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.
Not exactly environmentally friendly...... Line the base of your oven with a sheet of aluminium foil. If you keep a tray there to catch spills and overflows, line the tray with aluminium foil instead. It's much easier to throw away a sheet of foil (once it's been spilled on a few dozen times), than it is to scrub off baked on spillovers.
You all know the ice cream company? Very expensive ice cream, which I recently discovered in small tubs at my local supermarket. I'd heard about Salted Caramel ice cream, with some bloggers raving about it, so when I saw the Haagen-Dazs tubs on sale for only $5 I bought some. I loved it! Fabulous stuff. Just the right amount of salted caramel streams to counteract the sweet ice cream. I would have rated it five stars. But just lately, I have been disappointed with the product containing far too much of the salted caramel and my rating now would be only one star. I went to the website and clicked on "contact us" to let them know I was no longer happy. The link popped up with an address to "General Mills" which I then clicked on only to find a small popup informing me they were "offline". Just because it is past regular business hours or permanently? Who knows. So I'm airing my grievance here instead. If this results in fewer sales of their Sa
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. :)

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.
