Psychic!
I bought myself a fabulous CD a while ago! And the more I listen to it the more amazing it gets!

There are SUBLIMINAL MESSAGES!!!!!

It's like some kind of psychic CD.

For example, a couple of weeks ago a friend and I we both having a pretty stressy time. We decided that the best course of action would be to escape from the little town where we live and go and get lost in the big city! It had been raining for days and the weather was pretty grim when we threw our stuff in my car and set off along the coast road on our bid for freedom!

As we tootled along in my little car we flicked on the cd player and were both humming along.

Suddenly we came round a bend in the road and we were staring at one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen! The clouds over the sea had broken a little and the sunlight was pouring through, the shafts of light were streaming through onto the almost flat sea and reflecting back onto the low, grey cloud. It was almost biblical!

Given the fact that we were both in pretty rotten moods at this point we couldn't help but laugh as both of us went "WOW!" at exactly the same time and the psychic CD picked that moment to blast out the chorus of "Itchycoo Park" by Small Faces.

Small Faces
<center>Itchycoo Park

Over bridge of sighs
To rest my eyes in shades of green
Under dreamin' spires
To Itchycoo Park, that's where I've been

What did you do there?
I got high
What did you feel there?
Well I cried
But why the tears there?
I'll tell you why
It's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful


I feel inclined to blow my mind
Get hung up feed the ducks with a bun
They all come out to groove about
Be niceand have fun in the sun

Tell you what I'll do (what will you do?)
I'd like to go there now with you
You can miss out school (won't that be cool)
Why go to learn the words of fools?
What will we do there?
We'll get high
What will we touch there?
We'll touch the sky
But why the tears then?
I'll tell you why

It's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful

I feel inclined to blow my mind
Get hung up feed the ducks with a bun
They all come out to groove about
Be nice and have fun in the sun

It's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful
Ha! It's all too beautiful

The weekend went really well after that, total randomness and much chilling out. Neither of us really wanted to come home.

On the way back we took the same road, it was late and getting dark and although we'd had great weather all weekend as we neared home it started to piddle down again, our good moods began to fade. As we drove along pretty much in silence we came to the place where we'd seen the sunshine on our way out, the CD kicked in.....

The Animals
<center>We've Gotta Get Out Of This Place

In this dirty old part of the city where the sun refuse to shine
People tell me there ain't no use in trying
Now, my girl, you're so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true,
You'll be dead before your time is due, (I know)

Watch my daddy in bed and dying
Watch his hair been turning grey
He's been working and slaving his life away, (Oh yes I know)

He's been working so hard
I've been working too baby, (every night and day)

We've gotta get out of this place
if it's the last thing we ever do
We've gotta get out of this place
Girl there's a better life for me and you

Now my girl you're so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is due, (I know it)

Watch my daddy in bed and dying
Watch his hair been turning grey
He's been working and slaving his life away (I know)

He's been working so hard
I've been working too baby,

We've gotta get out of this place
if it's the last thing we ever do
We've gotta get out of this place
Girl there's a better life for me and you

Somewhere baby
Somehow I know it baby

We've gotta get out of this place
if it's the last thing we ever do
We've gotta get out of this place
Girl there's a better life for me and you


Believe me baby
I know it baby
You know it too</center>

Well, we looked at each other and couldn't help but burst out laughing again! The urge to turn the car round and just get the hell out of there was almost too much!

Since then I've listened to that CD every time I've been out in the car and without fail every time it has managed to provide the perfect track for my mood!

Woke up in the back of the car after a party... "Good Morning Starshine"
Sat in my car feeling a bit tearful... "Don't Let The Sun Catch You Crying"
Solo escape from Aberystwyth... "On The Road Again"
Contemplating the pro's and con's of a potential new boyfriend... "Don't Throw Your Love Away"
Dumping the same potential boyfriend... "You're No Good"
On my way to visit an old friend... "59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin' Groovy)"


And the list goes on!

Perhaps I should wonder how a compliation CD of groovey sounds from the 60's can play just the right track for the situation almost evey time? Perhaps my guardian Angel is some long dead rocker!
