Elton John Live!!!

Yesterday, i got a super cool surprise for my birthday. Brandy got me a ticket to see Elton John and took me to the concert. And it was pretty awesome. I was impressed that he sang for 2 and a half hours straight, and he sang virtually every hit song he has ever had, except for 2.. i'm pretty sure. I am truly grateful that I had a chance to see him in concert again as he announce that he is doing no more albums, and implied that his days of concerts are now ending.

#4) Something I want to do

Go to an HBCU football game.

HBCU stands for Historically Black Colleges and Universities. I want to go to a football game and, honestly, see the bands in the stands and at halftime. I dont want to go to one of the "Classics" that you see on tv. I want to go to a random Fall Saturday weekend when there are no TV cameras and I can see what it is truly like. I think that would be immensely fun.

I guess thats why they call it the blues

Don't wish it away
Don't look at it like it's forever
Between you and me I could honestly say
That things can only get better

And while I'm away
Dust out the demons inside
And it won't be long before you and me run
To the place in our hearts where we hide

And I guess that's why they call it the blues
Time on my hands could be time spent with you
Laughing like children, living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that's why they call it the blues

Just stare into space
Picture my face in your hands
Live for each second without hesitation
And never forget I'm your man

Wait on me girl
Cry in the night if it helps
But more than ever I simply love you
More than I love life itself

Music by Elton John and Davey Johnstone Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
