Serenaded

I had decided to randomly give away my 888th cheer, but then TajLV randomly serenaded me, and I was just obliged ;)

The Long and Winding Road

Many Beatles songs make me dance and many make me long. But the one that tingles me most is from their final album together “Let It Be”.

George, oh, George!

Something in the way he moves
Attracts me like no other lover [...]
Somewhere in his smile he knows…

Something, one of my favorite Beatles’ song, composed by one of the most attractive men ever, it’s really about him... ggrroar!! ;)
