~Favorite Sun Songs~
*Soundgarden - Black Hole Sun*
In my eyes, indisposed In disguise as no one knows Hides the face, lies the snake The sun in my disgrace Boiling heat, summer stench 'Neath the black the sky looks dead Call my name through the cream And I'll hear you scream again
Chorus: Black hole sun Won't you come And wash away the rain Black hole sun Won't you come Won't you come
Stuttering, cold and damp Steal the warm wind tired friend Times are gone for honest men And sometimes far too long for snakes In my shoes, a walking sleep And my youth I pray to keep Heaven send Hell away No one sings like you anymore
Chorus x 2 Hang my head, drown my fear Till you all just disappear
Repeat chorus til end
Bill Withers - Ain't No Sunshine
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone It's not warm when she's away. Ain't no sunshine when she's gone She's always gone too long Anytime she goes away.
Wonder this time where she's gone Wonder if she's gone to stay Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And this house just ain't no home Anytime she goes away.
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, Hey, I oughtta leave young thing alone But ain't no sunshine when she's gone Ain't no sunshine when she's gone Only darkness every day Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And this house just ain't no home Anytime she goes away
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, Hey, I oughtta leave young thing alone But ain't no sunshine when she's gone Ain't no sunshine when she's gone Only darkness every day Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And this house just ain't no home Anytime she goes away Anytime she goes away Anytime she goes away Anytime she goes away
They Might Be Giants - Why Does the Sun Shine?
The sun is a mass of incandescent gas A gigantic nuclear furnace Where hydrogen is built into helium At a temperature of millions of degrees
Yo ho, it's hot, the sun is not A place where we could live But here on Earth there'd be no life Without the light it gives
We need its light We need its heat We need its energy Without the sun, without a doubt There'd be no you and me
The sun is a mass of incandescent gas A gigantic nuclear furnace Where hydrogen is built into helium At a temperature of millions of degrees
The sun is hot It is so hot that everything on it is a gas: iron, copper, aluminum, and many others. The sun is large If the sun were hollow, a million Earths could fit inside. And yet, the sun is only a middle-sized star. The sun is far away About 93 million miles away, and that's why it looks so small. And even when it's out of sight The sun shines night and day
The sun gives heat The sun gives light The sunlight that we see The sunlight comes from our own sun's Atomic energy
Scientists have found that the sun is a huge atom-smashing machine. The heat and light of the sun come from the nuclear reactions of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and helium.*
The sun is a mass of incandescent gas A gigantic nuclear furnace Where hydrogen is built into helium At a temperature of millions of degrees

The Distance To The SunThere is no peace
Here in my mind
There's no way to see
We're all born blind
To some place some time
When we could feel like
We're joined inside
We can't always
See it with our eyes
But there is a world apart from what we know
There is a place the eyes will never show
We can be as one
And be farther than The Distance to the Sun
To the sun...
The Distance to the Sun
There is no use you'll never win
They'll only kick you back again
Back where you've been
And you're never satisfied
Your wants just change
You've been playing an unwinnable game
Half the time we're gone, we don't know why
Half of us are crying towards the sky
Once we're there we'll wonder why it took so long
Once we're there we'll know what we became

How about a little fun with
77 Sunset Strip? Check out the stars in the intro...it's a long way from the Strip to the Neutral Zone.

At the dawn of the Space Age, Cornell Blakeley, a singer from Detroit, pleaded with "frantic scientists" to stay away from the moon and the stars and "find something else to do."

I agree. I am NOT ready for hot weather. But to go straight from 80 to 35 is hard to adjust to. LOL!
Not to mention the trees and flowers that are gonna be shocked by the cold temps. I’ll bet you guys have things blooming already, too, yes?
