"Jig of Life" by Kate Bush

I listened to side 2 of Kate Bush's "Hounds of Love" album, aka "The Ninth Wave".  I had forgotten that I had a copy of this album on marble vinyl, it was a delight when I pulled it out of the sleeve and saw it.

"Jig of Life" always reminds me of my friends Rob and Connie.  They are into folk music and I put this on a "mix tape" for them years ago.  I've always loved the "I put this moment... here" part of this song.  And the lines:

This moment time
It doesn't belong to you
It belongs to me

The fan video is one of the most extraordinary videos I've ever seen.  I got chills watching it!
