Daily Open Thread for Wednesday, Jan. 16: This I Love

Here's your Daily Open Thread for Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2013. As usual, come discuss whatever you would like, whether you get bored at work, have something on your mind, or just want to chat with all your favorite lovely Cagesiders on any topic you want!

For today's video, I would like to share "This I Love" by Guns N' Roses. This is probably my all time favorite song from them.

Here, it is interpreted artistically and used as the backdrop for a performance which won the 2009 World Pole Dance Competition (which should be an Olympic Sport as a sub-genre of gymnastics) by the infamous competitive pole dancer and fitness guru, 'Felix':

If you are fan of Felix Cane's Acrobatic Artistry like I am, then you may enjoy this, too.

Wouldn't she make one helluva Diva or Knockout? Go ahead and let that thought kick off the discussion for today. And after checking that out, then be sure to scroll on down through the thread, make a comment or two or dozens, revisit it throughout the day and night, and you will be sure to see some of the usual gems from your fellow Cagesiders, including:

Link of the day, Babe of the day, Bro of the day, Alison Brie gif of the day, AJ Lee pic of the day, Photo Caption of the Day, and more!

This thread is guaranteed to cheer up any form of blues you may have, or give you a venue to gripe about work, your better half, or the public at large. Give it a go, comment or lurk 'til your heart is content!

"This I Love" by Guns N' Roses

Lyrics:

And now I don't know why
She wouldn't say goodbye
But then it seems that I
Had seen it in her eyes
And it might not be wise
I'd still have to try
With all the love I have inside
I can't deny

I just can't let it die
Cause her heart's just like mine
And she holds her pain inside
So if you ask me why
She wouldn't say goodbye
I know somewhere inside
There is a special light
Still shining bright
And even on the darkest night
She can't deny

So if she's somewhere near me
I hope to God she hears me
There's no one else could ever make me feel
I'm so alive
I hoped she'd never leave me
Please God you must believe me
I've searched the universe and found myself
Within' her eyes

No matter how I try
They say it's all a lie
So what's the use of my
Confessions to a crime
Of passions that won't die
In my heart

So if she's somewhere near me
I hope to God she hears me
There's no one else could ever make me feel
I'm so alive
I hoped she'd never leave me
Please God you must believe me
I've searched the universe and found myself
Within' her eyes

((Guitar Solo))

So if she's somewhere near me
I hope to God she hears me
There's no one else could ever make me feel
I'm so alive
I hoped she'd never leave me
Please God you must believe me
I've searched the universe and found myself
Within' her eyes

And now I don't know why
She wouldn't say goodbye
It just might be that I
Had seen it in her eyes
And now it seems that I
Gave up my ghost of pride
I'll never say goodbye-aaaeeeye
