  1. I have to admit that I am surprised about The Only One holding steady! I really like the song, I just know the market isn't really into it.

  2. The Only One is OKAY, but something is lacking in it. It needs to be more exuberant, or sped up, or something. It's not bad, just kind of lackluster for a first single.

    Freakshow is the cat's teats, period.

  11. Off-topic, sort of... (Sorry, Craig. If it bothers you that I do this, just tell me to stop.)

    The song 'Where Do We Go From Heaven' by the Mighty Lemon Drops just popped into my head.

    I'm still feeling a bit bereft. :-(

    Craig, did they arrive home safely and happily?

    From COF Wednesday, 28 May:

    Underneath The Stars

    Floating here like this with you
    Underneath the stars aligned (at night?)
    For 13 billion years the view
    It's beautiful, and ours alone tonight
    Underneath the stars

    Spinning round and round with you
    Watching shadows melt the light
    Soft shining from our eyes, into (a tear?)
    Another space is ours alone tonight
    Watching shadows melt

    The waves....break
    The waves....break

    Whisper in my ear, a wish
    "We could drift away so far"
    Your voice inside my head, a kiss
    It's infinite, and ours alone tonight
    Watching shadows melt or We could drift away
    (Depends upon which version you're listening to)

    Flying here like this with you
    Underneath the stars aligned (at night?)
    For 13 billion years the view
    It's beautiful, and ours alone tonight
    Underneath the stars

    (swirling echo voice: Underneath The Stars)

    With everything gone
    And all still to come?
    Together as now
    Forever as one
    In each other's arms
    So near and so far
    Together as now
    Underneath the stars

    As the waves....break

  16. I just spoke to Cat on the phone. She's off to France in about 1.5 hours. She's got her laptop and hopes to check in during her journey.
