I tried to find a single line in Neko Case’s “Curse of the I-5 corridor” but couldn’t pick just one. Listen to the whole thing. It’s exquisite. ---

Not sure if this was mentioned yet - I didn’t read all of the old posts. My vote is for Justin Hayward singing Nights in White Satin’s line - _Oh, how I love you_. It is so heartfelt. I get goosebumps when I hear it. ---

> [@TRC4941](#): > > Justin Hayward singing Nights in White Satin Breath deep the impending doom Watch fobs fall in every room Bedwetting people look back and lament Another day’s useless Depends are spent Impassioned lovers wrestle as three Lonely man cries for love and has me New mother picks up and suckles the sea Senior citizens climb up a tree Cold hearted dorg that rules the night Removes the greyscale from our sight Reds are grey and yellow white But we decide which is right And which is delusion. (And you read that in Mike Pinder’s voice!! Haha!!) ---
