Somewhere else
In amongst painful browser-wranging this morning, Emiliana Torrini's Sunnyroad came up on iTunes' shuffle like a musical ray of sunshine. If you haven't heard it, this is a song so blissfully sweet that it makes everything okay with the world. At least for the three minutes and four seconds you're listening to it.
This morning it was followed by Simon and Garfunkel's similarly mellow The Only Living Boy In New York, which I can now report has a slightly disconcerting stereo effect on the vocals when played on headphones.

Beautiful pic, Si. That's the kind of countryside I missed from Japan. Where is it? (We won't believe it's the moon on account of the clouds... though it might pass as Mars?)

Thanks! That pic's from Carine Open Space, I think looking East over the swamp, which was kinda dry at the time.

I went through a big Simon and Garfunkel phase a few years back that I've been revisiting lately. 'So Long, Frank Lloyd Wright' and 'Punky's Dilemma' are particularly cool, I think.
