Lee; that's true, too many don't realise they haven't learned everything they can yet, and sadly too many learn the wrong things. I find some of today's music acceptable, but not much of it. We are at the stage of "living in the past" when it comes to music we enjoy.
Didn´t know that song - we were carpenters, my Brother and I - renovating apartments (two of mine, our Mum´s). Happy times... To siblings and fun. And music! Today (ack, I´m getting old....) most is but "noise" to me ;-) But reckon music often shows how people feel. Back then happy the war is over - now fearing loss of job, prices rising, another big war etc... makes people aggressive... I like this song, thank you :-)
Iris; I haven't heard a lot of today's music, most of my playlists are from the 70s, 80s and 90s with just a few from recent years. I prefer songs that make me feel happy and the songs that are about anger or hate just don't do that for me. I was never a carpenter, I can't hammer in a nail and have it go straight!
messymimi; it's been stuck in my head for a month now and I hoped putting it here would help it 'move on', but I still have it in my head. I had a wonderful day with the twins.
I shall keep this short and sweet. Thank you! Thank You! Thank You! I am truly surprised to have received this: Laughing Horse Award from Yorkshire Pudding , also known as YP, for being the Australian Blogger of the Year. Click the link to read the nice things he said.
The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by River (that's me) and can be found here This week's words/prompts are: 1. on the run 2. belong 3. street 4. breakfast 5. tent and this image: taken by "Genius" and allowed by Val . Also Charlotte's colour of the month which is Orient Red for September.
You have fun!
ReplyDeleteJenn Jilks; oh I did! I got down on the floor and they crawled over me.
DeleteI had forgotten that song - loved it. So we are both 70!
ReplyDeleteChatty Crone; yes we are. Amazing isn't it? Where did the last 40 years disappear to?
DeleteSuch music stands the test of time.
ReplyDeleteAndrew; many early songs do, but some of the rap from these times may be forgotten as the years move on.
DeleteWe used to sing that in our elementary school music class. I will never forget it!
ReplyDeleteSteve Reed; it's a nice song that helps kids think and say nice things in my opinion.
DeleteMany humans throughout the world have much to learn...but are too dumb to realise it!
ReplyDeleteMusic today is not at good as it once was! Thanks for the reminder, River. :)

DeleteGreat song, and nice to see all the pictures.
ReplyDeleteJoanne; it is a great song with a simple message to be nice.

Deletetwins................pictures..
ReplyDeleteyellowdoggranny; I only took one picture of them sleeping right before I left. I was too busy playing with them to use the camera.
DeleteIt's been years since i've heard this. I do hope you enjoyed your day.
