Surreptitiously, However...

Almost 23 1/2 years I've been capable of sentient thought and I still don't have a Divine Comedy album to show for it. For me, they're like an application form I've been meaning to fill out but that's just been sitting on my desk for a week - I know I should really do something about it but, for some reason or other, I just keep putting it off.

Top man for giving a mention to Jaques Brel as well. A man with a best of comp of his will always be a happy one! Must admit though that I only got to hear about him via translations of his songs like these...

David Bowie ft. Mike Garson - My Death (Live) - YouTube

Scott Walker performing Mathilde - YouTube

Frank Sinatra "If You Go Away" - YouTube

...as opposed to actually knowing anything worth knowing about French music.

Keep this up by the way - this journal's immense.
