Friday Again

iPod morning commute music: The Verve, Urban Hymns, 1997
Every time I play this, I'm astounded that it sounds just as good today as it did 8 years ago. I saw Richard Ashcroft perform Bittersweet Symphony during the televised Live 8 concerts, a brilliant performance of one of the great songs of the '90s. The great thing about Urban Hymns, though, is that all the songs hold up.

Tonight, I have to help stuff ballots for the Democrats Abroad Japan-Kansai officers election (I'm one of the three members of the election committee). It really does feel a little dumb, as only one candidate per office was nominated (a pretty apathetic response to our call for nominations) so the results are a foregone conclusion.

Democracy in action!
