"There's always someone around you"



Our traditio for what is shaping up to be a dark, rainy Friday here along the Wasatch Front is The Velvet Underground's "Sunday Morning." This is one of three beautiful and wistful songs about Sunday morning, which retains, even in our rapidly de-Christianizing culture, a day apart. The other two songs that come to my mind are "Sunday Morning Coming Down," especially as sung by Johnny Cash, and Morrissey's "Every Day is Like Sunday", which was a traditio several years ago. Are there others? If so, drop a comment.

Sunday morning/brings the dawn in/it's just a restless feeling by my side
