About two months ago...

Sometime in late 2014, on a Saturday morning, I found myself walking around the house quietly singing a song to myself. I didn't think much of it until my wife turned to me and said "You know, it's been a real adventure the past 15 years to discover what song you're going to sing to yourself every morning."

I protested that it didn't happen nearly that often, but she assured me that most mornings, I had some tune or another stuck in my head, and they rarely repeated.

So, I decided to do a daily blog post about the song I have in my head each day, just to see where it leads.

It's been seven hours and fifteen days...

since you took your love away...

Sinéad O'Connor was pretty weird, but nowhere near as strange as Prince (AKA Jamie Starr AKA Christopher AKA Alexander Nevermind AKA The Purple One AKA Joey Coco AKA AKA The artist formerly known as Prince), who originally penned this one.

Pretty weird, both of them - but this song is so evocative of a pretty formative time in my life, and I love the raw, acoustic sound of it.

Listen to it on on Spotify.

Watch it on YouTube:
