Just this great song and some links. Not a lot of content, but a reminder that there are many great artists that deserve greater exploration. Nerina Pallot is one of them. I suspect that in the near future I will have obtained all of her albums.
Meanwhile, scroll down for my favorite of her songs (so far), some pictures and some links.
Happy Monday.

"GEEK LOVE"
In the race to get out of this place,
I am checking my face in the back of a spoon,
You're accusing, you say I'm not here, but I'm here, yes I'm here, yes,
I'm not on the moon,
But I'm leaving so soon,
So don't presume to know shit about me,
'Cause I don't know myself from one day to the next,
And I don't pose perplexities purposely,
This isn't a game, this isn't a test.
I am checking my face in the back of a spoon,
You're accusing, you say I'm not here, but I'm here, yes I'm here, yes,
I'm not on the moon,
But I'm leaving so soon,
So don't presume to know shit about me,
'Cause I don't know myself from one day to the next,
And I don't pose perplexities purposely,
This isn't a game, this isn't a test.
So hey, you, could you give it a rest?
Just take me home and get me undressed,
Put on a fire and make it enough,
Oh, we're geeks, but we know this is love.
Just take me home and get me undressed,
Put on a fire and make it enough,
Oh, we're geeks, but we know this is love.
Nine am to the beat of a drum,
As we drive through the canyon,
I'm feeling the hum of the engine,
My head and my heart are a-swim-will your cat be ok?
Your wife was she in?
Your wife, is she in???
'Cause I don't presume to know shit about you,
When you won't really tell me until I beg you to,
But I know that perplexity's a wonderful thing,
It's a sudden found joy, the strangeness it brings...
As we drive through the canyon,

Oh, we're geeks, but we know this is love.
Just take me home and get me undressed,
Put on a fire and make it enough,
Oh, we're geeks, but we know this is love.
I like that we argue,
But not everyday,
Your scent in a room,
The way that you say 'color' not 'colour'.
But not everyday,
Your scent in a room,
The way that you say 'color' not 'colour'.
What colour today?
It's grey, grey, it's grey.
It's grey, grey, it's grey.
So hey, you, could you give it a rest?
Just take me home and get me undressed,
Put on a fire and make it enough,
Oh, we're geeks, but we know this is love.
Just take me home and get me undressed,
Put on a fire and make it enough,
Oh, we're geeks, but we know this is love.

- New note - On 1807.06, I ceased daily transmission of my Hey Mom feature after three years of daily conversations. I plan to continue Hey Mom posts at least twice per week but will continue to post the days since ("Days Ago") count on my blog each day. The blog entry numbering in the title has changed to reflect total Sense of Doubt posts since I began the blog on 0705.04, which include Hey Mom posts, Daily Bowie posts, and Sense of Doubt posts. Hey Mom posts will still be numbered sequentially. New Hey Mom posts will use the same format as all the other Hey Mom posts; all other posts will feature this format seen here.
