I Shall.........

....as I regained consciousness this morning a song echoed in my head. This often happens to me. Usually it's not the whole song. More so it's just one or two lyrics that repeat themselves endlessly until I finally wake up and play a real song on my computer or whatever. I'm sure this happens to a lot of people but I've never asked so I won't assume anything. But I digress. As I woke up I was pleasantly pleased to find that todays morning tune was Proceed from the Do You Want More?!!!??! album. Not a real shocker that a Roots track would play in my head but what did surprise me was the timing of this particular event.

The specific lyrics in question were the following:

"I wake up early in the morning, I mean early afternoon
Break a lyrical hymn of the stem like boom
I'm flyer when I'm higher put my shit up on a tomb
I represented on the 28th of June
I'm representing philly on the 28th of June"

I wasn't fully on my "calendar game" but I did have an inkling that today was in fact June 28. Strange shit indeed if you ask me. Even my subconscious internal calendar is in tune with the 215th. I was equally amused as I was pleased.

As usual, here is the accompanying vid - the line starts at 2:26


Also, here is something else from the Legendary that I feel like adding for no other reason than your listening pleasure. They played this song at the last show I saw and, since I don't listen to D'Angelo, I didn't recognize it but I fucking knew I liked it when my brain started sizzling. I finally found it online (hello youtubes) after searching for months.
