(Just click on the pic to play the vid.)

Over the past months I have been increasingly unwilling to post videos
from youTube. The reason for that is that the vids tend to come and go.
There are of course some that have been featured there for a long time.
But there are probably more that are posted and then taken off in a short
time span. Usually the ones that are taken off (for whatever reason) end
up being put back on by somebody else. But it makes no difference at that
point — the original URL path put onto the blog here is now defunct for
the earlier one. A few times I have gone back to earlier posts to see if
the videos are still active links. And I always find at least a few that
are not.

I mentioned to someone once that if nothing else, linking to youTube can
teach us something about the transience of existence. But I guess I'm
tired of thinking about all of it — permanence or impermanence, good
links or bad, time, and changes through life. It's all written into
the stars anyway. I'm tired of thinking about it.

I think I'm going to quit with the youTube thing. I can't swear that I
will never link another one again, especially in the Comments, but at
this point I don't intend to continue using them.

And so, assuming this is my last one, I thought that I would put up this
song by Mozella. It is truly pop fluff. In fact it is even fluffier and
poppier than normal. As well as being somewhat delusional. We all know
that the sun won't shine forever, as stated in the song. But you know,
deluding myself and finding some crazy unrealistic joy is something that
I am willing to do every once in a while, for 3:38 seconds, temporary,
but what the hell — it's magic, yeah?

"It's Magic"

Oh, Oh It's magic
Oh, Oh It's magic
Look at the sun way up there in the sky
Shining forever the world is so bright
Oh, Oh It's magic everywhere

A little bird chirping high in the tree
He flew right down
And whispered these words to me:
He said look all around
Life is just so beautiful I found, wo-oh-oh
Oh, Oh It's magic
Oh, Oh It's magic

Look at the sun way up there in the sky
Shining forever the world is so bright
Oh, Oh It's magic everywhere

Went down to the river to wash all my cares away
Saw a little fish swimming
And here's what he had to say:
He said girl don't you know
Life is just so easy when you go with the flow
Oh, Oh It's magic
Oh, Oh It's magic

Look at the sun way up there in the sky
Shining forever the world is so bright
Oh, Oh It's magic everywhere

It's a perfect day
Everything will be ok
It's a perfect day
I'm gonna celebrate
It's a perfect day
Everything will be ok
It's a perfect day
I'm gonna celebrate

Look all around
Life is just so beautiful I found, wo-oh-oh
Oh, Oh It's magic
Oh, Oh It's magic

Look at the sun way up there in the sky
Shining forever the world is so bright
Oh, Oh It's magic
Oh, Oh It's magic, magic yeah
Oh, Oh It's magic
Look at the sun way up there in the sky
Shining forever the world is so bright
Oh, Oh It's magic everywhere!
