~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

Good morning, Pro ((HUGS))
Your weather sounds about the same as most of the country...and it gives me a glimpse of what it’ll be like in about a week.
My yard needs work but my back has been hurting. Wonder if I can convince Mr. Beachy to hire a young guy to do it for us. (rolling eyes). We’re both so busy it’s just another chore on top of it all. Camel...back...
This weekend I’m finishing the final prep on another book to submit to editor. Then start a re-write on Book 2.
Young son (who’s been out of work for a couple years other than piece meal) has an interview today. Fingers crossed it works out.
Other than that...normal Friday.
Have a grandocious weekend.

Very nice topic!
Although the sun is mentioned only once, it’s Van the Man singing it so it can’t be wrong.
Into the Mystic by Van Morrison
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVAnlke_xUY
We were born before the wind
Also younger than the sun
Ere the bonnie boat was one as we sailed into the mystic
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic
And when that fog horn blows I will be coming home
And when the fog horn blows I want to hear it
I don’t have to fear it
And I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And magnificently we will fold into the mystic
When that fog horn blows you know I will be coming home
And when that fog horn whistle blows I got to hear it
I don’t have to fear it
And I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And together we will fold into the mystic
Come on girl...
Have a great weekend!
