I would reply, but I think Matt Nathanson has already said it:
ALL BEEN SAID BEFORE

I am held together by clothespins
And tension, a wealth of odds and ends
I'm dazzling so dazzling like the neon street sign
Hiccuping off and on again all night long
Well I've got [cpaptalk] friends
And enough jealousy to lose them all
I know this has all been said before

I shed what escape my fiction provided
Lived a lifetime inside of my shelter
Thought it about time to see outside
But I believed it was easy,
Stupidly thought I could just get up and walk away
I know this has all been said before
I know this has all been said before

Because I've got illness hugging me like skin
And I'll sweat it clean until I can taste the oxygen

And I know this has all been said before

All I would add is . . .

It's OK for us to sing the same songs at every concert.

We just have to change up the arrangements of the songs now and then to keep ourselves interested.

After all, it's all about the audience--not the musicians.

A good live performance beats a studio recording every time, though, IMO.

It's the energy of the give and take.

The connection.

Here at cpaptalk, we talk.

Even when it's all been said before.

Yes! I am loving the book actually. I meant to thank you for the recommendation. I started it the day you recommended it. Its been a little slow going with the other stuff going on (I have sort of been consumed with researching that for the past 3 days or so) but yes...I've only read about 20% so far (Kindle) but I really do like it.
