When I was in Cuba, I kept hearing a Spanish version of the Carpenters' song about the kind of husssshh all over the world .. tonight .. etc. The Spanish version was an exact copy: "Hay un tipo de silencio sobre todo el mundo .. esta noche .." and it seemed like I couldn't turn on the radio without hearing it in 15 minutes. For some reason, whenever I run during the sunset, I always think of this song, and tonight it was going through my head on an endless loop as I skirted along Tank Hill and down through the Upper Haight.
