In my never ending quest to appreciate music written after 1978 -- to remain cutting edge -- I have just discovered a song that is now more than a year old, possibly even older than that. But, I just heard it for the first time driving home from the post office in the pouring rain. And it moved me. I mean really moved me. I couldn't stop moving. Hips going this way and that, shoulders shimmying, fingers clicking, I wanted to roll down the window and sing it to the heavens...
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see
the less I know
But I know one thing
That I love you
Happy Friday, everyone!
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love that song, BG. And I love you too!

I'm as happy as I was on Friday evening.
Because we get Columbus Day off!
HOORRAYYY!

When this first came out it was all I wanted to hear for about two weeks. It is SO MUCH FUN! And the moment at the end of the breakdown (2:40), just before the band kicks back in, when that woman sighs "...awww..." is so fucking heartwarming it makes me believe in love again. Love on the cobblestone streets of a Brazilian village featuring nubile young things in colorful skirts. The more I see the less I know, indeed.

It is SO MUCH FUN! I don't understand, with how much channel surfing I do, how I missed this song for so long.
All my other readers must be total haters! I can't believe no one else is getting into this heartfelt love-fest!
Haters!

BG- does your TypePad no longer take links?
Or maybe I'm spazzing. Let me try again. The above comment should have said...
Ahem
