    I often think of a song, then forget it, kinda frustrating.
    But this came at 145 in the morning clear as a bell even the moment that I first heard it.

    It stands as a warning to those of a impetuous and jealous mind.

    This is far more the style it was written in. Or what we would have heard when first presented.

    Me Too! But there's a fact about the song that makes me feel ancient and soo behind the times: It's thirty years old.

    Sia's Chandelier which just blows me away 'cause it's that good is 7 years old.

    So fast old, so slow shmart. Speaking of only myself.

    Received classical music instruction here in good old Seattle for two plus years. I learned a heck of a lot and classical voice training is said to be the smart way to start singing lessons. It probably is.

    All the same I can poke fun at classical music with the best of them. Classically centered musicians can be snooty or a bit snooty. But, personally speaking they are no higher on the totem pole than other musicians.

    After a show at the very long defunked "Candy company"
    we went to the home of a friend, talked and sang songs all night then slept on the floor till noon.

    This is the song he sang that I remember.

    Martha & The Vandellas - Dancing In The Streets



    Once upon a time I thought Carole King wrote this song. Wrong. Someone thought that we'd be dancing in the streets after the Rightists were vanquished. Alas, we are nearly dancing in concentration camps because the Rightists are taking over. The Hippie thing scared the living shite out of the Establishment. Hence the Rightist revolution.
