so close yet so far away

kate bush was serving drinks behind the bar with sexy blonde 
I approached the bar. I approached a hero. The song we were 
working on earlier that day in the studio came over the radio. 
Win Your Love is playing over the radio right now and Kate Bush is 
standing right here in front of me. I got a cheeky grin on my face.
we stood there together as she mixed my drink and listened to a song 
about a little girl wishing for a broken arm. 
The atmosphere in the room shifts as the song enters the prechorus. 
I anticipate the chorus and stand there facing kate waiting to sense her reaction when the chorus comes in.
when we finally get to the chorus where the voices are meant to fly... a load of guitars come whaling smothering any trace of a vocal... Guitars WANKING ALL over the Chorus !!! its a catastrophe !!!! Sabotage !!!!!!!

    My friend, it is precisely the poet's task
    to interpret and record his dreamings.
    Belive me, man's truest madness
    is disclosed to him in dreams:
    all poetry and versification
    is nothing but true dream interpretation.

    Mein Freund!
    Das grad ist Dichters Werk
    daß er sein Träumen deut und merk.
    Glaubt mir,
    des Menschen wahrster Wahn
    wird ihm im Traume aufgetan:
    all Dichtkunst und Poeterei
    ist nichts als Wahrtraumdeuterei.

    (Wagner, Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg)

  2. ...So a goddess has dreamt of talking with a goddess... I have dreamt of talking with goddesses before; 3 of my goddesses... And I got to meet one of them in person after the dream. I wonder if I will ever dream of talking with you, or ever meet you.

    ...I say this to thank you for joining the ranks of my goddesses. Don't laugh too much at the word I keep using here. I must use it, because I can simply not tell you in words how happy your music has been making me since I finally discovered its existence ever so recently.

    Your music opens the sky for me. Bless you...
