Song For Today #3 - Ooberman - Flashing Light At Sunset

"Shooting star at midnight, leaves a trail across the sky / Icy clouds and halo stars, silently pass by / And it starts with you, and it's ended here with you"

Last night I was like Sir Patrick Moore, minus the monocle, plus some 3D glasses I got from the cinema. I just lay there looking at the stars for hours, every now and then a light would come from nowhere, elegantly cutting across the night, then disappearing forever. I thought about someone a million miles away then went to sleep to the sound of Ooberman's 'Running Girl' EP. So really it should be a song for last night, but whatever.
