The latest twitters

Sporadic, short bursts of thought.

• 11:06 National Coffee Day? Right up my alley. I'm sipping my usual Brothers (Publix) Foglifter blend. Yum. Coffee. #

Space: Space Oddity - David Bowie

"" (Watch on YouTube)

Party: Mama Told Me (Not To Come) - The Three Dog Night

This one was written by Randy Newman, originally recorded by Eric Burdon.

This is the craziest party there could ever be!
Don't turn on the lights, 'cause I don't want to see!

Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
That ain't the way to have fun, no...

Darkness: The Sound Of Silence - Simon and Garfunkel

Hello, darkness, my old friend, I've come to talk with you again.
Because a vision softly creeping left its seeds while I was sleeping.
And the vision that was planted in my brain still remains within the sound of silence.

Reading: The Book I Read - The Talking Heads

I'm writing 'bout the book I read.
I have to sing about the book I read.
I'm embarrassed to admit it hit the soft spot in my heart
When I found out you wrote the book I read...

Touch: Invisible Touch - Genesis

She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
She reaches in, and grabs right hold of your heart.
She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart.

New: Brand New Key - Melanie

Well, I got a brand new pair of roller skates, you've got a brand new key.
I think that we should get together and try them out, you see.

Gone: Gone - Ferlin Husky

An old country ballad from 1957. I think a few have covered it, I know it well
because of a very nice cover Donny and Marie Osmond did of it on one of their albums when I was a kid. Ha!

Since you've gone
The moon, the sun, the stars in the sky
Know the reason why I cry
Love divine once was mine
Now you've gone.

Jazz: Le Jazz Hot (from "Victor Victoria")

Oh, baby, won't you play me
"Le Jazz Hot" maybe?
And don't ever let it end.

Song: Your Song - Elton John

And you can tell everybody this is your song.
It may be quite simple, but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
that I put down in words how wonderful life is
while you're in the world.

Bag: The Ballad of John and Yoko - John Lennon

Made a lightning trip to Vienna
Eating chocolate cake in a bag
The newspapers said
'She's gone to his head,
they look just like two gurus in drag!'
