"Will It Go Round in Circles" is a song written by Bruce Fisher and Billy Preston, and recorded by Preston for his 1972 album Music Is My Life. On its release as a single in 1973, the song was a number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and sold over a million copies.
It has almost been a year since I last posted to this blog. Injuries and illness have plagued me since I turned 50 (December of 2010). Accompanying the illness and injuries has been a circle of weight loss and gain. The latest illness was pneumonia. This nasty bout of sickness left me very week and unable to participate in physical exercise for two months.
I am currently 187 pounds. I will be spending two weeks with the person who is responsible for my ship slowing rising off the bottom of the lake (see my July 19, 2010 post). I hope to be 185 lbs before I leave and return weighing 180 pounds or less.
What I learned on this journey is that Preston is one of several people sometimes referred to by outsiders as a "Fifth Beatle." At one point John Lennon even proposed the idea of having him as the "Fifth Beatle" (to which Paul countered that it was bad enough with four).
You are...
