It was good enough for Pete Townshend and Eddie Vedder to cover. Works for me this evening ondeck.

Two dozen other stupid reasons
Why we should suffer for this?
Don't bother trying to explain them
Just hold my hand while I come to a decision on it
Sooner or later
Your legs give way
You hit the ground
Save It For Later
Don't run away and let me down
Sooner or later
You hit the deck
You’ll get found out
Save It For Later

The evening’s “live” selection on deck from Mr. Jackson; a gem from my sophomore year in high school.

Watched ‘Flashdance’ with a mate a while back. First time I’ve seen the film since it came out in the mid-80s.

And you know - yes, the storyline is implausible and the characters are cliches, but it’s loads of fun and some of the dancing is fabulous (although you don’t want to look too closely or the editing is screamingly obvious).

I’ve seen interviews where dancers said ‘Flashdance’ was what inspired them to start dancing.

Best of all is the soundtrack. Some absolute bangers on it!

And the fact that it was a low budget film with no real stars. The studio hadn’t expected it to be a huge hit.

A pretty sunset from ondeck this evening. Wish the world could match the prettiness and not be such a friggen, frightening pile of crap that some people choose to make.

So I'm sailing for tomorrow My dreams are a dyin'
And my love is an anchor tied to you
Tied with a silver chain
I have my ship and all her flags are a' flyin'
She is all that I have left and music is her name

Those pesky bedtime ear worms, though.

I've nothing much to offer
There's nothing much to take
I'm an absolute beginner
And I'm absolutely sane
As long as we're together
The rest can go to hell
I absolutely love you
But we're Absolutely Beginners
With eyes completely open
But nervous all the same

Well, the image of the Milky Way over Lake Superior went and triggered an ear worm and the proverbial 80s “one hit wonder.”

Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find

And it's something quite peculiar
Something that's shimmering and white
It leads you here despite your destination
Under the Milky Way tonight

On the way home-type jam: one of the best if not THE best from Eurythmics.

It was fun for a while
There was no way of knowing
Like a dream in the night
Who can say where we're going?
No care in the world
Maybe I'm learning
Why the sea on the tide
Has no way of turning

More Than This
You know there's nothing
More Than This
Tell me one thing
More Than This
No there's nothing
