A #1 song here in the States that was too quickly forgotten:
Cutting Crew (I Just)Died In Your Arms Tonight
_________________________ "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation." Henry David Thoreau
His disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?" Jesus answered, "Neither he nor his parents sinned; it is so that the works of God might be made visible through him. " John 9:2-3
Mahatma Ghandi, though a devout Hindu, was widely known to admire Jesus; Ghandi often quoted from the Sermon on the Mount, in fact. Once when the missionary E. Stanley Jones met with Ghandi he asked him, "Mr. Ghandi, though you quote the words of Christ often, why is that you appear to so adamantly reject becoming his follower?" Ghandi replied, "Oh, I don't reject your Christ. I love your Christ. It's just that so many of you Christians are so unlike your Christ."

An interesting song, if you look at it through transition colored glasses, especially for one that sounds so happy:
The Mighty Mighty Bosstones The Impression That I Get Have you ever been close to tragedy Or been close to folks who have? Have you ever felt a pain so powerful So heavy you collapse?
No? Well... I never had to knock on wood But I know someone who has Which makes me wonder if I could It makes me wonder if I never had to knock on wood And I'm glad I haven't yet Because I'm sure it isn't good That's the impression that I get.
Have you ever had the odds stacked up so high You need a strength most don't possess? Or has it ever come down to do or die You've got to rise above the rest?
No? Well... I never had to knock on wood But I know someone who has Which makes me wonder if I could It makes me wonder if I never had to knock on wood And I'm glad I haven't yet Because I'm sure it isn't good That's the impression that I get.
I'm not a coward, I've just never been tested I'd like to think that if I was, I would pass Look at the tested and think there but for the grace go on I might be a coward, I'm afraid of what I might find out.
I've never had to knock on wood But I know someone who has Which makes me wonder if I could It makes me wonder if I've never had to knock on wood And I'm glad i haven't yet Because I'm sure it isn't good That's the impression that I get.
Never had to, I better knock on wood... Cause I know someone who has Which makes wonder if I could It makes me wonder if I
Never had to, I better knock on wood... Cause I'm sure it isn't good Am I'm glad I havn't yet...
That's the Impression that I get.
