As a penny with a hole in it...

I barely ever cry. And the only tears I shed are only related to negative feelings: pain, disappointment or despair. 

Too much happiness, joy, beauty and/or beautiful emotions usually don't make me cry, when am happy, I smile and laugh and jump all over the place and act a fool. As simple as that.
However, after not hearing this song for years, I shamelessly downloaded it (i don't normally do that but i bought the CD on amazon and it was never delivered) and when I heard the first notes I found myself crying. 

It really is one of my all time favorite tracks. Written by the genius Van Hunt. Who else?

Dionne Farris' voice is so serene, it always makes me shiver.
Here's to you peoples, although I'm sure you all know and love it already.

CONCERT




Anthony Joseph and Saul Williams are coming to Paris in February. Lucky us!
I had never heard of Anthony Joseph until last week. I checked his myspace (www.myspace.com/adjoseph), and this trini/british brother and the Spasm Band are beautiful all around! 


Saul Williams or Niggy Tardust. The effect of his poetry is Physical. Hypnotic.
I already told you that I love WORDS.
I'll be damned if I miss out. If YOU do, then, as we say in Swahili: KAZI YAKO (your problem!)!

That's Black avant-garde for you. (Keziah Jones where you at?)
