I chose these 3 days for him to come and visit, because Mercury-Jupiter was partile cnj, partile cnj my Natal Sun. His current SLR has Venus partile cnj IC with Venus/Node=IC, he told me how much my friendship and my astrological help has helped him in his life. He told me he loved me and I told him without his help in my life, I never would have made it this far. Our time together was one of those moments in life where we both realized true friendship means so much to our souls. The old saying: You will go through life and will see/understand your true closest friends can be counted on one hand. We met 50 years ago last Thursday on our first day of registration for college.

I should add if it was not for this close friendship, I never would have met my wife of 45 years. Aging allows one to eventually review his life and connect the 'dots'--- the tremendous difference just one close friendship can mean to one's life.

Steve, are you familiar with this version? Cocker was noted for his, uh, distinctive style of enunciation. In this version, a kind soul has captured in subtitles what Cocker is actually saying (and you can watch his lips and see it's exactly so.)

If you don't know this one, it will, uh, give you a whole new perspective on his performance :D
