Perhaps...but that would drastically reduce the amount of time we can spend on stalking you. Are you sure that this is what you want?

I take it all back. You two can fight like Felix and Oscar until the cows come home, but please don't stop cyber-stalking me. It does wonders for my middle aged ego.

Donovan’s Sand and Foam is one of the best songs from the Mellow Yellow album and one of his best ever. After you’ve heard it once you can’t forget it. The lyrics:

The sun was going down behind a tattooed tree

And the simple act of an oar's stroke put diamonds in the sea

And all because of the phosphorus there in quantity

As I dug you diggin' me in mexico

There in the valley of scorpio, beneath the cross of jade

Smoking on the seashell pipe the gypsies had made

We sat and we dreamed a while of smugglers bringing wine

In that crystal thought time in mexico

Sitting in a chair of bamboo, sipping grenadine

Straining my eyes for a surfacing submarine

Kingdoms of ants walk across my feet

I'm a-shakin' in my seat in mexico

Grasshoppers creaking in the velvet jungle night

Microscopic circles in the fluid of my sight

Watching a black-eyed native girl cut and trim the lamp

Valentino vamp in mexico

The sun was going down behind a tattooed tree

And the simple act of an oar's stroke put diamonds in the sea

And all because of the phosphorus there in quantity

I dug you diggin' me in mexico
