James Asmo and the world

"Now I'm relieved to hear
That you've been to some far out places
It's hard to carry on
When you feel all alone
Now I've swung back down again
It's worse than it was before
If I hadn't seen such riches
I could live with being poor

Oh sit down
Oh sit down
Oh sit down
Sit down next to me
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down, down
In sympathy

Those who feel the breath of sadness
Sit down next to me
Those who find they're touched by madness
Sit down next to me
Those who find themselves ridiculous
Sit down next to me
In love, in fear, in hate, in tears
In love, in fear, in hate, in tears
In love, in fear, in hate, in tears
In love, in fear, in hate"

Whilst driving (yep drive, see what a good mum I am?) Danz to school today they were playing James on the Local radio and it made me think about Asmo, my mate. I never liked James much originally, guess they weren't 'pretty' enough)
But I do like these lyrics. I smiled a huge smile when they sang these lines.
"If I hadn't seen such riches
I could live with being poor"
Plus I do like the lines I highlighted in bold up there. Kinds Apt seeing today is a psychiatrist day.
But I'm better than last month.
Sit down next to me.
(not you Azhar though)

I expected you to quote Laid if you were gonna quote James.

How fortuitous - my powers of prediction at work again. Tomorrow I predict that they play..... Oh.. Westlife. Keep the radio off tomorrow and play I spy instead.
