Nice choice RT. The Floyd in their political mode some years ago.

I don't know whether you would know in the US, but the building is Battersea Power Station in London before it was made redundant. Interesting building with a lot of history. https://www.google.fr/webhp?sourceid...ower%20station

I did know that...at one time.
Thanks for refreshing my memory and the link.
I love history and architecture.

Didn't know if I should post this in 'the future' thread but I thought it was fitting for this one. I woke up this morning to the song 'One Headlight' by the Wallflowers. It was running thru my head (just there, no radio - just in my head) and it's fair to say that I haven't heard it in a while. I couldn't sleep so I got up, went out onto the sofa and plunked around on the computer, looked up the lyrics to the song and pondered on life. Got ready for work, went out to the Rover and hopped in. My husband said 'turn on the vehicle and I'll check the tail light'. With the first turn of the key this song started to play from the VERY FIRST note. No commercials, no bars missing, just this song from start to end. Coincidence? It meant something to me...

I give you the Wallflowers:

Thx KD. I was in hospital for six days and off work for a month and 8 days. Im glad to be back to my normal self.... (whatever that means)

Interesting about that song being in your head and then playing on the radio.... Do the lyrics mean anything special to you ? It sounded kinda sad to me

Man.. that sounds horrible. Glad you're doing better Senor. Yeah, I just thought it was strange that the song was in my head in the wee hours of the morning, then I looked the lyrics up, and THEN it played on the radio as soon as I started the Rover up. We were talking about coincidences, remember? Felt like the Universe was trying to tell me something - something that I had to work thru?.. who knows. I just thought it was peculiar.
