love see no colour

if i died now, i'd be a happy man.

it would suck though. and i'm sure deidra wouldn't be too happy about it. but my life would be complete.

there's this one song i have never been able to find. i've spent about 8 years or so wanting to hear the song again. it was played in the early 90's on kroq... when it was actually good. there's this one song i realky loved but never got the name of, never got the artist of. the only thing i remember about it was the following lines:

love won't see no colour
friendship is the same...
all that i ever got from you
was how to kneel and pray

i did searches, but nothing ever came up. i went as far as to email kroq about the song, but of course, i never heard back from them. elitist fucks.

so a few days ago, i was at work, bored. i saw that there was a new function from yahoo, a forum where you can ask people for information. i decided to give it a shot.

to my surprise, a couple of people answered me. one with the incorrect info. the other one sounded legit. the song could be from an obsure group called, the farm. so after searching amazon (both us and uk), tower records, virgin megastore, and barnes and noble websites, all of which didn't have any audio, i went on ebay.

i found several cds by the farm and decided to email one of the sellers if it was indeed my song. i gave him the lyrics that i knew and today i got the following reply:

Hi, that's the strangest request I've had so far; I'm listening to the song as I type; it is indeed the same song; nice song; grab it for a penny now!!!!

that's not even the best part. yesterday i was telling one of my friends from the bucks that there's this song i really wanted and since he's the self proclaimed computer master, he said he'd see if he can "find" it for me.

well today, he emailed me the song. and i'm listening to it. although i don't remember the song exactly, it is the song. i love it. the chorus rocks.

love ain't see no colour
friendship is the same
loving has no borders
hear the wiseman say

so just sit down and listen
to what i have to say
the only thing i ever got from you
is how to kneel and pray

on another happy note, sometime this year, i'm going to be a best man for one of my friends. i can't believe it, but i'm totally stoked. what an honor. i'm a little nervous, but i'm also very happy. it's going to be good. congrats!

last night, deidra forced me to go dancing with her at this club in alhambra. one of her classmates was having a birthday there. i haven't gone to a club in a long time, not that i used to go all the time. lines, loud music, people dancing. things i'm not too keen on.

after hanging out with her friends for a while, deidra wanted to go dancing. no thanks. so she and her friends went down and danced. after about 20 minutes, i couldn't stand watching her dance alone, without her man. so i decided if i look like a dumbass, i'll look like a dumbass with my baby. i went downstairs and started dancing with her. after about 20 minutes dancing to techno music, i said fuck this, and took her to a room in the back.

little did i know that they were playing 80's and 90's music in the back. we both agreed that this room was so much better, so we ended up staying in the back room for the rest of the night. a lot of smiths and morrissey. i was in dancing heaven. i actually had a great time.

when we left the club a little after 1am, we couldn't hear each other very well. we were on the street going, "what?" "what?" "did you say something?" to deidra's credit, she rewarded me really well when we got home. yeah, yeah!

today is the start of april and i'm going to be royally fucked this month. *sigh*
