… no wonder it’s raining!

(edit) RIP

Very sunny in Castle Douglas today

no wonder it’s raining!

It’s just a temporary thing

Profound

Who?
Why?
Most of them were bloody awful.

I love clueless posts, me

This post is not clueless ,it is about only playing Lou Reed songs

Is that like a 5-day-Anniversary-since-his-death-was-announced-on-STW thing then?

Thats the thread.
The ‘Post’ I was referring to was the one immediately above mine.

There’s already a thread on that topic.

Ok, I’ll be the first to recommend “it’s (not) such a perfect day”

Sick Boy: It’s certainly a phenomenon in all walks of life.

Mark “Rent-boy” Renton: What do you mean?

Sick Boy: Well, at one time, you’ve got it, and then you lose it, and it’s gone forever. All walks of life: George Best, for example. Had it, lost it. Or David Bowie, or Lou Reed…

Mark “Rent-boy” Renton: Lou Reed? Some of his solo stuff’s not bad.

Sick Boy: No, it’s not bad, but it’s not great either. And in your heart you kind of know that although it sounds all right, it’s actually just shite

You know you read all this stuff about what a big druggie he was in the papers and you take it with a pinch of salt, but then re-listening to his solo stuff and with the Velvet Underground it’s surprising how many of the track were actually about drugs, it appears it was his muse!

I think this is the most poignant tribute so far (in the Reading Post)

😆 that’s bloody funny that.

To our neighbors:

What a beautiful fall! Everything shimmering and golden and all that incredible soft light. Water surrounding us.

Lou and I have spent a lot of time here in the past few years, and even though we’re city people this is our spiritual home.

Last week I promised Lou to get him out of the hospital and come home to Springs. And we made it!

Lou was a tai chi master and spent his last days here being happy and dazzled by the beauty and power and softness of nature. He died on Sunday morning looking at the trees and doing the famous 21 form of tai chi with just his musician hands moving through the air.

Lou was a prince and a fighter and I know his songs of the pain and beauty in the world will fill many people with the incredible joy he felt for life. Long live the beauty that comes down and through and onto all of us.
