I’ve had several emails from  a number of sweet young ladies with many important and urgent things to discuss.

As well as items for removal -should I wish it. Frankly, I’d be thrilled down to my bootstraps if they would remove  carpet from d’house and take it to waste disposal. Heck, they can have the old wet mattresses from d…[Read more]

So Puro or Siggers posted Bowie which was SO good but I’m posting this: REM.  Mum did say (possibly being a little fried from watching too much telly)  “holy heck this sounds like Taylor.”  I dunno, but it’s the best recording of this used in anything I’ve seen though.

Aaand coz I enjoyed the show 13 Reasons… S3)

@arbutus

Not the best, but enthusiastic (singers)  and a library. Although not many people were smiling. To me, singing is smiling!  One of the soloists needed some tuition from …..Russell Crowe. Lot of people don’t like Crowe’s rendition (of anything). I did, though, even with ADR.  I’m not a huge musical fan then again it was JCSuperstar whic…[Read more]

@arbutus great to see you up and about on the Forum! I didn’t know you were in Alberta. Being as I have my secret ways I think I was in Alberta (for 2 weeks) when you were in school there.  But it was your last 2 yrs of school and I was 13-14 so….maybe not. But the Arbutus and puro line may have at least danced to the same music at the time, so…[Read more]

@XAD4 and others who love the Osprey Project in Wales. They’re closing off sections at the end of the month as they’re building a new wildlife centre. Also, Peris was very hungry!

@roger429

Hey! Sorry, what’s an “Emily Post ?”

Yeah, here, we do tag people because Syzygy might confuse people or they may not really want to read that again. Short story: mum and I share the tag. Mum’s sick a bit, so sometimes I type for myself, others I type for her. I’m doing that now. And when I DO type for mum, I always let people know…[Read more]

@pedant  hehe. Ma-mah  yelled up at me to answer this. So, I have the computer (the only thing in the house that’s not my phone I can get internet on as the school computer locks you off the internet on certain hours of the weekend. We’re permanently locked out of youtube which is damn annoying as there are 1st class lectures on philosophy and n…[Read more]

@whisht

you. Never. Miss. Anything.  (YNMA). That’s your name now, sorry, but it is. You asked for it 🙂

I love Wah-wah. Possibly boring anecdote: I had this playing really loud to a group of very sick gentlemen in the States (fiddling around with music therapy) as well as the Beatles and Merseyside groups.

The patients were blue collar…[Read more]

@roger429

Ah yes, so syzygy came from a show my son loves (and me too) called The OA. Except he had also learnt that, in astronomy, it’s an alignment of three bodies including a celestial body like the sun.

Also, practically, my son and I are both holders of the same name -and in poetry, and music, particularly during Homeric times (the music,…[Read more]

And another Voice of d’Beehive…

@pedant @whisht

For a child so busy with assignments, he sure has a lot to say, does Syzygy. Mind you, I agree: lots of music his friends listen to is similar with pulsating back beats, over- bass 16 tracks & is wholly digital with almost nothing that I would say gives the impression of natural. Certainly if the Beatles, Bowie, ELP could do…[Read more]

@Roger429  OK. I will thanks. That’s a long way from here (evening). I’m about to go & play 2 football matches one after the other. So night and evening won’t come for another 6 hours!

Action’s fine! I remember at 12 loving Buffy FOR the action. Later, there came (ahem) different elements I liked.

I really liked Eccleston’s first episode “Rose”…[Read more]

@roger429

I take your point. Agreed. But. Many of the original dr who stories actually were historical stories. At 17, I’ve seen, probably, 11 of these thru a period in ’63, ’69 with the Dr Original (Dr O not Doctor No!) & Pat Troughton.

Man, were some SO slow. I realise today, when you put a piece like Rosa up against ANY episode in the 60s and…[Read more]

Ohhhh, hip to hip. Yep, missed that. I mean I totally missed it. Awkward. I was just dancing along.

@pedant

heheheh. Blast. When you’re at parties you don’t listen to the lyrics in the way you should….

Honey Lingers? “There are monsters, there are angels. “i’m nobody’s baby”  Mum would say this is really good scansion. I think, after 17 yrs, I’m learning what that is.

“There is ice and  there is fire in every single heart….”

I like how p…[Read more]

sorry @roger429

That was for @pedant basically.

Syzygy (young one of the pair).

@pedant @roger429

I have listened to that so many times and I never thought it was smutty. I mean I have been singing the lyrics and now it’s so obvious. Proves that in writing and in music you really have to PAY ATTENTION.
