I think it's funny that all of the Garde have talked about living false lives and not their true identities and then Five is like "i'm a liar, it's who i am. you can't hate me for it because it's how we survived. why are you booing me"

Also the time when he was messaging Mark James

“Always on My Mind” Songwriter Mark James Dies at 83

- “Suspicious Minds” and “Hooked on a Feeling” among James’ other compositions

Mark James, the songwriter behind “Always on My Mind,” “Suspicious Mind,” “Hooked on a Feeling” and other hits, has died, according to multiple media reports that cite the Houston Chronicle.

James was 83 when he died June 8 in Nashville; no cause was given.

“Our sincere condolences to the family of songwriter Mark James,” said the Pet Shop Boys, who, like Willie Nelson before them, scored a hit with “Always on My Mind.”

Elvis Presley recorded the definitive version of James’ “Suspicious Minds,” while “Hooked on a Feeling” became a hit for both B.J. Thomas and Blue Swede.

“RIP to Mark James … one of my all-time favorite composers, and Elvis thought so, too,” Leo Sayer said in a statement.

Fine Young Cannibals, Jay-Z, Dwight Yoakam, Bill Withers and others also recorded James’ songs.

More charts 'cause why not?

No because I added Mark and Lexa to that last to fill holes but I couldn't think of someone from the main series to go in the last one for the life of me.

I sit across from six as I do my thing on the computer trying to find number four. “So what is the plan?” I ask,

“We find him, and get him the hell out of there.” She responds, her response is always the same “I’m going to get a refill want one?”

“Yes please.” She takes our cups up tot eh counter. Coffee one of my favorite human drinks. I stop typing. Paradise paradise Ohio is where he’s at. Is he and his ceapean insane! That’s one of the places that my people kept watch. We’re screwed. Six comes back.

“What did you fine?” I can hear the concern in her voice.

“We need to go to paradise Ohio right now.” I say, slamming the computer. She doesn’t ask. Just hands me my coffee. We leave. We get in the old beat up car we stole at a junkyard a few weeks ago. She starts driving. I then decide to fill in. “We have another problem. Paradise is on of the hand full of place my people have put watch over.”

“Fuck!” She yells, she then begins speeding taking all the back roads as I navigate her. Her knuckles right from gripping the stirring wheel so tight. We go directly to a school. My people are already there.

“Looks like we are going to have to fight our way in.”

“Yeah, looks like it.” We get out of the car. She takes my hand turning us invisible. We take out a few mogs along the way and steal their blasters. Not like they need them anymore anyway. We follow the line of mogs to a door. Six turns us visible and we start shooting. She busts down the door. I hold them off. “Alex, get your ass in here!” She shouts, so I do. She slams the door behind me. There are four other people in the room. A girl with blond hair. A boy with shaggy blond hair. A boy with dark brown hair. And a boy with blond hair.

“Which one of you is four?” I ask, one of the boys with blond hair raises his hand. I roll my eyes. “If you were one of my people they would have killed you at birth.” It’s a wonder they didn’t kill Adam at birth. Now I have no clue where he is. They captured us and split us up. I helped six escape. I still have no clue where my brother is.

“Your on of them.” The boy with shaggy hair points out.

“Yeah, don’t worry i don’t plan to kill you.”

“Listen I can only turn myself and four of you invisible…” I interrupt her.

“Take them. I can handle myself.”

“Are you sure?”

“I grew up with them. I know how they think and act. I’ll be fine. I’ll go first.” Before she can stop me I’m already out the door. I remove my glasses and bear my teeth. They reqonize me as a commander due to my tattoos. Even though they known I turned they still respect me. That’s the flaw in their DNA. I shoot all of them dead to ash. I then run down the corridor and into a rom that I see it open. There are the others.

“You’re mogadorien?” The old man asks, my guess is that he’s the cépean.

“Yeah, don’t worry I don’t plan on killing you. Just finding my idiot brother. But to be fair I helped him so I guess that makes both of us idiots in the my people eyes.”

“What did you do?” Four asks,

“We tried to save two and three. We failed both times. We got separated. It’s a long story.” More blaster fire. By some miracle we get out alive. But we’re on the run. Nothing new I guess.

    I had a strange dream last night. I think it stemmed from my random thought on whether or not I am a townie and not the main character in this world... because it was exactly that. What if I'm a mere byproduct of the computations going on to create the game world? Then how did this consciousness get transferred into this body? What if I never lived in the real world? What if, like I wondered once about Bruno, my memories are mere fabrications of the 1's and 0's that make up me?     I get on the computer. It's time to travel the rabbit hole once more.

I can't believe this is the second time I've ever drawn Mark and I made him look like a werewolf himbo

El original de "Always On My Mind" de Brenda Lee, 1972, fina combinación de orquesta con electricidad; y "Hooked On a Feeling" en curiosa versión reggae pop de Jonathan King en 1971.

Bruno Lomas hizo una versión notable en español en 1975 bajo el título "Vente Conmigo". Son las otras dos canciones por las que será recordado Mark James.

♫ Suspicious Minds ♫

It’s funny … I’m not a big fan of Elvis Presley … but yet there are certain of his songs that I dearly love.  My favourite is “In The Ghetto”, but I seem to play that annually, so tonight I’ll go with what probably qualifies as my second-favourite, and as an added bonus, I last played this one waaaaaaaayyyyy back in 2019, so it’s past time for a redux! Released in 1969, this was the last #1 hit…
