I had a beautiful dream upon waking this morning, hugging Kurt Cobain.  Haven't listened to Nirvana in ages, and with fresh ears it's still so amazing, hasn't aged!
And struck by what amazing art this is...

Where the traffic is thin..."

Life is only a dream and we are the imagination of ourselves

A few weeks ago I visited on old mate (he moved away from this town, now he's in a wheelchair in a home w/ "assisted living"), he had a cd on with old hits from the sixties, this song was on it and it now reminds me of that day:

That's one of those songs that you always hear in the background growing up, never really know what it is, who it is but oddly, always know the words. I always like that you crystallise songs to moments Ulrich, I do it too. Hope your friend is doing ok :)

My friend is alright at the moment - he suffered from diabetes, but I'm glad his eyesight got better (when I visited in spring, he could hardly see)! He just wrote me a letter. Will visit him again soon, maybe another song will come up. ;)

Never knew much about Jeff Beck, but this song might've fit into the "best guitar solo" topic as well.

People talking about dreams in the other thread just reminded me of this 80's song by German synth pop band Axodry:

I think all of us feel identified with this song at some point in our lives... Love how Freddie say good bye at the end and the melancholic bass line...
