"SUPERSTITION" Traditional Cache

Placed in time for your caching pleasure on FRIDAY THE 13TH! 

I managed to find one more spot in the area to stash a cache so here you go! I believe in 'karma' but I am not 'very superstitious'.......mirrors break, ladders are walked under and around, stepping on sidewalk cracks never broke anyone's back, and BLACK CATS ARE BEAUTIFUL..........

However, if you encounter this species of black cat in your travels, you better be ready to run.....or at least outrun the person you are with !!

BYOP, NO SWAG, STEALTH REQUIRED

and

'GOOD LUCK' heh heh!

Oh right...SUPERSTITION is a song by Stevie Wonder!   

Superstition” was a pivotal shift not only in Stevie Wonder’s career, but also in popular black music. The song in some ways represents the end of the Civil Rights Movement and the “sound of integration” Motown was providing. As the Black Power Movement was gaining steam, soul and funk music was about to become the predominate form of black musical expression, and “Superstition” represents the beginning of that shift.

“Superstition” is Stevie Wonder’s lead single from his fifteenth album, Talking Book.

The song topped the Billboard Hot 100 and Billboard’s Hot Soul Singles chart in January of 1973, and was certified Gold in the UK.

• What has Stevie Wonder said about the song?

  I think that the reason that I talked about being superstitious is because I really didn’t believe in it. I didn’t believe in the different things that people say about breaking glasses or the number 13 is bad luck, and all those various things. And to those, I said, ‘When you believe in things you don’t understand, then you suffer.’
  —Stevie on NPR

   

• What does "13 month old baby, broke the looking glass, 7 years bad luck" mean?

  This line contains two unlucky omens:

  • the baby was thirteen months old, which is considered an extremely unlucky number in Western Culture
  • this already-unlucky baby also broke a mirror, which is believed to cause seven years of bad luck to the breaker.

[Verse 1]
Very superstitious
Writing's on the wall
Very superstitious
Ladder's about to fall
Thirteen month old baby
Broke the looking glass
Seven years of bad luck
The good things in your past

[Chorus]
When you believe in things
That you don't understand
Then you suffer
Superstition ain't the way

[Verse 2]
Very superstitious
Wash your face and hands
Rid me of the problem
Do all that you can
Keep me in a daydream
Keep me going strong
You don't want to save me
Sad is my song

[Chorus]
When you believe in things
That you don't understand
Then you suffer
Superstition ain't the way

[Verse 3]
Very superstitious
Nothing more to say
Very superstitious
The devil's on his way
Thirteen month old baby
Broke the looking glass
Seven years of bad luck
Good things in your past

[Chorus]
When you believe in things
That you don't understand
Then you suffer
Superstition ain't the way
No, no, no
