Watched the Yellow Submarine over the weekend with my kids.  They loved it!  They'd heard many of the songs already & one of their favorites has always been the title track.


But now when the get mad at me I'm not just a mean dad, I'm a Blue Meanie Dad.

OMGWTF! BOS4 "Here Comes My Baby".  written by Cat Stevens, yes?

I think so!  TANC: I was just watching a live performance of this on YouTube last week.  Someone had uploaded a bunch of great Association videos and so I scrolled through the rest of his offerings.  Fab time-killer.

hit submit too soon, also meant to point out that "All You Need Is Love" is another song where the artist reprises a bit of an earlier tune towards the end.

That is a triumph on so many levels.

Nothing like a little Tuesday Afternoon early on a Monday morning.

fwiw, driving east on 580 over the Dublin grade this morning saw one of the best sunrises ever.  Looked more like a sunset, bright red/orange sun, rosy background with the hills in silhouette.  Hope it portends good things.

What surprises me about those figures is that Janis came in dead last, behind not only the Beatles, but Strawberry Alarmclock and the Tremeloes. Def. not a Bay area voting pool there, I guess.
