Nice playlist jungle. I am still working it down but I have a few hours left.

I loved you in the morning
Our kisses deep and warm
Your hair upon the pillow
Like a sleepy golden storm

Many loved before us
I know that we are not new
In cities and in forests
They smiled like me and you.

But now its come to distances
And both of us must try
Your eyes are soft with sorrow
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye (refrain)

I'm not looking for another
As I wander in my time
Walking to a calling
Our steps will always rhyme

You know my love goes with you
As your love goes with me
Just the way it changes
Like the shoreline of the sea

Lets not talk of love or change
Things we can't untie
Your eyes are soft with sorrow
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye (refrain)

Leonard Cohen

Turn that Jungle music down....... :cool:

....just until we're out of town.

Good stuff . . . but no commemorative MJ?

His appeal in my view was mainly in an ability to cross popular racial and musical barriers by integrating new dance moves with R&B, motown, and rock; and he made a big impact on MTV. But he did not come up with anything very original musically. His abilities were not very strong as a songwriter or composer. Everything he did already existed in some form- R&B, pop, soul, Motown, rock, disco. I think he is best seen as a popular music icon who was able to bring pop music, dance and newly created media (MTV) to a much larger audience. I can't think of a single song he came out with during his most impactful period from 1980-1990 that had any impact on me as a person or as a musician. I was a teen at the time and musician at the time. I thought of him as a media sensation, a pop icon, a great dancer and a teen sex symbol. He was talented as all those things, but I believe his originality as a musician was rather limited. And I still think that after all these years.

To end on a genuine positive however, anyone who brings the love of music to a wider audience has done a nice thing for all, and Michael Jackson did that as much as anyone ever did during his lifetime. He was a great popularizer, bar none. And he had 25 more years coming to him that were taken away by cruel fate. As a person of similar age as Michael Jackson, I feel it is a genuine tragedy he checked out so early.
