Calvin Edwin "Cal" Ripken, Jr. (born August 8, 1960), nicknamed "Iron Man", is a former Major League Baseball shortstop and third baseman. He played his entire 21-year baseball career for the Baltimore Orioles (1981–2001).
Ripken is perhaps best known for breaking New York Yankees first baseman Lou Gehrig's record for consecutive games played, a record many deemed unbreakable. He surpassed the 56-year-old record when he played in his 2,131st consecutive game on September 6, 1995, against the California Angels in front of a sold-out crowd at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. To make the feat even more memorable, Ripken hit a home run in the previous night's game that tied Gehrig's record and another home run in his 2,131st game. Fans later voted his 2,131st game as Major League Baseball's "Most Memorable Moment" in MLB history. Ripken played in an additional 501 straight games over the next three years, and his streak ended at 2,632 games when he voluntarily removed his name from the lineup for the final Orioles home game of the 1998 season. His record 2,632 straight games spanned over seventeen seasons, from May 30, 1982, to September 20, 1998.
The Organ was a Canadian indie pop band formed in 2001 in Vancouver, British Columbia. They officially broke up on December 7, 2006, due to illness and personal conflicts in the band.
The Organ were conceived in 2001 by frontwoman Katie Sketch, born Katie Ritchie, in Vancouver, BC. Sketch's musical training started at the age of three, when she began classical training on the violin. Her childhood was spent largely in ignorance of the underground sounds of The Smiths, The Cure, and Joy Division, whom The Organ would later often be favorably compared to. "Tiffany and Bon Jovi - that was my take on ’80s music."
Sketch has said of the time of the formation of the band, when she and the band members were in their early to mid-twenties. "I was in a musical lull, I couldn’t stand what I was listening to," naming Sleater-Kinney as one example. “The local scene was also pretty shitty, and of course the radio was brutal. Then, by total fluke, my mom’s friend’s husband, Ron Obvious, hired me to help with the audio wiring for a studio he was building for Bryan Adams.” Obvious introduced Katie to the world of independent music, and what she calls "that ’80s sound." He created mix-tapes of bands he thought she’d appreciate as a violinist (Roxy Music, Ultravox) and singers with an "amazing natural vocal pitch" (Siouxsie and the Banshees, Nina Hagen, Kate Bush)). This job also led Sketch to Tara Nelson, the engineer who would later record the Organ’s first EP.
William hovers bear trap teeth
Tender necks on tender knives
Cindy prone hung by heat
Soaks her dress in a long convulsion
-unremembering/nest on winter/bears/on broken trees that
we can last (eat each other)
orbits crack spring comes late william sheds another wife
wrists for pulses seed the clouds quiet as the first snow
-cold logic now/her hot tears make me erect/the shred of
hope that we could last
vexations gathering to re-assemble our impasse
better angles drunk adn slow sung to sleep in kitchen
Spanish
unremembering/nest on winter/bears/on broken trees that
we can last (eat each other)
better angels of our nature
mercy mercy let this change take
winter bears dream kitchen Spanish
So they came into being
Under a dying sun
Better angels of our nature
A job well done?
Don't under the surface
Lying dead but dreaming
Better angels of our natures
'twas a dream worth dreaming...
When all our wisdom has faded
All is said and done
Our good intentions are jaded, jaded
And all hope is done
For the better angels
So the seagulls landed
On a dying shore
And all our hopes were stranded
Growing faint to the core
Yet the city's breathing
Forever dead but dreaming
Better angels of our nature
'twas a dream worth dreaming...
Let us pray for our better angels...
Its not like I haven't tried and tried
It isn't where I look but what I find
Been keeping clear of stepping on the cracks
This just enough to keep me coming back
Oh I'm waiting for better angels
Oh I'm waiting for any lead
Though my case looks fatal
I'm still hoping better angels come to me
Better late than not at all
Better to make a break than take a fall
I wouldn't mind hanging on
If I could find out what I'm hanging from
Oh I'm waiting for better angels
Oh I'm waiting for any lead
Though my case looks fatal
I'm still hoping better angels come to me
(Instrumental)
I'm waiting for better angels
Oh I'm waiting for any lead
Though my case looks fatal
I'm still hoping better angels come to me
Still hoping better angels come to me
Still hoping better angels
