A Sketch A Song


What I've always done that I haven't noticed till now is I do a sketch per song that I'm listening to. These sketches came from the Practical Magic and You've Got Mail soundtracks. They have become my new favorites and I listen to them constantly, great song selections. And I actually love the movement that came out of these sketches!

There are men outside my window . . .


So I wake up to the loud clanking and hammering of the construction workers working on my building. At first it irritated the hell out of me but after getting my cup of tea and setting up shop next to my window I started to listen to their conversations:

~What the hell are you doing man?
~I'm holding the beam
~Not with a weak ass grip like that!
~Will you stop . . . swear it's been complain complain complain all morning
~I don't know whats wrong with me man
~ . . . (Working)
~You're just really bugging me
~. . . (Still working)
~Maybe it's hate the white boy day
~. . . You know my girlfriend says this is dangerous for me (Walking on scaffolding)
~Oh so now we're talking about you!?

It's hilarious what these big burly men talk about while you're trying to wake up.

~Hey Bill . . . BILL!
~Wha?
~How many do we need?
~(muffled by traffic noise)
~3-12's?
~yap yap yap
~6'4's?
~123456
~Are you talking about the scaffolding or the tools man?
~Heh?

I swear these guys need walky talkies or something. . . I think the one called Johnny is the one with the girlfriend, he has a sweet voice and figures his name would be Johnny.

Just another San Francisco city morning

It's Magic


I've been listening to Olivia-Newton John from Xanadu a lot to calm down. This is always one of the images that comes to mind when she's singing "Magic".

Come take my hand
You should know me
I've always been in your mind
You know that I'll be kind
I'll be guiding you

Building your dream
Has to start now
There's no other road to take
You won't make a mistake
I'll be guiding you

You have to believe we are magic
Nothin' can stand in our way
You have to believe we are magic
Don't let your aim ever stray
And if all your hopes survive
Your destiny will arrive
I'll bring all your dreams alive
For you

From where I stand
You are home free
The planets align so rare
There's promise in the air
And I'm guiding you

Through every turn I'll be near you
I'll come anytime you call
I'll catch you when you fall
I'll be guiding you

You have to believe we are magic
Nothin' can stand in our way
You have to believe we are magic
Don't let your aim ever stray
And if all your hopes survive
Your destiny will arrive
I'll bring all your dreams alive
For you
