Playing and singing to my granddaughter, making her giggle and smile.
Watching her drift off to slumberland. God, she's so beautiful.
When she looks you in the eye she realllly looks. Like an old soul.
I love her so much, and now I have a reason to start planning a trip to Germany.
My cat was insanely jealous.
I have a niece that I called an old soul when she was a baby. She was just a tiny thing in a "bouncy seat", but she'd look at you like she knew everything about you already!
Both of my nieces and my sister came over today, which is what made me happy.
I had lots of quality time with my other niece-playing piano (just a few notes-I can't play but could plunk out what she asked me to-she can make up original melodies, which I never could, and she's a lovely singer), and talking to her while she drew me a picture.
I'd be happy to spend every day with them. They go back to school Tuesday.

I had the best donut ever today! God it's hard to find a good donut, but I finally found a spot that doesn't make 'em all greasy. I predict gaining 10 pounds in the near future.
We finally got Krispy Kremes up here several years ago, and then they closed all of them!
But it's just as well, as I'm supposed to be eating low-fat. I have found Kemps fat free frozen yogurt, which to me tastes as good as regular ice cream, so I can still get my sugar fix.

Lot's of crazies here too ...lol
Damn ! Why do my emoticons only work some of the time ?
I don't know about the emoticons, but I've had trouble when I've tried to change font size, color, style or do bold type on here.

I'm not Canadian, but I'm to the point where I wish I was. The people in this country (US) are freaking me out! If I had the money, I'd move there, ay.
BTW-I love the movie "Canadian Bacon". It's hillarious.

I wanted to go to Playing For Change when I heard they'll be here in Nov. But by the time they add fees it was almost $50/ticket. I can't afford that.

5 is very difficult... For some reason this thread sparked a memory from the summer of 1982... when the local rock station DJ was going off because he had the "new Robert Plant solo album in my hands and at 4:00 o'clock I'm going to play you not one, but TWO tracks from it." At four he told us the album was titled Pictures At Eleven and proceeded to play Burning Down One Side and Moonlight In Samosa...
It was during Samosa that I knew Robert would be just fine on his own. It was a bittersweet moment... you know the guy is going to do well on his own... but you also are acknowledging the fact that Zeppelin really are over...
Sorry... got a bit off on a different tangent... anyway... five songs from solo Plant that never fail to move me... no order in particular...
Big Log... just perfect
Moonlight In Samosa... ummm, just perfect... again...
Come Into My Life... 1993 and still perfect...
The Greatest Gift... do you sense a trend here?
Great Spirit... ah yes... Great Spirit come... Great Spirit come...
I am always torn with Big Log: part of me LOVES Robert's vocals, and another part HATES the drum machine clap. Sometimes I put it on & have to turn it off because the clap makes me want to SCREAM! Wouldn't it be great if someday music is released in a form that you could edit on your computer? They could have a default version (the arrangement the artist chooses to release) on the discs to protect copyright. I would definitely take that out of Big Log. And the little "click-click" in Ship of Fools. I could take all the screechy backing vocals and sloppy horn parts off my Bobby Darin cds. I wouldn't have given Raising Sand away, if I could have taken Al... Ok, everybody pile on-I asked for it!

Hi:
Is this thread just for discussing movies in theaters now, or for movies we like in general
(I haven't gone to a movie theater for a long time)?
Thanks.

I guess I'm looking at this from a different time perspective. To me and my friends, Bobby Darin was what the Beatles (and all the bands who followed in their wake) saved us from!
Darin did a lot besides pop (Splish Splash) & swing (Mack the Knife). My favorite Darin cd is Songs From Big Sur (a complilation but it plays like an album). It's all songs from later in his career, all that he wrote, and they dealt with issues that were controversial at the time. But his fan base didn't want him to do that kind of material exclusively (Stairway anyone?), so in order to keep performing live, he settled for doing a mix of his hits and the later material.
P.S. Ahmet Ergetun loved Darin too.
