I was sitting in my place, Buenos Aires city,(yes, iam from Argentina) and then sssssssssheeeeeeeeissusceptible and then ok, i knew i was supposed to like Crimson by default but i ve never heard them really....until a couple of months ago where that song was all the time suspended in the air in my apartment in Agronomia, 20 minutes far from the Obelisc. So then i said, who is the author, Belew was the answer. Ok, google has it all, you were there too, of course. I just felt in love with the song. being 29 years old, well, it seems that i re discovered the wheels right? But i mean, Borges said, argentinean writer,(hard to say that in english...let me think) he said something like this song in my context is like a new song, for this is the first time ive heard it so it is new somehow, as it was never heard for me before...or something like that. <BR/><BR/>well, Abe, your Bio is amazing.

You relate your stories in a very non-judgmental way that shows your fascination with what makes us individuals. It's like the artist in you is always observing and studying the beauty of the world around you. Dang, I just realized how gushy that sounds. Back to our regularly scheduled programming.
