It's a wonderful life
This one's by Black.  I had forgotten about this great song, but it came from the radio while I was driving today.

-Wonderful life-

Here I go out to sea again
The sunshine fills my hair
And dreams hang in the air
Gulls in the sky and in my blue eye
You know it feels unfair
There's magic everywhere
Look at me standing
Here on my own again
Up straight in the sunshine

No need to laugh and cry
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to run and hide
It's a wonderful, wonderful life

The sun's in your eyes, the heat is in your hair
They seem to hate you
because you're there
And I need a friend, oh I need a friend,
to make me happy
Not stand here on my own
Look at me standing
Here on my own again
Up straight in the sunshine

I need a friend, oh I need a friend
To make me happy, not so alone
Look at me here
Here on my own again
Up straight in the sunshine

Simply put: My bro doesn't allow that. And I'm too lazy and have antipathy towards such things, mostly because I fear I get hooked. To this day, those fears have come to reality everytime I have done something like that.

Heh. The guy also had mpeg video for the song. It had music quality at least I couldn't discern from CD quality. 18mb, which wasn't too long with 128kbit/sec. Biggrinbounce

There aren't any others using this line in this building so the whole capacity is ours. I'd remember the maximum for cable was 180kbit/sec.

My 56k modem got 16-18kbit/sec. You really have a crappy line, I see. Biggrin

Colin Vearncombe. He performs with his own name nowadays. Seems to have hell of a discography. In a concert earlier this year, he said there'll be a new album out from him soon.
