Coming up to 28 months... I'm sure some numerologist would have a field day, our anniversary was the 28th, we met on the 28th, the final day was the 28th etc etc. But as anyone who knows me knows it holds little store with my skeptical brain; but still a good leader one feels. See, that is a classic case of avoidance/distraction behaviour going on and believe me I have got really good at that in the last 28 months, real, real good.
Anyway, this wasn't to be a morbid post, that would be too easy and far too unconstructive - plus no one gets to read these anyway so from a cathartic point of view there would be little point, I have my own psyche for that crap. Juni and I always talked about having a song. She was far more into music than I was. My taste is probably the epitome of eclectic (or weird some people say) raging from Hawkwind, Led Zep, AC/DC through B52s and surf music to PIL and Green Day (and other punk and pop punk) all the way out to Jack Johnson with a bit of everything in between (Seasick Steve anyone?)... Juni's was more organised in a way and heavily revolving around Paul Weller and mod type music, with the Cure thrown in for good measure (early 80's you could add U2 and Aussie Rock like Midnight Oil). So, finding 'a song' looked like it would be hard... But really it wasn't, this is what was always playing at soppy times:
"Lovesong" - THE CURE 1989
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am home again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am whole again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am young again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am fun again
However far away
I will always love you
However long I stay
I will always love you
Whatever words I say
I will always love you
I will always love you
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am free again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am clean again
However far away
I will always love you
However long I stay
I will always love you
Whatever words I say
I will always love you
I will always love you
Along with Jack Johnson's 'Better Together' this is the song which will always, always be OUR SONG !
