Set On You

This has taken me hours. In fact from the initial planning it's taken me weeks.

It all started when they played trailers for The Mentalist. I don't watch it. But the trailer had a George Harrison track playing - one that I didn't have. I thought I had them all, so I believed I was mad - it couldn't be him.

Anyway, I found it on an album I didn't have and ordered it through Amazon. That was on February 17th.

On February 22nd (a whole five days later) they emailed me to say they had sent it out. That delay really pissed me off. The name of the company was Moviemars USA, so I assumed it was coming from the US. The guy I buy my Goren gear from gets things to me from California in as little as five days. This one went to the wire, and the cd arrived today. With a UK postage label. And a sticker on the cellophane wrapper that said it was for sale only in S. America except Brazil.

Ironically, the blurb with the album includes saying he had this number going through his head for ages, too, and that's why he decided to include it on the album.

Anyway, I have now spent so long choosing pictures that I can't finish my project as I'd intended, with pictures from every Season 3 episode. I've gone for picture sequences that show the nuanced expressions the handsome Mr D'Onofrio makes, and I think I can assure you a fabulous face-fest.

Ye gods I had this song on a single 'cause I really liked it... and then Mr Harrison said something incredibly rude about U2, so I smashed it with a hammer and threw it out (sorry!)

val said...

Oh, I knew it, GuidingLight, I knew it so well I was convinced I'd played it lots of times, soI searched through all my George Harrison cds, and it just wasn't there.

Now I will have this terrific song, and some very delicious visions of Vincent, stuck in my head all night long and all day tomorrow! Lucky me!
