Also had to, sadly, put down our cat because he had advanced stage of cancer so that was sad. Only had him a year or so...


    I'm sorry, that's really sad.

    I love cats, but we don't have one, I wouldn't be surprised if we do by the end of the year though.
  3. Coldplay are fantastic. Yeah it is sad because even after a year or whatever it was, you become attached.
  4. Yeah, I was pretty attached to my uncle and aunt's cat that died a few years ago. I think it got about twenty years old though, so for me that cat just lived there. And then it was gone, felt really empty at their house.
  5. 20 years? Did the cat own the house?

    It will be a little emptier now but at least he no longer has to suffer. His stomach started getting really big and he screamed even when you went near him. Internal bleeding also.

    It did kind of own the house I guess.

    Ok, then you made the right choice. I feel really sorry for all those suffering animals that people hang on to just out of the pure egoism of themselves.
  7. Totally. As much as we loved him, we couldn't keep him suffering any longer. I couldn't watch the needle, I have a real phobia of not just needles but seeing something like that. It kills me to even think about it.

    And I usually don't cry easily, but I know I did.

    I dont either, but some things just makes you cry. Some U2 songs, and when stuff like this happens.
  9. The only time I cried at a song was Smile by Michael Jackson (originally by Charlie Chaplin), MJ's version. I had that up as loud as possible and I cried hard right through it. Smile is actually one of my most favourite songs of all time....I may record it if I don't tear up at it.

    Hard to sing, that one. But so fucking beautiful.

    Miss Sarajevo has made me cry, just thinking about what happened there... The U2 New York 2001 concert with the SBD is pretty damn emotional in so many ways too.
  11. Miss Sarajevo and the entire Passengers album are possibly the greatest Eno-produced efforts besides his early solo, the Ambient series (1 to 4) and Apollo. You have to hear them....they are so vividly beautiful.

    I've been saying that about Passengers since I first heard it. One day I'd love to hear more of Passengers - the 25 hours on tape for exanple. It'd be incredible to hear as would the other NLOTH stuff produced by him.
  12. Original Soundtracks 1 is great, songs like Slug, Your Blue Room and Miss Sarajevo should be classics.
