Not Dark Yet
I love it when iTunes serves up a tune that suits my mood or frame of mind. Winamp was fairly good at the empathetic symbiosis, better than iTunes has been historically, but I've come to like other features of iTunes too much to switch back. The occasional prescient musical offering, even in lower frequency, is simply butter on the banana bread.
My entire afternoon has been spent studying in my room - a room now conducive to studying with the addition of a desk and an immense armchair dating from about the 1940s and upholstered in textured burgundy velvet. I have fallen in love with this chair, as it is the perfect height and depth for my legs and the cushion and metal-spring bottom is extremely supportive.
I've been watching the light fade from the sky and the room grow dimmer, feeling my eyes begin to strain to read. At that moment, iTunes served up Bob Dylan's "Not Dark Yet," a tune (like Time Out of Mind itself) that I had yet to pay much attention to. The subject of the song wasn't apropos of my mood, but the feel, sound, and demeanor of the song were.
I only have four Dylan albums (Highway 61 Revisited, Blood on the Tracks, MTV Unplugged, Time Out of Mind), something that I feel quite guilty about as a Minnesotan. Thus, the following poll:
Poll A man named Zimmerman
