A week after my Grandma has died, we’ve had another death in the family. This time on my mother’s side. And this time a suicide.
I’m going to need a little break, ok? Be back soon.

Now and Then: Episode Duex
I have to say that both versions of this song, Then, and Now, give me great joy. I couldn’t tell you which one I prefer, they are both genius. I guess props goes out, first, to Tom for wiring the song in the first place. A song of love, betrayal, and ultimately – fatale vengeance. Why, why why… oh Delilah. You little minx!
Delilah – Tom Jones 1968
This is the version of the song that I stumbled across that made me pick it for today’s Now and Then. It usually works that way, backwards. This actually came out in 2001, but compared to 1968, that is Now. Come with me, once again, while we to go and pay another visit to slutty, doomed, Delilah with the Crash Test Dummies Dude.
Delilah – Brad Roberts 2001
