Here's the thing with music- I don't really listen to it. And when I do it tends to be something not remotely current. What's worse is that I listen to the same song- over and over and over- till everyone around me has had enough of the song to last a few lifetimes. I find though, that it jars to skip form one song to another- even if it's the same singer or genre. Anyway, today I was listening to Raphael by Carla Bruni- it's in French and sounds very like a hazy stream. And then I listened to Castles in the Air by Don McLean. Apologies, but I feel that the song simply exemplifies Rhett Butler at the end of Gone With the Wind- which, undoubtedly, is part of it's charm. And that is all I shall listen to for the rest of the year. |
And here I go commenting on my own blog- I notice that there is somebody visiting from Hong Kong. How lovely that sounds!
