I like the vina better than the sitar. The sitar is more transcendent, which is great, but the vina is a more āgroundedā sound, so I think it makes for better dance music.
Love me some Doobie Brothers, have anotherā¦

Van Morrisonās Into The Mystic is a beautiful song that a lot of artists have paid tribute to. Hereās my 3 fav versions:

For some reason this song was in my head all day. One of the most underrated Stones songs. Adding the lyrics because they are relevant today. We all are being watched.
Facebook knows more about you than you do because computers never forget.

Fingerprint file, you get me down
You keep me running
Know my way around
Yes, you do, child
Fingerprint file, you bring me down
Keep me running
You keep me on the ground
Know my moves
Way ahead of time
Listening to me
On your satellite
Feeling followed
Feeling tagged
Crossing water
Trying to wipe my tracks
And thereās some little jerk in the FBI
A keepinā papers on me six feet high
It gets me down, it gets me down, it gets me down
You better watch out
On your telephone
Wrong number
They know you aināt home
And thereās some little jerk in the FBI
A keepinā papers on me six feet high
It gets me down, it gets me down, it gets me down
Whoās the man on the corner; that corner over there
I donāt know. Well, you better lay low
Watch out
Keep on the look out
Electric eyes
Rats on the sell out
Who gonna testify
You know my habits
Way ahead of time
Listening to me
On your satellite
And thereās some little jerk in the FBI
A keepinā papers on me six feet high
It gets me down, it gets me down, it gets me down, it gets me down
Hello, baby, mm-hmm
Ah, yeah, you know we aināt, we aināt talkinā alone
Whoās listening? But I donāt really know
But you better tell the SIS to keep out of sight
āCause I know they takinā pictures on the ultraviolet light
Yes, uh huh, yeah, but these days itās all secrecy; no privacy
Shoot first, thatās rightā¦ you know
Bye bye
Whoās listening?
Right now somebody is listening to you
Keeping their eyes peeled on you
Mmm, mmm, what a price, what a price to pay
All right. Good night, sleep tight
I just got excused from jury duty, so Iām very thankful for that, so hereās a song about being thankful.
