I saw him last Saturday night in Chicago. Before the song he spoke of a little girl (when they were eight) back in Scotland that used to knock him down and hold him to the ground. He said he loved that girl. Then he went into the song. It was beautiful. I will be posting some footage of the Chicago concert soon.

I think I do. I have a few that I haven't looked at yet because they are over 100MB and need to be cut down. I will post it if I have it! All of the ones I post will be titled like this one.

[nodbot]

Yes, I have others and will be putting them up soon.(Battery died so I missed a few) I was tempted to leave work on Friday and drive up to Minn/St.Paul to see the show. Glad you liked it.

Really good.

Does anyone believe in soul mates? He and Maggie seem be meant for each other. I don't believe in that, in soul mates, but if I had one, this is how I would want us to work. Living with only memories of the person.

If the relationship didn't work out, it would be devastating. But if I could look back with nothing but happy memories of a potentially "perfect" love, it would almost measure up.

Great artist, no? Some of the best lyrics I've seen.

wonderful...

Dude, we must have sat less than a dozen seats apart - we were dead center front row. I miss him at the Mirimar - he's at Turner Hall since last year. See you at the show Thursday!

This is about a woman he grew up with who commited suicide. It didn't work out because she was suffering from a disorder.

I usually don't write on the internet, but your writing touched something in me.

This is a song that really moves me, in a way that is very romantic/nostalgic/sad. But those feelings are also absurd in the same time. What are memories but a bunch of images and subjective interpretations of a reality that no longer exists? Is it not better to live the moment? To try making the most out of the relationship and if it fails, to accept it and be at peace?

Maybe that's even better than memories...
