Shkhara
Shkhara (Georgian: შხარა), is the highest point in the nation of Georgia. Located in the Svaneti region along the Russian frontier, Shkhara lies 88 kilometres (55 mi) north of the city of Kutaisi, Georgia's second largest city. The summit lies in the central part of the Greater Caucasus Mountain Range, to the south-east of Mount Elbrus, Europe's highest mountain. Shkhara is the third highest peak in the Caucasus, just behind Dykh-Tau.
Shkhara is the high point and the eastern anchor of a massif known as the Bezingi (or Bezengi) Wall, a 12 kilometres (7 mi) long ridge. It is a large, steep peak in a heavily glaciated region, and presents serious challenges to mountaineers. Its north face (on the Russian side) is 1,500 metres (4,900 ft) high and contains several classic difficult routes. The significant subsummit Shkhara West, 5,068 m (16,627 ft), is a climbing objective in its own right, and a traverse of the entire Bezingi Wall is considered "Europe's longest, most arduous, and most committing expedition."

Gee Angel
by: SugarI bought a set of wings that I couldn't use
I bought them in a store on the avenue
I didn't mean to spend all the cash I had
The second that I saw them I wanted them bad
When I got home and I tried them on
I noticed that the wingspan was way too long
I couldn't take them back there was no return
I should've gotten more I was feelin' burned
Gee Angel won't you take these back?
Gee Angel, Gee Angel I need some slack
There's nothin' in this world that I'd rather do
Then buy a set of wings and fly away with you
Climbed up the mountain observed the view
But Angel wouldn't say what I had to do
Then Angel flew away and left me standin' there
I knew I couldn't fly but I didn't care
Oh Gee Angel won't you take these back?
Oh Gee Angel, Gee Angel please come back
There's nothin' in this world that I'd wouldn't do
I'll buy a set of wings just to be with you
There's nothin' in this world that I'd rather do
Then buy a set of wings and fly away with you
There's nothin' in this world that I'd couldn't do
