rediscovery

i just came to appreciate, once again, what a brilliant song into temptation is, and how beautifully neil finn weaves images with words. i can't decide which bit of the song i like the best, although the first four lines are a pretty persuasive hook, as far as i'm concerned:

it's wonderful to rediscover these things sometimes.
