November 1 was the Celtic New Year, and the night before marked the passing of summer and the onset of winter, when the veil between the worlds of the living and the dead was at its thinnest.
Magic Time is a great CD. Morrison veers away from the bluesy, folksy, American-y threads he chased in earlier CDs, and returned to what he did best at that point in his life and age: perform authentic music of his own origin.
If I don't see you through the week
See you through the window
See you next time that we're talking on the telephone
And don't see you in that Indian summer
Then I want to see you further on up the road
See you through the window
See you next time that we're talking on the telephone
And don't see you in that Indian summer
Then I want to see you further on up the road
I said, Oh won't you come back?
I have to see you, my dear
Won't you come back in the Celtic New Year?
In the Celtic New Year
I have to see you, my dear
Won't you come back in the Celtic New Year?
In the Celtic New Year
If I don't see you when I'm going down Louisiana
If I don't see you when I'm down on Bourbon Street
If you don't see me when I'm singing, Jack of diamonds
If you don't see me when I'm on my lucky streak
If I don't see you when I'm down on Bourbon Street
If you don't see me when I'm singing, Jack of diamonds
If you don't see me when I'm on my lucky streak
Whoa, I want you, want you to come on back
I've made it very clear
I want you to come back home in the Celtic New Year
Celtic New Year
If I don't see you when the bonfires are burning, burning
If I don't see you when we're singing, The Gloriana tune
If I've got to see you when it's raining deep inside the forest
I got to see you at the waning of the moon
If I don't see you when we're singing, The Gloriana tune
If I've got to see you when it's raining deep inside the forest
I got to see you at the waning of the moon
Said, Oh, won't you come on back?
Want you to be of good cheer
Come back home on the Celtic New Year
Want you to be of good cheer
Come back home on the Celtic New Year
Celtic New Year
Celtic New Year
Celtic New Year
Celtic New Year
Celtic New Year
Come on home, come on home
Come on home, come on home
In the Celtic New Year
In the Celtic New Year
Come on home, come on home
In the Celtic New Year
In the Celtic New Year
Come on home, come on home
Come on home, come on home
In the Celtic New Year
Come on home, come on home
In the Celtic New Year
Blessings of the day to you!

Good morning.
Is there anything sadder than a professionally hip guy doing his hip schtick with a double chin?
Is this an open thread? I hope so.
I'm trying to remember the name of a game I had on my old phone. It had little beads that drop down in stacks, and if you got three or more together, you eliminated them. When you got other combos, you got explosions that scored more points. You tried to keep this going as long as possible.
Sound familiar?
I think it was called Rosary Crush.
Haha...no.
Anyone else?
