sweetness


I was driving today and happened to have Paul Kelly on the stezza. Portable Aussieness and home-ness such as tunes and the like are so important when you live far away. And, for a change I wasnt using music as a means to block out schreeching (KISS works best) or helping to prevent it, I was actually listening to it. This song, Deeper Water, these days brings a lump to my throat. What a beautiful song, it is so much more meaning ful now I have my own son. I think PK is one of the most clever and sweet and simple yet profound storytellers of my time.
