‘Baby It’s You’ by Promises (1978)

2 comments October 14th, 2005

For a long, long, long time now, maybe quite a few years, I've always had this song on my mind, which I've whistled to myself on the odd occasion. It had stayed with me from whenever it was popular, or from when I had heard it. I couldn't remember the name of it, and I couldn't remember the lyrics, except 'baby it's you…' That's it. On the odd occasion that I remembered it while web browsing and subsequently tried finding a song to download called 'baby it's you', I was never successful, it constantly eluded me.

Two days ago, I remembered again and decided to search in earnest. I looked up lyrics with those 3 words in them, trying to find something that seemed to fit what I could remember. My research finally met with some results! After a few uncertain websites that pointed me in the direction of a number of artists, I finally found reference to the song 'Baby it's you' by Promises. The lyrics seemed to fit, so I had to download it. Unfortunately, the file-sharing software I use was unable to help me. No one else had the song by Promises, so I searched for a web-based download of it.

Top 1000 Songs Of The Last 30 Years

Ok, I found the most awesomely wonderful site that I could ever find - The Top 1000 Songs Of The Last 30 Years. I'm in heaven!

Most of the list are songs I've never heard of, and I'm really, really surprised about the top 100 of those songs, as most of them I've never heard of before.

Anyway, if you're not into downloading songs off the internet for free, and would prefer to buy them from the shop or over the internet, then this site isn't for you. Don't go there. :-)

29 March 2003 - Bruce Springsteen concert

My apologies for getting this to you later than I said I would. I didn't get home from the concert until after 1am this morning, and I was just too knackered to write about anything, so I just crashed and fell fast asleep. Today I was relaxing around Auckland - I took a few photos from the Sky Tower and other locations around the city. (I'll put them onto the photo page later. They include photos from yesterday and today.) Right now I'm at the airport waiting to catch a flight back to Wellington, so I'm taking the opportunity to write about the concert.

Today has been a VERY strange day. Here's the strangeness in order of appearance…

Strange event 1:
The overseas woman I've mentioned before… she who seems to like being known as 'cyberslut' (but she's not one really)… her and I realised today that there's a certain kind of love that's developed between us, and our online relationship has moved into an interesting new phase.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I thought I'd get something written before Christmas, and here I am. Writing something.
