Lyrics and musician of the day

Posted on by • Tagged , , , , , • Leave a comment

This song by Toots and the Maytals was playing in my thoughts when I woke up this morning:

Hmm hmm hmm, yeah
Hmm hmm hmm, yeah
Hmm hmm hmm, yeah

It is you
(Oh yeah)
It is you, you
(Oh yeah)
It is you
(Oh yeah)

I say a pressure drop, oh pressure
Oh yeah, pressure drop a drop on you
I say a pressure drop, oh pressure
Oh yeah, pressure drop a drop on you

I say when it drops, oh you gonna feel it
Know that you were doing wrong
I say when it drops, oh you gonna feel it
Know that you were doing wrong

Hmm hmm hmm, yeah
Hmm hmm hmm, yeah
Hmm hmm hmm, yeah

I say a pressure drop, oh pressure
Oh yeah, pressure drop a drop on you
I say a pressure drop, oh pressure
Oh yeah, pressure drop a drop on you

It is you
(Oh yeah)
It is you, you
(Oh yeah)
It is you, you
(Oh yeah)

I say a pressure drop, oh pressure
Oh yeah, pressure drop a drop on you
I say a pressure drop, oh pressure
Oh yeah, pressure drop a drop on you

I say when it drops, oh you gonna feel it
Pressure pressure pressure pressure
(Know that you were doing wrong)
Pressure drops, oh pressure pressure pressure pressure
(Know that you were doing wrong)

I say a pressure drop, oh pressure
Pressure pressure pressure pressure gonna drop on you
(Oh yeah, pressure drop a drop on you)
I say a pressure drop, oh pressure
Oh yeah, pressure drop a drop on you

I say a pressure drop, oh pressure
Oh yeah, pressure drop a drop on you
I say a pressure drop, oh pressure
Oh yeah, pressure drop a drop on you
You you you, yeah

Pressure, pressure, pressure
Drop a drop on you
Pressure, pressure, pressure
Drop a drop on you

Sailing away

Today, the Solar Sailplane Sailor Solicitors announced their plans for a new way to experience flight.

A helium balloon will quickly raise you and 15 of your closest mates to heights rarely attained, save by Red Bull Stratos daredevils, and then, as the balloon bursts, you will begin an around-[most part of]the-world flight in a solar-powered plane designed to gently carry you through stratospheric atmospheric conditions, landing you hundreds if not thousands of kilometers from your launch location.

Lunch will be served during the flight but water closet facilities will not be provided.  Please be prepared to account for this inconsistent discrepancy in travel comfort.

For those willing to spend a little less money but take on greater risk, we’re offering a one-time deal for you to participate in test flights, your return to Earth guaranteed but your bodily condition not.

Hurry!  Seating is limited!

NOTE: Due to the inherent danger involved, travel insurance is unavailable.  We highly recommend planning funeral arrangements in advance.
