The other day I posted my response to the Music Meme, and referred to some of my selections as "old music", which generated This response ...
Old music???? Last week I was listening to "Gondoliers" and "Iolanthe". 'Take a Pair of Sparkling Eyes' vs 'Never Faint Heart Won Fair Lady'. And 5.7GB on the ol' iPod, with 12 to go.
Young'ins!
Cheers JMH
To which I replied ...
JMH -- Don't wave your iPod at me and then sneer "Young'ins!", dude! In FACT ... why don't you 'take the quiz' and send the list to me - I'll post it for you.
Ladies and Gents, and any others hanging around, I give you the music of JMH ... *fanfare and flourishes*
Total Volume of Music: 5.72GB in my iTunes collection, although I would claim 50% more if I could get my old stuff out of storage.
Last CD bought: Purchased "Iolanthe" and "Gondoliers" (Gilbert & Sullivan) at the same time 2 weeks ago.
Top 5 Tunes I Listen To A Lot, or Mean A Lot To Me: a. "Soldiers of the Queen" marchpast of Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians); b. "God Save the Queen" generally makes me stand to attention; c. "O Canada" Ditto; d. "Tannhauser" 3 hours of sing-along music; Yes, I was around when the Beatles started up, but Lennon/McCartney/et al had nothing on Wagner; Moreso with any current/pop stuff. e. "Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah"- Charlotte Church, London Welsh Men's Choir and LSO. |
