they say there's a sun in the sky

"They say there's a sun in the sky
But me, I can't imagine why
There might have been one
Before you were gone
But now all I see is the night"

I found the cutest thing in the world, a blog called "69 Love Songs, Illustrated" - as you can probably imagine, it's quite the Magnetic Fields homage.

The little "about us" blurb tells me that they are a "loose collection of mostly London-based comic-artists, illustrators and writers, who have grown up listening to the Magnetic Fields and got together over a mutual love of the songs. One day, on Twitter, a couple of us decided that illustrating – or writing a comic – or a short story – inspired by all 69 songs was a worthwhile and exciting pursuit."

The illustration to "They Say There's a Sun In The Sky" is heartbreakingly adorable. I'm still to locate the one for "I Don't Want To Get Over You", but I can *almost* imagine.

PS. At the last minute in 2009, I just successfully made my first link to another website in a blog-post (disclaimer, well I THINK I did, ha, you may be witnessing otherwise). 2010 is going to be a good year, I just know it.
