It all started when I discovered them (Cool Hand Luke) at 18 years old. 1st I hated them. Then they’ve changed my life. I fall in love with them. Those lyrics, those songs, made me see the truth. Typical to Mark Nicks (drummer, vocalist, songs writer). After a short time, meeting Mark and his band became one of my dreams. Last year, 2007 November, I met him. I met his parents. The house where he grew up, the place where he has written most of the songs. We went to a coffee shop, and for a half an hour I was living my dream. We’ve talked about many things. He encouraged me a lot and I was a great encouragement too for him going all the way to Nashville just to meet him. A simple man, who knew from the very beginning what he wants from life and what life wants from him.
Here’s me and Mark
.
And here’s a song from Cool Hand Luke called “A floating smile” :
Lyrics :
I’m sad that I don’t think about You
Because I just can’t get on without You
You speak in the funniest things
Glimpses of Heavenly dreams
Lately it seems that it’s harder
For my legs to walk any farther
I need you to show me I need you
And give me the faith to believe you
One day You’ll come back
Soon You will come back
One day You’ll take me home (x2)
We’ll fly away (x3)
Forever and ever
On a floating smile

… a fost, ii , si va ramane o hrana pt totdeauna.
