Tunes

While on music, there are some songs I cant get enough of:

Losing My Religion - REM
She keeps the home fires burning - Ronnie Milsap - thanks RR for introducing me to this great voice
Broken Arrow - Rod Stewart
500 Miles - Hooters
Turn That Radio On - Ronnie again
Mrs Robinson - Simon & Garfunkel

To name a few, of course there are a lot more, but these are the first that comes to mind.

Solo humming

Its fascinating with the mind, isnt it? Suddenly out of the blue I am humming Sprinsgsteen's Dancing in the Dark. It just came to my mind suddenly, no clue when, and since then i have been humming portions of the song. A song, I havent heard in ages. What was the trigger then for it to come to me.

Even as I write, I am listening to it. Its an awesome number, a very moodie solo, but I am just amazed at how this particular song came into my mind all of a sudden, beats me.

Done and dusted

I am kinda of confused where this blog should be posted, its either here or on my tennis space.
I decide to post it here with a promise that there would be no tennis jargons or dissection of the game. That comes later on my other page.

Its been a week now that Federer lost the 5 setter at Wimbledon, my mind has been wallowing in a labyrinth of emotions ever since. On the one hand i am now pretty sure that maestro is done with, but on the other hand, I keep my hopes alive with the way he played the French. On the one hand, I think he is done since he lost after having a 2 sets lead and that has never happened, on the other I think he still has a slam or two considering the inspired tennis he played to beat Djokovic at the French.

Its a sinking feeling, for I havent seen a better player than Federer in all the years I have been following the game. He is definitely the most talented to have played the game. An epitaph will follow when Federer hangs up his raquet. Federer not the favourite or Federer not in the main draw is something that myself and all Fed fans should start getting used to and fast...i think we are almost there and nothing could be worse than that.
