"suddenly i see"/"sunday shining" - kt tunstall/finlay quaye

"she makes me feel like i could be a tower, a big strong tower yeah"
"i'm a hero, like robert de niro"


sometimes a couple of bits of songs remind you of each other so much that hearing one in your head makes you think of the other which you then hear in your head which makes you think of the first one again. round and round. this is the power of the double earworm.


it also brought back a strong memory of drinking vodbenas (a shot of vodka with a shot of neat squash as a chaser) with crissie in bar-boon. im not even sure if thats something that literally happened or a fictional composite of memories. an awful lot of drinking went on at that bar and in slightly hazy retrospect the sessions tend to blend a little. i knew crissie well enough to know she was awesome, but i wish i knew her well enough to say i knew her. i do know she is nothing like kt tunstall or robert de niro though - so maybe im associating with the strength of her figurative tower.



though i have always suspected that that line of lyric has a phallic undertone
