I Will Find You
Introduction This snippet is from a Seven Days In post that I did in 2013, when I discovered this amazing song: It's one of those things. I have lots of albums I've not listened to, Today, for the first time, I decided to play "Fireships" by Peter Hamill and was stunned by the first song "I Will Find You", an amazing alien splicing of Blondie's "Presence Dear" and The Police's "Every Breath You Take". You haven't a clue whether the protagonist is a love-struck, caring admirer or an evil, devious stalker, with the latter being the favoured outcome. I've included the song just because it really is a case of you don't know what you're missing.

Some Music YOU Will Probably Hate
Introduction This is for Sam Spinelli's challenge that you can read about here: Now, the thing is, I don't hate any music. I might find some annoying or banal like elevator music, and the fact that almost all music seems to end up advertising something, but if something comes on the radio and I don't like it, I switch it off or change channels.
