New Midi...
Heheh… my 7th Midi ^^ all right, so, this new Midi is by yet another band from the 80’s called The Cure. This song was really popular, and you can still hear it today on the radio… they play it at least once amongst the “80’s Weekend” specials on some radio stations. The cure has been considered more of an alternative-punk group, but at times, their songs seem more like pop, having that catchy beat like, Tears for Fears, and Erasure. The Cure’s songs are still used to make commercials too. Like those Verizon Picture phones. The song, “Pictures of You” plays during one of the commercials. Not only that, but The Cure still play to this day, as well as Depeche mode, Psychedelic Furs, The Rolling Stones, which is the only band that actually dies before your eyes, lol. Not to be offensive or anything, but the Rolling Stones have to be one of the oldest bands still playing. They’ve been around since the 60’s or 50’s I believe… but still, you have to give them credit… they may be old, but they can still play their instruments as though they’ve never aged a day after the first years they started. Not only that, but a lot of bands are coming back, and playing the oldies; like: Duran Duran, those mentioned before (Cure, Depeche, ect.), and there’s also a show on VH1 called Bands Reunited. Where they hint members of old 80’s bands down, and bring them together for one last performance. They’ve gotten bands like, A Flock of Seagulls, Dramarama, in hopes that they will continue playing in concerts… as a matter of fact, I think the Cure’s next concert is a week from now… or it could be this week… not sure. The Cure is famous all around, and if you were to ask anyone who’s a big fan of the 80’s, they’d know whom the Cure was if you asked. Plus, Morrisey is coming back. (Morrisey was also the main singer for The Smiths before Morrisey… just to clear that up) Morrisey is one of the biggest bands. Any car you see with a “Morrisey” sticker on it, I almost guarantee you it’s a woman driving it. All women love Morrisey… women found his voice really soothing, and romantic. And to this day, the main singer has thousands of millions of women swooning over him. But anyway, “Just Like Heaven” by the Cure is my new Midi of the week.

The Cure-Just Like Heaven

"Show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream" she said
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
And threw her arms around my neck
"Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you"

Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
"Why are you so far away?" she said
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you"

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream

Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven

All right. So, time for my main post of the day (Must start writing more during week >_<). Yesterday, my brother Cameron got landed in the hospital, after complaining about severe stomach pains. When we got there, we waited a bit in the Waiting room… about 20 minutes before he collapsed, and fainted. It appeared that his Appendix burst, and that it had ruptured right then and there. So, they had the medics carry him off on a stretcher in to the emergency room. Gavin told me he was lucky, because when that happens, it spreads something poisonous… at least… I think that’s what he said. I really couldn’t tell, because it was about 1 am, I was half asleep, and we had just gotten back from my aunt’s, straight to the hospital (That hospital is a 24-hour one. They do check-ups, and operations through the night…) And I was woken up around 7 am to go with them to my aunt’s. So far yesterday, I only slept 3 hours. But today, I slept a bit longer. We stayed with Cameron all night the other day, and so, Gavin, Mike, and me fell asleep on the floor against a wall, waiting for the operation to be over. It was a success, but Cameron was still asleep, so we waited about 2 hours before we could actually talk to him. When he finally did awake though, the first thing he said was, “I’m gonna barf…” lol. The affects of the operation left Cameron a bit dizzy, so every time he stood, he’d fall over, or vomit. Not only that, but his stomach gets this sharp pain when standing or sitting up. They made a hole in his belly button, to get to his appendix, so now there’s this stitched up hole, heh. Not only that, but he seems extremely calm, and tired all the time… the medicine he takes to take away the pain causes him to sleep, so I’ve been missing him a lot. It’s not the same when he’s not around… and the doctors say he’ll be released by Wednesday or Thursday. That is if he gets better. If not, they’ll keep him till Saturday. So, we’re really hoping he’ll get better. It’s not fun without him here. So, we went to visit him today, and the doctor said Cameron is showing signs of stomach flu, and he thinks this could make Cameron worse than he already is. So they’re most likely gonna have to keep him for another week. But, we can visit all we want, and since the room is one of those private ones, where he doesn’t have to share with a roommate, we can stay over to make sure he’s okay. So for now, we’re just waiting to see what happens, and hope that he’s okay.
