I get to be as self-indulgent as I want without wasting anyone's time. Guilt-free solipsism -- excellent!

It has been pointed out that "Turn And Run", from Neil Finn's most recent album One Nil, is eerily apposite at the moment. It's a beautiful song, and you can download an MP3 of it here. That's Sheryl Crow on harmony vocals.

Neil Finn:
TURN AND RUN
(Neil Finn, 2000)

There's a light overhead, overhead
In the sky overhead, overhead
and i'm with you now, in body and music and mind
and we're silent and still
everything's so out of control tonight

in a plane that's flying fast
at a speed that makes me cry
have you left me now
to trouble that won't let me lie
i'm awake all the time
you know where i stand
holding my plastic gun

so turn and run
you cold killers of innocence
against us there's no defense
your flash and your wickedness
you can't break our love

tie my hands behind my back
put a gag on top of my mouth
but i won't give you up
till silverware's covered in dust
and my shoes fall apart
and the tumbleweed runs
over my desert heart

so turn and run
you cold killers of innocence
against us there's no defense
your flash and your wickedness
will surely bring you down again

somehow we must stay afloat
won't give into the undertow
some things you will never know
but you can't break our love
(you can pull us down)
but you can't break our love....
