Its_for_you

Very astute of the lovely Kimberly!  The lyric comes from “South Central Rain” by R.E.M, from the 1985 album Reckoning, which was a fixture on my stereo in college.  (It’s the song that starts “Did you never call, I waited for your call...") And yes, this is another picture from Eureka Springs.  It’s actually a general store, or was.  The building was built in 1880 and sits at the top of Singleton Street.  Every time I walked by it I thought “what a great space for a bakery!” but alas, even though it is no longer a store, somebody has plans for it, because it is covered with “Private Property” signs.  Dagnabbit.

Oh, I would have loved to have heard that Cocteau Twins contest.  When I upgraded my copy of Treasure from vinyl to CD, I had high hopes of finally deciphering, if not all the lyrics, at least *something*.  I have since decided that Elisabeth sings in a language that only she speaks.  Which, is fine, really, because the music is so pretty, and so is she.

As far as old R.E.M. goes, if I could decipher one line per song, that was a pretty good day for me.  I still think that the last line of each verse of “Sitting Still” is “We will gather, throw up beer.”

Collena’s right.  The picture is a little over from 34.  About 34.5 in fact.  Which we all know is 1/2 of 69.  (Sheesh.) Kids nowadays.  Why do we have to spell everything out for them.

Bakerina must be feelin’ lonely.  Lloyd, get to work.
