Because my two John Foxx CDs still haven't arrived from Townsend I'm stuck listening to various newscasters announcing electoral results as I surf channels on my television. Obama will be our next president. That's music to my ears, at least!

John Foxx - In Mysterious Ways 2008 re-issue

Big day for America, so trying to find something I like by John to mark the occasion, settled on playing Drive. Its not all lyrically appropriate, but it is suitably anthemic, with reference to moving onwards and leaving and turning the big mistakes of the past around.

"I'm gonna Drive through the flames in a state of grace..."

Yes indeedy .. in the light of the Obama victory and a lovely crisp sunny autumn day after two days of this part of Europe in the rain, In Mysterious Ways sounds strangely uplifting and optimistic...

Fantastic news America! So I'd like to break out the sunshine and celebrate with The Lifting Sky

Spin Away, Barack baby!

John Foxx - Walk This Way.
Tremendous. If this is a taste of the new stuff, I want to pre-order now.
