Wednesday!

I admit, I thought that the lyrics were:
So those are my dreams
And these are my eyes
Stand tall like a man
Get thrown like a horse
And I liked those lyrics a lot more.
But this is one of those songs that has been stuck in my head non-stop for the last month for some reason. Probably because I didn’t understand the lyrics and now that I know the real ones I’ll finally get this one out of my system.
One of the things that strikes me most about this song (which I also loved at the time) was the somewhat cruddy timing. If Grunge hadn’t happened when it did… ah, woulda coulda shoulda. Elemental was a great album that was well-received and did fairly well on the charts, all things considered.
But, man… it could have been freakin’ huge.
So… what are you listening to?

It sounds like you should play this. Partially because, even if you didn’t finish it,you got more out of the first one than I did and partially because the whole “mechanical apartheid” angle sounds like it has a lot of meat for a social column.Report
I’ve told Maribou that I would like this game for my upcoming birthday and it looks like it’s going to happen.
I absolutely *ADORED* the first one… until that first boss fight.
I talked to brother Ethan Gatch the other day and asked about whether they fixed the boss fights. He said:
So fingers are crossed.Report
Continuing conversation:
@ maribou :
The Present
I do not despise your weakness, My child. Actually, it draws Me closer to you, because weakness stirs up My compassion — My yearning to help. Accept yourself in your weariness, knowing that I understand how difficult your journey has been.
Do not compare yourself with others, who seem to skip along their life-paths with ease. Their journeys have been different from yours, and I have gifted them with abundant energy. I have gifted you with fragility, providing opportunities for your spirit to blossom in My Presence. Accept this gift as a sacred treasure: delicate, yet glowing with brilliant Light. Rather than struggling to disguise or deny your weakness, allow Me to bless you richly through it.Report
