“Devil Inside” – INXS. Only a video this week. I have plenty of music backed up I could share, but I also have a very busy day lined up in preparation for our family Easter celebration tomorrow. The girls also get out of school early today and we’re watching one of my nephews after that, so this will have to do.
This song was selected with a definite reason. In the spring of 1988, one of my best friends from my middle school years, who had moved to St. Louis, came back for the weekend. We spent Saturday driving around visiting friends, dropping in at a mall to eat at the food court, and generally just wasting time and gas. I was obsessed with this song that weekend, so we did the thing where you listen to it, pop the tape out and flip it over listening to the song that is directly opposite, then flipping it back over and listening to it again. I swear we did that 800 times that day. It was probably more like eight or nine but still…
Anyway, after we finished our wanderings we went back to my house and watched KU play Duke in the national semifinal. KU won, then won the national title on Monday. I figure if I need some good music karma for this weekend, this just might be the song to provide it.
