Happy Anniversary CasinItaly. Congratulations on making the finals CarlosCC.
Week 67: I watch the movie Searching for Sugar Man. It is an inspirational story about a modern musician Sixto Rodriguez, that has part Don Quixote, part Bob Dylan, part biblical Job.
I upload my new song Wits End. It is my first piano song with original lyrics. The curious can listen to a MIDI:

Lyrics follow:
Wits End
I am close to the edge of infinity
I am close to my wits end
Down on my luck, down on my life,
Turning my back on my friends.
I am close to the edge of infinity
I am close to my wits end
I can't think straight, I can't see straight,
I can't find my way home...
Three young muses sing me their songs,
Songs about love, songs about dreams,
Songs about going home...
Will I ever learn my lessons?
Will I ever dream in color?
Will I ever find my way home?
Three young muses sing me their songs,
Songs about love, songs about dreams,
Songs about going home...
I am close to the edge of infinity
I am close to my wits end

The title track to the Sugar Man movie has a line about dreaming in color, and I had already written mine. These small coincidences are interesting to me, I take them as a sign I am on the right track.
