More From Van Morrison

Hear the sledges with the bells, silver bells! what a world of merriment their melody foretells! how they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle, in the icy air of night, while the stars that oversprinkle all the heavens seem to twinkle with a crystalline delight: keeping time, time, time, in a sort of runic rhyme to the tintinnabulation that so musically wells from the bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells-- from the jingling and the tingling of the bells.

And that's what i don't like about magic, captain. 'cos it's *magic*. you can't ask questions, it's magic. it doesn't explain anything, it's magic. you don't know where it comes from, it's magic! that's what i don't like about magic, it does everything by magic!

I love jazz. so to me, there are two main types of jazz. there's dancing jazz, and then there's listening jazz. listening jazz is like thelonius monk or john coltrane, where it's a listening experience. so that's what i like; i like to make stuff that you listen to. it's not really meant to get you up; it's meant to get your mind focused. that's why you sit and listen to jazz. you dance to big band or whatever, but for the most part, you sit and listen to jazz. i think it comes from that aesthetic, trying to take that jazz listening experience and put it on hip-hop.

Deep listening is the kind of listening that can help relieve the suffering of another person. you can call it compassionate listening. you listen with only one purpose: to help him or her to empty his heart. even if he says things that are full of wrong perceptions, full of bitterness, you are still capable of continuing to listen with compassion. because you know that listening like that, you give that person a chance to suffer less.
Heart Compassion Giving
Time has lost all meaning in that nightmare alley of the western world known as the american mind. we wallow in nostalgia but manage to get it all wrong. true nostalgia is an ephemeral composition of disjointed memories... but american-style nostalgia is about as ephemeral as copyrighted d?j? vu.

Those evening bells! those evening bells! how many a tale their music tells of youth and home, and that sweet time when last i heard their soothing chime!

And what is more melancholy than the old apple-trees that linger about the spot where once stood a homestead, but where there is now only a ruined chimney rising our of a grassy and weed-grown cellar? they offer their fruit to every wayfarer--apples that are bitter-sweet with the moral of times vicissitude.
