RE: Three Tune Tuesday - Song in the key of Acoustic riffs

in Music2 years ago

Sometimes it is best to leave certain things to the professional

Nobody is born professional XP

Ergh love/hate relationship with Stairway to Heaven. Amazingly put together song, but listening to it causes me physical pain and moreso after having to take my younger sister through the children's section in a major cemetery looking for her best friend and there was a beautiful sculpture in the middle of it and guess what it was called x_x

Simon and Garfunkel and Pink Floyd are both good picks. As album cover art I think Dark Side of the Moon is still pretty hard to beat XD

Abba did get some play while growing up mostly at my aunty's place (she still loves Abba to this day XD), my most recent brush with it in excess was pre-kids (so still a while back, damn I'm old x_x) when J's mum was inviting us to go see this musical called Dancing Queen with her and J's sister. She hadn't been expecting us to want to come as while she knew we liked plays and musicals, she also knew we weren't huge on Abba (unlike her and her daughter XD) and was thus somewhat astonished when J enthusiastically agreed to go along and I was like yeh okay whatever I'm easy.

Turned out J had hyperfixated on the word "Queen" and somehow gotten into his head that we were going to a Queen musical.

Sort:  

Sorry for the delay. Life is hectic, as always.

Pink Floyd was always competing for the silence with Abba in my house. They are both the soundtrack to my childhood. I still listen and feel the nostalgia,

The Darkside of the moon was a great cover and I remember one year my mother created it as a patchwork quilt for my brother. I think he took it with him when he moved to the US.

Funny about J thinking he was going to Queen. I hope he wasn't too disappointed.

Manage the stuff you can control and don't apologise for the stuff you can't. Prioties and all.

He wasn't disappointed, just initially confused, and I was absolutely merciless about it during and afterwards especially when he explained his thought process (which earned even more merciless teasing). We had a great time XD
