So you found a new book?
Or maybe you just published one?
Did you find a new webcomic that you like?
Or a song you think everyone should hear?
No need for explanation…Just Share it.
You find a good deal that you think we should all see? Just share!
Or hey even a joke you think too fun not to share, Just share it.

Lyrics –
The beautiful poem by miss Sylvia Plath
The tulips are too excitable, it is winter here.
Look how white everything is, how quiet, how snowed-in.
I am learning peacefulness, lying by myself quietly
As the light lies on these white walls, this bed, these hands.
I am nobody; I have nothing to do with explosions.
I have given my name and my day-clothes up to the nurses
And my history to the anesthetist and my body to surgeons.
They have propped my head between the pillow and the sheet-cuff
Like an eye between two white lids that will not shut.
Stupid pupil, it has to take everything in.
The nurses pass and pass, they are no trouble,
They pass the way gulls pass inland in their white caps,
Doing things with their hands, one just the same as another,
So it is impossible to tell how many there are.
My body is a pebble to them, they tend it as water
Tends to the pebbles it must run over, smoothing them gently.
They bring me numbness in their bright needles, they bring me sleep.
Now I have lost myself I am sick of baggage——
My patent leather overnight case like a black pillbox,
My husband and child smiling out of the family photo;
Their smiles catch onto my skin, little smiling hooks.
My 2 cents –
Okay I know that this is a poem…being sung to music. But I love Sylvia Plath and I couldn’t Resist Sharing it. It is so pretty.

Lyrics –
[Verse 1]
Take me back to old Yazoo
Everything up here is new
I can’t stand it, just must landed
Going back to Old Yazoo
[Verse 2]
Everything you do
People got their eyes on you
It’s compelling, y’have me yelling
Going back to Old Yazoo
[Bridge]
If you don’t like beans and rice
Get your rice and beans
If you don’t like greens and ham
Just get your ham and greens
[Verse 3]
How long will I have you wait?
Standing at the station gate
Broken hearted, gotta get started
Going back to Old Yazoo
[Chorus]
Oh, take me back to Old Yazoo
Everything up here is new
I can’t stand it, just must landed
Going back to Old Yazoo
Everything you do
Peoplе got their eyes on you
It’s compеlling, y’have me yelling
“Take me back to Old Yazoo”
[Post-Chorus]
If you don’t like beans and rice
Get your rice and beans
If you don’t like greens and ham
Just get your ham and greens
Lordy, lordy
[Verse 4]
How long will I have to wait
Standing at the station gate
I’m broken hearted
Gotta get started
Going back to old Yazoo
[Refrain]
Yazoo (Yazoo)
Yazoo (Yazoo)
Yazoo (Yazoo)
Yazoo (Yazoo)
I am going to Yazoo, that’s where I belong
Everything I tell you seems to be all wrong
Yazoo (Yazoo)
Yazoo (Yazoo)
[Vocalizing Interlude]
[Outro]
Going back to old Yazoo
(Going back to old Yazoo)
My 2 cents –
My son felt like this was a silly song. To me it feels like old Jazz. It has a lovely feel to it. And it is different than the music you hear today.

Lyrics –
I know you, I walked with you once upon a dream
I know you, the gleam in your eyes is so familiar a gleam
Yet, I know it’s true that visions are seldom all they seem
But if I know you, I know what you’ll do
You’ll love me at once, the way you did once upon a dream
La-la, la-la, la, ah, ah, ah
But if I know you, I know what you’ll do
You’ll love me at once
The way you did once upon a dream
I know you, I walked with you once upon a dream
I know you, the gleam in your eyes is so familiar a gleam
And I know it’s true that visions are seldom all they seem
But if I know you, I know what you’ll do
You’ll love me at once, the way you did once upon a dream
My 2 cents –
This version has a dreamy feel to it. I love the song overall, but this one suits the song better.

Lyrics –
I shut my eyes
You call but I just cut the line
I know your style
I know that you want one more night
And I’m backsliding
Into this just one more time
Too far from over you
Beams from your M2
Are blowing through my room
And now you
Lay down in my shoes
You dyed your hair blue
Oh, so much déjà vu
And now
I can feel your love
Your temporary touch
It’s a hit and run
You go back there when you’re done
Don’t you want some more
‘Cause I can feel your love
That purple touch
Everyone who sees you falls in love
You eat us up
You live like you’re on camera
You slide on top
A moon to all the juice in us
Too far from over you
Beams from your M2
Are blowing through my room
And now you
Lay down in my shoes
You dyed your hair blue
Oh, so much déjà vu
And now
I can feel your love
Your temporary touch
It’s a hit and run
You go back there when you’re done
Don’t you want some more
‘Cause I can feel your love
Maybe in time
When we’re both better at life
Daylight can open my eyes
And you’ll still be by my side
But meanwhile
I’ve got my contact high
You’ve got your powdered lies
We’ve got these summertime nights
Night by night
I let you eat me alive
I want you to eat me alive
I want you to eat me alive
I can feel your love
Your temporary touch
It’s a hit and run
You go back there when you’re done
I can feel your love
Your temporary touch
It’s a hit and run
You go back there when you’re done
I can feel your love
Your temporary touch
It’s a hit and run
You go back there when you’re done
Don’t you want some more
‘Cause I can feel your love
I can feel your love
I can feel your love
I can feel your love
I can feel your love
I can feel your love
My 2 cents –
my son recommended this to me and it is so powerful.
