Mick Ronson "The Empty Bed (Io Me Ne Andrei)"

I'd been reading about Handel's operas this morning, but Mick Ronson's "The Empty Bed" (from the 1975 album Play Don't Worry) kept creeping into my head. It's a superb song, one of my favorites, and listening to it always stirs my emotions and makes me think of my own love losses and the toll they've taken on my body, mind, and soul. So this one goes out to you, girls: June, Jo Ann, Clare, Brittany, and Patty. There are still moments when I miss each one of you so much that I feel like I'm going to die. But I won't. I've got miles to go before I sleep.
