Oboro Pano


[click me baby, click me!]

It's not a particularly good photo, and it's not particularly pieced together well, and it is a photo of a town that isn't particularly interesting. Sure Owensboro is where Your Packaging Sucks!! is based, but that's pretty much all it's got going for it.

The lyrics below are here not because there's any connection to the photo other than I like that Connick dude and this is a darn fine song.

This was taken from out of the office window I worked in maybe 7-8 years ago. Though the small amount of construction in the bottom is now complete, I'm pretty sure the skyline is EXACTLY the same. So here you are, Owensboro and Harry Connick, Jr. Play us out, Harry.


On The Street Where You Live Lyrics
Performed by: Harry Connick, Jr.
Album: 25

I have often walked down this street before
But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before
All at once am I several stories high
Knowing I'm on the street where you live

Are there lilac trees in the heart of town?
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
Does enchantment pour out of every door?
No, it's just on the street where you live

And oh, the towering feeling just to know
Somehow you are near
The overpowering feeling that any second
You may suddenly appear

People stop and stare, they don't bother me
For there's nowhere else on earth that I would rather be
Let the time go by, I don't care if I can be here
On the street where you live
