some sycophantic stuff

there's a blog that i check out on a daily basis
called the time being
the author being one steven kilbey
lead singer composer bass-player
for the band i admire above all others
the church
hooked into them in the 80's
and still addicted
sad but true
believe it or not
then there was 1 other band
that i thought were as good
a 4 piece from ireland
that are now the biggest thing
since mashed potatoes
churning out the hits in stadiums
while the other lot
just keep producing great music
at last count 19 studio albums
each one as good as the other
but the point of this little meander
the time being is a great read of a blog
today sk wrote a thesis type piece
on the leonard cohen song suzanne
it's a great read
i thought about copying it verbatim here
but i'm not one for ripping
the creative output of any musician
especially one i admire
so here's the link
the time being
