More than words

Ok so I'm downloading Extreme - "More Than Words" for my housemate. I say for him, it's more to annoy him. In one way its the greatest love song ever (I swear I'll have it played at my wediing, should such an unlikely event ever occur) and in another way its a complete bag of toss.
I love the idea that you could woo a girl with this track (I've seen it done, so I know it happens/happened). It's so saccharine, its scary! But at the same time that we've all become so cynical that playing a cloyingly sweet love song to someone is no longer enough. The whole dating game must be played, obeying all its arcane and shifting rules. Odd. I yearn for the simple days.

New blog from a friend

Apparantly an "Accident Waiting to Happen". Knowing Mark this will be full of reasoned arguements of a leftish bent. Actually its far more likely it'll be full of a wide range of rants :)
