…Instead a picture.

I always wondered what the birds wanted with the bees.

Also four videos on the video page. The goats. Just because I’m happy to have my old new old new camera back (again) again. They probably won’t make you as happy as they make me, but any chance to spread happiness should be seized. Even if it is only theoretical.

I just finished watching Tina Dickow live on the telly. She’s part of a big benefit show tonight. Rock’n’Royal. I’m not much for royalty. But I am much for Tina. She performed with Steffen Brandt. I absolutely love their version of Halleluja. You wouldn’t think it would be a good idea to make Danish translations of Leonard Cohen songs, but that one really is wonderfully splendid.

It is odd though. Steffen Brandt is the leadsinger of a band called TV2. A band that my mother loves. So I have grown up with him singing sometimes in the background, as a part of the paternal music. You know, that music that you eventually must feel alienated from. You must rebel with your own music, louder harder faster.

And then you have Tina, who will always be caught somewhere in the middle, between the girl I knew at school and the superstar musician. All in all it melds together in a strange blend of past, present and future. I feel like a cartoon character, rubbing my eyes and going “whaaaa?!”. Like Moe, you know. It doesn’t make sense, but it’s beautiful.

And I always did like TV2 actually. Despite the paternal connection. I always liked their music. And their lyrics. They’re funny and witty and somehow profound.

Så kys det nu, det satans liv.

I actually love his lyrics. And the music is strangely compelling for an “old” Danish band. I can’t think of any other Danish band from before my late-teens that I like so much.

Well, apart from Cut’n’Move of course. Mwhaha.

I slept a lot today. It’s strange, the more I sleep the sleepier I seem to get. Someone explain to me why that is?

Finally, let me advertise the wildcam. As a kid I would read one book after another about nature and animals and so on. Here they are, coming alive. It’s like another planet. If I had a laptop then I’d leave the cam running and fall asleep to the sounds of the Botswana night.

That’s all for today. Surgery story tomorrow, most likely. Along with stargazing. I think. I am not cryptic, I just like to wear my pants on my head.
