We can push with all our might, but nothing's gonna come
Oh no, nothing's gonna change
-Van Halen
I ran 10 miles today. One last long run before the R&B 1/2 marathon next weekend. It was OK. A couple pieces of business to take care of here today. First - today is the Super Bowl. If you have been paying attention, you know that long ago I predicted the brother versus brother Super Bowl. Or implied a league-wide conspiracy. And yes, I had the wrong brothers. Still counts.
And we have reached the end of the 2012/Montreal playlist. Van Halen's (or Van Hagar's) "Can't Stop Loving You" makes the list. This band - they just don't look as good in the rear-view mirror. I remember when I thought of them (with Dave) as untouchable, but in retrospect it all starting falling apart after "Unchained". Anyway - this song has two great qualities - the "Hey" to start it off and the reference to Ray Charles. Otherwise I'm not going to defend the pick. Here's the link and then the complete playlist (in order).
