Tina Turner - Tonight I'll Be Staying Here With You (1974)
I was reading a short NY Times article about Dylan covers performed by women artists. The writer mentioned this version that I'd never heard. It's pretty damn great - from Tina's first solo LP Tina Turns the Country On!.

The book is here. Go read it, I think you'll love it.
On the image creation process: 1/ Using Canva, transcribe (some of) the words from the scene into different slides. 2/ Try to figure out how long it takes to read. Choose arbitrary eight seconds. 3/ Add transition like this is a PowerPoint. 4/ Question life choices up to this point. 5/ Upload to TikTok and add music. 6/ Upload TikTok version to Tumblr because it has the music.
::tooth-gritting while smiling emoji:: Awesome.

TINA TURNER: “TONIGHT I’LL BE STAYING HERE WITH YOU” (BOB DYLAN)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrFGc7DKUWQ
Throw my ticket out the window Throw my suitcase out there, too Throw my troubles out the door I don’t need them anymore ’Cause tonight I’ll be staying here with you I should have left this town this morning But it was more than I could do Oh, your love comes on so strong And I’ve waited all day long For tonight when I’ll be staying here with you Is it really any wonder The love that a stranger might receive You cast your spell and I went under I find it so difficult to leave I can hear that whistle blowin’ I see that stationmaster, too If there’s a poor boy on the street Then let him have my seat ’Cause tonight I’ll be staying here with you Throw my ticket out the window Throw my suitcase out there, too Throw my troubles out the door I don’t need them anymore ’Cause tonight I’ll be staying here with you

#You got a fast car I want a ticket to anywhere Maybe we make a deal Maybe together we can get somewhere Any place is better Starting from#zero got nothing to lose Maybe we'll make something Me myself I got nothing to prove You got a fast car I got a plan to get us outta here I#been working at the convenience store Managed to save just a little bit of money Won't have to drive too far Just 'cross the border and into#the city You and I can both get jobs And finally see what it means to be living See my old man's got a problem He live with the bottle#that's the way it is He says his body's too old for working His body's too young to look like his My mama went off and left him She wanted#more from life than he could give I said somebody's got to take care of him So I quit school and that's what I did You got a fast car Is it#fast enough so we can fly away? We gotta make a decision Leave tonight or live and die this way So I remember when we were driving#driving in your car Speed so fast it felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder#And I-I had a feeling that I belonged I-I had a feeling I could be someone be someone be someone You got a fast car We go cruising#entertain ourselves You still ain't got a job And I work in the market as a checkout girl I know things will get better You'll find work and#I'll get promoted We'll move out of the shelter Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs So I remember when we were driving driving in#your car Speed so fast it felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I-I had#a feeling that I belonged I-I had a feeling I could be someone be someone be someone You got a fast car I got a job that pays all our bills#You stay out drinking late at the bar See more of your friends than you do of your kids I'd always hoped for better Thought maybe together#you and me'd find it I got no plans I ain't going nowhere Take your fast car and keep on driving So I remember when we were driving driving#in your car Speed so fast it felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And#I-I had a feeling that I belonged I-I had a feeling I could be someone be someone be someone You got a fast car Is it fast enough so you can#fly away?You gotta make a decisionLeave tonight or live and die this way#le song shouting

#went out on the town tonight to the so-called sketchiest area (i find it delightful)#met some friends at a café and then we strolled for a while#ended up at a cute french bar and drank orange wine#then headed to a famous noodle place and bumped into some other people they knew who joined us#the five of us ate noodles and i had an intense conversation with a mexican woman#we were discussing the way the complaint about 'immigrants not learning the language' can be understood two ways#as an american i'm very sensitive to that phrase because i'm accustomed to it being used as a subtle indicator of anti-immigrant sentiment#and here in germany it's unfortunately often used that way too so i always look closely at anyone who says that#but she pointed out that in mexico you kind of just do have to learn spanish if you want to live there successfully#so when she hears germans saying 'immigrants should learn german' she just thinks 'well yeah of course we should'#and i said yeah fair point#i think two important distinctions are 1) why did the immigrants in question come to a different country#and 2) how do we treat them when they don't learn their new country's language very rapidly#because i may be a hypocrite but i'll be honest:#i feel very differently toward a rich white american who comes to berlin 'because it's just so cool'#and doesn't put much effort into learning german 'because everyone speaks english anyway'#than i do towards a refugee who comes here fleeing death and already speaks e.g. both arabic and english#i'm inclined to give the latter a lot more leeway#sure they should do their best to learn german soon if they're planning to stay here for good#but i personally refuse to judge them in the slightest if they take a little while to make that happen#cosmo gyres#personal#language#immigration

Mike saying Albeh-turkey and Tuckson in Albuquerque and Tucson is what is keeping me going in these (literally dark) times.
#the smoke from the fires in canada has settled in here#and its very apocalyptic#so i don't know how to best describe it - but i have a very loose attachment to existence in this world#and i promise i'm not in active suicidal ideation or anything#but when the world at large gets really real i just wonder if it's worth being here#if you ever wonder why my partner is so important to me even while i'm hard crushing on mike#this is why - if he were here i'd instantly know my reason for staying around#but as it is - i'll just have to remember he's coming home tonight and in the meantime#mike is singing The Thrill is Gone in Tuckson so i might as well listen to that and go from there#suicide tw#truly truly i'm ok

so judging by how astonished people are by it every time we explain it to anybody, it seems like my wife and I might really be onto something here
during the pandemic, we invented something we call "astronaut time."
when it's astronaut time, it's like we are two astronauts wearing the big helmets, moving around the station on totally separate tasks. one of us is outside the space station and one of us is inside the space station. our radios do not work and we have no way of communicating with each other. we might see each other through the lil porthole windows, but we ignore each other because we both have different things to do.
"astronaut time" is how we get total privacy when we live in the same apartment. I will pretend you don't exist. You will pretend I don't exist. we have a nonverbal, zero-contact signal for when astronaut time is over (usually "I'll draw a smiley-face on the whiteboard in the kitchen when I'm done"). No talking, stay out of each other's line of sight, we are actively avoiding each other, unless you are currently experiencing a medical emergency goodbye.
it has been. a godsend. imagine living with your partner and being able to close every single tab in your brain related to social interaction. no fear of being interrupted by a "hey, quick question--" or "sorry to bother you, but do you know where the scissors are?" or "did you want something to eat, too?" Once or twice a month, we look at each other lovingly, hold hands, and say "baby I think I need some astronaut time tonight," and the other person goes "okay cool. bye! have a nice night!" and nobody's feelings are hurt and we both go and have a lovely evening completely by ourselves.
like idk it's a small thing but it's made our lives so much nicer, so if you and your partner/roommate are both people who sometimes need total privacy in order to recharge, maybe try it

#my back hurts. my shoulders hurt. I'm exhausted. tomorrow is supposed to be my day off but theres this stupid group project#so I have to be there even though its the last fucking thing I want to spend my day off on#cant even stay up late tonight because of it and I'm so fucking pissed that I keep getting shafted here#nobody else gets their fronting time fucked with like I do. and they have the audacity to act like I'm selfish for wanting time to front.#as if I havent been a primary host for 2 and a half years. as if I should just meekly accept that there's no time for me#well guess fucking what#you need me. you know damn well how bad everything gets when I'm not here to be the trauma and misery sponge.#you can't handle it without me. not without having to deal with the trauma intrusions I keep at bay. you remember how it was before me.#if I'm really so selfish than see how well you do without me. I'll wait.#as if it wasnt my life first
