Which would you prefer?

Post by mistermack » Mon Oct 13, 2014 5:55 pm

To be told you have Alzheimer's, or that you are going blind?

I can't decide. I seem to be catching both, so maybe it will be academic in my case.

I had to get my glasses to read your post, and I've forgotten what I was going to say.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Neither, I couldn't live blind, nor do I fancy turning into a vegetable.

Alzheimer's any day. I already know too much, moreover I live in Alaska.

I've always liked Christine Perfect's version with Chicken Shack, although I must admit that Etta James version is so much better made. It makes Christine sound like she's singing inside a (full) wardrobe.

I would put Amy Winehouse in there as well.

But Sandy Denny is my all-time great female voice.
