Song of the week - Enjoy the Silence 04 by Depeche Mode/Linkin Park
This week's song will forever remind me of Venice leg of the Great European Adventure 2004. On a moderately busy street, I sought refuge from the crowds by entering one of a myriad of glassware stores. Behind the counter, a middle aged man used an acetylene torch on a stick of glass. While I watched him do his thing, this song kicked in and when the guitars started riffing, he started bopping his head along while twisting the glass into a little gondola.
I didn't purchase that gondola which he offered it to me for a value I couldn't justify on my student income but I remembered the song and it takes me back to those times.
This makes me want to leave the country. Again.
