Crying like a baby....
Ok, so there I am in the basement watching the Hurricane concert when Harry Connick, Jr comes on awith Wynton marsalis to sing, "Do you know what it means, to miss New Orleans" and I just lost it. I love that song and had not heard it in some time....
While the Louis Armstong one is great, Harry does a good version himself. If you do not know it, here are the lyrics:
Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans
And miss her each night and day
I know I`m not wrong because the feeling`s
Getting stronger the longer I stay away
Miss the moss-covered vines, tall sugar pines
Where mockingbirds used to sing
I`d love to see that old lazy Mississippi
Running in the spring
Moonlight on the bayous
Creole tunes fill the air
I dream about magnolias in June
And I`m wishin I was there
Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans
When that`s where you left your heart
And there`s one thing more, I miss the one I care
for
More than I miss New Orleans
Oh, and by the way, apparently George Bush does not like black people.......at least according to Kanye West. Ballsy move my man.......
