RE: Sounds: You Don't Know What You Got Til It's Gone
Hey my friend, I had a choice of music for this week .. but your beautifully emotive words have sent me into a whirlwind of emotion and memory, life is seldom is easy .. but how lucky we are to have family and friends that have inspired such love, what a gift they have given us .. a gift that will continue to inspire us and to burn within us .. keeping us warm on the darkest nights, wrapped in a comfort blanket of memory and merriment.

Oh gosh, I feel honoured my words did that to you! This song has such sense of nostalgia - love Bowie. I actually couldn't listen to him for a long while though Jamie was a fan, and then something just 'clicked' and I got him. The Who did the same thing to me - I think I hated Tommy - but Jamie was such a fan and got me into them via Quadrophenia.
And yes, choosing to see it as a gift is such a better option - rather than a story of loss and lamentation, it becomes a story of beauty, love, luck, light and joy. Thanks for your words and music, beautiful!
