It’s funny how one song can ….

 ........ change the course of your life ……

Now the song all by it self can’t do that, but in much the same way as a rudderless ship will drift aimlessly with the risk of running aground and breaking up ….. fitting the rudder can change the course of the ship …. to a safe haven and tranquil waters ……


Thus 15 years after first hearing one particular song …. which thence became my rudder …… it was last night that the singer Glen Hansard captivated and seduced us all at the Union Chapel ...... as we were falling slowly …..


And 15 years later ….. from when I was first gifted that song ….. the ripples are still rippling, the memories still memorised …… and the heart still dances …..
