closer without you...

i have climbed the highest mountains, run through the fields...
the video of 'Closer' (cameoing Ben Stiller) somehow reminds me of the first time i listened to 'With Or Without You'...
a Wellcome around my neighborhood: there was a while when pop songs were played in supermarkets (not dated back to the Joshua Tree days though), probably airtime bought by Polygram. the place didn't give the right mood, but the sound just immersed.
a few years passed by, and it's Friends' season 3 in 1997, episode #15 where Ross and Rachel take a break. then the "Best of 1980 - 1990" compilation (paradoxically, released in 1998) brought along all the good deals. then 中山美穗 came back with《眠れる森》...
i'm not that much into rock, except one Irish band, then a Scottish one...
hey don't rock the boat, when you can't swim...
