"I see music as fluid architecture." - Joni Mitchell, "The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls." - Pablo Picasso, Music curls In the stone shells Of the arches- and rings Their stone bells., Tra-la-la!
There were two videos shot for this tune. I like them both, but the first one listed wins by a nose. I am posting both – benevolent as ever – so you can make your own mind up, should you be inclined to. The music feels just as brand new to me now, as it did for me back then. I recall taping it off a radio cassette around the size of a school bus, several times on the run, so as to hear in on a loop.
I was quite partial to a bit of Throbbing Gristle back in the eighties.

At first I was all like, “What is this nonsense”?, and then, not wanting to be one of those people who doesn’t experience new things, I clicked on the videos. And, you know what? I remembered the little person lady in the video which, upon my remembrance, magically transported me back to another time and place where the other children were cruel to me and the future was spread out at my feet like an overturned vat of used fast food cooking oil.
Thank you

I’m pleased to have been of such service to you President and Founder. These things are meant to fry us…try us I mean.
‘Little person lady‘ – I like this. There’s a lot going on in there and you have summed it up well I feel.

Interesting to play both video’s in sync and let them compete for my eye. Instrumental violence was hard not to watch. Overall, another good time on the cloud! 😀

What sacrilege is thus!? How dare you young maiden; the willful promotion of such vicious, malicious destruction of the very instruments of freedom, of art set to a monotonous blasphemous melody yet! I’m saddened, I’m hurt, I’m distraught, but mostly I’m pained by the obliteration of the violin. I wished to play the violin when I was but a child, you know. But my parents, in all of their godlike wisdom, said no. And so it came to be, for the next several decades all I learned to play was the radio, AM at that. Later, in my adult life, I learned to play the iPod, and I might say I’m quite good at it. I should play it for you sometime.
Incidentally, I apologize for the late coming, but I’m quite limited as to where I can play videos, particularly obnoxious annoying ones. Not that I find these annoying, mind you, but just so you know of my tardy.

You hated it didn’t you? Hahahahaha. Tis oft we are deprived the instrument of choice as children. I yearned for the drums, but was informed that “Girls don’t play the drums, it is a boy’s instrument“. I feel I must at this point say – “!!!!!!!!!” Tsk. I can perhaps ease you pain so far as playing the violin goes Peter, for I did play the violin when a child, and then moved onto the viola, and then the oboe. The noise they all produce is akin to that I suspect would be heard were some poor chap to have his ‘chap’ passed through a mangle. The cacophony which ensues whilst learning, kills flat all dreams of wowing the crowds with a spot of Rachmaninoff of an evening I can tell you. Also, playing the oboe makes one look like a giant tit, which didn’t help. When older I dabbled with the Mandola, which sits in dust these days, but does have a pleasant sound when played well. So they tell me laughs.
“Incidentally, I apologize for the late coming” – your dinner is in the dog sir.
