For those of you that are new to my MidNight Gems series. Welcome to this nightly trip on which we will uncover & recover some amazing covers and we will do it a little different tonight....

Tonight I will again travel through my 500 GB of music, songs and artists I have been collecting over decades....ever since the MP3 allowed you to digitally store your favorite music and in my case there is a lot to store.

Lats time we did an A, and some B artists we drifted away from the alphabetical order of my unstructured plan...and ended up listening to a lot of dark Poetic Justice.

So today we will go for something Totally Different. This grand lady is well know for a very different song.. ...but this song is so typical....and still funny after all those years....btw what is his last name?

1. Christine Lavine - Prince Charles

So yes we arrived at the songs with a high C......and I fancy girls named Christine.....and there is only one Christine who knows why.....and she would probably never read this...so Christine....every time I think of you ....that Mahlstrom starts up again.....but we will probably never be able to overcome my Narcissistic need to find mental and physical satisfaction.

2. Christine and the Queens - Narcissus is Back

So let´s leave that C behind she brings back way to much memories....just like the following clip does....I have never been able to find that one song Daryll Ann had put out on a Noorderslag CD ....but some how they always stayed in my heart as one of those bands of which I one day hope to find that missing song.... But Ray Cokes will make me forget all about that.....for He´s Still Mr. MTV

3. Daryll-Ann - Oceans live @ MTV Ray Cokes

And if we are talking about heroes....the step to angels is only a wing away.....and hero does not fo the Great Santana justice......this guy is a legend and Angel carrying a guitar instead of a trumpet....my goodness how nice it is to share this.

4. Carlos Santana & Sarah Mclachlan - Angel (live)

And we are back in the key of C and ...maybe my little C was some kind of an angel....an angel I had to set free....she helped me through the most difficult periods in my life....probably without knowing.

But the more gems I share, the more often I find that she is the the unwilling inspiration. I miss your company Miss. Wilkinson. There is no day that goes by that I do not hear our music in my head.

5. Alanis Morissette - I Miss The Band

Like a Mahlstrom, like a hurricane we turned each others life´s upside down...time and time again.

That magnetism wrecked whatever we were building, up or should be leaving behind. We might not have been meant to be.... but I experienced something bigger than ever before being alone with you.

6. Dido - Hurricanes (Acoustic)

And I have written you sonnets, I am giving you this playlist as an ode to you...as it is the very least I can do....

I will probably never meet you again my little introvert, but o so cute and smart Essex girl (and yes that is a contradictio in terminis).

7. The Verve - Sonnet

You were the inspiration to start over......and I hope we will once be able to look each other in the eyes and say do you remember, as we will always have Chelmsford.

8. Delta Goodrem - You're The Voice

So for those of you that thought I could not get any more theatrical....you clearly don´t know me. I can touch the darkness, I can shine the light....I can find the inspiration and I can share it....I can share those things that are pure.....filled with much...with way too much theater .....way to much of everything....while still touching.....touching the bellessness of her soul.
