Red Hot Chilipeppers

"California: Rest In Peace..."

APK

P.S.=> What I like best about this band is, is that they're "different" sounding... apk

**APK** · 12:48pm

The theme from "MISSION IMPOSSIBLE", albeit, the U² 'techno-remix':

(& now, in 'celebration', with a cup of STRONG coffee afterwards (Certain of my assignments for pay were delivered today, took rest of the day off, after popping in to report for pay next round, etc.))...

Need that coffee today, after spending the evening out w/ this woman I know who works @ my fav. restaurant nearby, lol, after playing computer games w/ her of ALL things, lol!

I stopped in to see her as I drove by the place & said "Hey, why not? She's awesome", as she's smokin' hot AND cool too (so, since it was slow + she had a laptop with her which I thought was hilarious & neat @ the same time)... glad I did! I really like her, in a lot of ways, & that's rare for me.

(Man - I imagine, the funny part of last night would have been watching me this a.m., as I JUST got home to get ready only shortly before having to do this stuff today too, man... "Severly 'Pushing the Envelope' of speed limits" is what I would have called it this a.m. @ around sunrise, in my ride making it home first to get ready, & THEN, to report on time for pay, etc., too!)

* Today? Well, it's looking alright after that... by all means (coins & dead-presidents on the way, especially)

"MISSION ACCOMPLISHED"

APK

P.S.=> Upon edit, changing to this tune:

"Building a Mystery" - Sara McLaughlin

** Great tune...

Edit #2 : Into RUSH "Dreamline" now... with that coffee (another cup!) - haven't heard it in ages, good stuff too - I had it B L A S T I N G in my ride on the rush home... good tune to drive to, with a std. shift especially (attempted to shift in time w/ its beat, @ times, was fun!)

Love THIS line from it -> "Learning that we're only immortal, for a limited time..." apk
