On Tuesday night, I watch a television program called Wild Horses. It is filmed in and around Calgary, Alberta. It is a good show, I enjoy it. I also enjoy the music that is on the show. The theme song to the show is a damn good song. It is titled BIG BLACK HORSE AND THE CHERRY TREE by K. T. Tunstall. (see http://www.kttunstall.com/music/) from the cd Eye To The Telescope
Big Black Horse And The Cherry Tree
My heart knows me better than I know myself
So I'm gonna let it do all the talking
I came across a place in the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse and a cherry tree
I felt a little fear upon my back
I said don't look back just keep on walking
But the big black horse said look this way
He said, 'hey lady will you marry me?'
But I said, no no
You're not the one for me
My heart hit a problem in the early hours
So I stopped it dead for a beat or two
But I cut some cord and I shouldn't have done it
And it won't forgive me after all these years
So I sent to a place in the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse and a cherry tree
But it won't come back coz it's oh so happy
And now I've got a hole for the world to see
It said no no
You're not the one for me
Big black horse and a cherry tree
I can't quite get there coz my hearts' forsaken me

My husband has made excellent progress in the last 24 hours. He was able to get up and walk 3 times, eat some ice chunks, and have a bath. ...
I was reading this and thinking - I know this song - I really like it...when I realized that there actually is a 'Redrocks Counter' in your upper left corner here! I didn't know you were literally doing the countdown for us! Does that ever make me smile - 79 days, 8 hours, and 36 minutes from now - we'll be in our seats....or out of them applauding! Thanks Bev - this is too good - I love it!
ReplyDeleteI sort of did it backwards...however, the Countdown post is below the song. I get such a kick out of it! I look at the days counting down and think skunkeye and cc - Redrocks - Big Wow! Big Prine Wow!
