Quote (ImAFoolAndImLaughing @ May 16 2006, 12:23) | I just enjoy Mike's music, and know from my own experience that, sometimes, the emotional impact of music or art can be ruined by too much analysis, especially when that analysis takes the form of a debate on whether "Mike's piano sounds are c**p or not" - Why not just enjoy the sounds? |
My thoughts, as well, Tony. I have to admit that although I've always enjoyed L+S, I hadn't given "Blackbird" proper consideration, before now. It really is quite beautiful, isn't it? Heartbreaking, even. To me, it seems reminiscent of "Jungle Gardenia", and "Daydream" (at least, in the mood it evokes), and precursive of MOTS. At the same time, it treads close to my limit for piano tolerance. But that's my own bugaboo and no fault of MO's.
-------------- "I'm no physicist, but technically couldn't Mike both be with the horse and be flying through space at the same time? (On account of the earth's orbit around the Sun and all that). So it seems he never had to make the choice after all. I bet he's kicking himself now." - clotty
