Wow, K, how amazing to see this here! I'm a complete sucker for Strauss's lieder, and this is a pretty nice performance of an amazing song.

I wonder if you know "Morgen!"? YouTube is full of not very good recordings of it, but this is, I'm pretty sure, Schwarzkopf, and thus about as good as it gets.

's got me all teary now :)

So, uh, sorry I still haven't finished the video, I really will do that this weekend, it's been insane here. And, well, I hope you're doing OK, bud. Read at Dennis's about your recent tribulations, chemicalwise and everythingwise. Hope you're hanging in there.

In ten days' time I'll be in Edinburgh. Probably geographically closer than we've been in a while. 400 miles? It's nothing. Come and play!

Love you so much it makes Strauss sound like Mike & the Mechanics.

yr pal, Ch.xx

hi chris! i've missed you, but i'm back now.

yeah this is a nice version. i really dislike all the versions that are quite rushed, instead of holding back, like this. i don't know if you get what i mean. i've heard morgen, but i'm gonna listen to it a lot more now, thanks for the link.

man i wish i could come to edinburgh! i like it there, i've only been once, and i didn't even get to do the ghost tour of the castle or wherever it was. i have to get my head sorted better before i can, though, but i'm coming to london once it's done, that's a threat.

i can't wait to see the video. i love you as much as spice girls love platform shoes.
