the Singing Frog

I hope this isn’t like John Mayer singing ‘Daughters’ out of the blue, squeezing it between a ‘Come Back to Bed’ and an ‘Only Heart’ – like sense between romance and chauvinism. Actually, I don’t think this is a ‘Daughters’, this is more of the Nick Drake inspired thought than one of John, the kind that’s left behind inside your head, the residual remains of a certain ‘Northern Sky’ or a ‘From the Morning’ more than the vapour that entered and left without a word of goodbye.

Ryan Gosling has much to contribute to this too, he voiced-over for the cartoon without pay particularly because I did the honours, I just… worked upon an already-existing plate. Here’s what came out of that:

The intention is the reach: To be lovable, to be received and to be listened to. As a person, I still see myself as the liberalist-ethical crossover and I don’t want the upcoming to be caught in that tangle – it’s harder to fight it when you’re not aware, and trust me: It takes time to be aware. It takes longer to get things under control – a time-span I don’t know of considering I’m still somewhere in the middle.

Hence, a note to all the parents and elder brothers and elder sisters who read my blog. For lack of a better medium, at least temporarily, I’m having to resort to the tabooed (internet) to get to the disallowed. So, if I could get your permission with the assurance that I’d be polite, I’d take to corresponding with the kids from now, updating them with bits of my life that I feel would be no different from theirs, except for some clarity of thought. The idea is not to nurture through counsel, but to lead by example. Not that I deserve to be one, I’m far from a role model as anyone can be.

But maybe that’s what makes me all the more suitable.

So, as said, here’s where the Writer takes a bow and introduces the act. And Joel, on his part, doesn’t just sing well, he also happens to have an amazing voice – you’d have to wait for that, though. I’d leave it to your imagination, until then.
