"I was half in mind - I was half in need,
And as the rain came down - I dropped to my knees and prayed.
I said "Oh Heavenly one - please cleanse my soul,
I've seen all on offer and I'm not impressed at all..."
The Style Council
They met at a job interview.
She questioned him.
He filled out the application.
They were married in two years
And moved to her home, Chicago.
It's all about finding happiness. Shit happens. Crappy days happen. You get divorced. Nothing goes right -- But you never forget how Chicago can shout. .

What a town! Got pulled over going to work and the cop asked for my license and what I did for a living. I asked him what he needed to hear to let me walk! Alderman? Mayors office? Four years in the city, what a great run! Salt of the earth.

I miss Chicago. Odd, I was always looking to leave. This song reflects the city I saw going through a divorce. I'll never forget it. Beautiful and full of what I thought good was -- even in bad times.
I'm also fond of Loleatta's manicure.
