The best song that I'll hear again

Hi guys. What have you been up to?Behold the power of the internet. A little over 5 years ago, I posted this blog post, in which I plead for someone in this universe to send me an mp3 of a song that I had long since lost forever. And someone was listening.

Last Wednesday, the fellow that left a comment on that post, simply saying "If you're still interested I could send you the song," in addition to including a copy of the lyrics. On Saturday, he sent me an mp3. Its possibly even better than I remember.

 Have a listen to "Gooseberry Soda" by Ulf Linder (Well) and sing along. And then check out some more of Ulf's equally good (or near equal, at least) songs on his myspace page.

Everything is right in the world.

There´s just one thing I´m missing, 
One thing I´m longing for

Gooseberry Soda

I´ll drink it without a straw
There´s a black snake in the quarry and dangerous undertows

Feels so good when we´re kissing

That´s what I´m longing for

Gooseberry Soda

I´d love to stay here a while
Just a swift dip in the water
before we head on home

I got some trouble

The flowers are so beautiful
I got to stay
I can´t walk away

Feels so good when we´re kissing

That´s what I´m longing for

Gooseberry Soda

I´d love to stay here a while
Just a swift dip in the water
Before we head on home
