Comment:

set the pace as the pavement makes scratches on your shoes
the cellophane blues that bleats, bangs in your head
slicing through the symphony blanking everything out
after all, the syncopation clicks and drags
marking single fretted dirges onto your heart
like the burning of autumn leaves

This is fascinating. Congratulations on a well-deserved mix of the week. That Ronettes track is total nostalgia of evenings being driven to hockey games 'cause the only tape my mum was interested in listening to at the time was the 'Dirty Dancing' OST. Out.
