The Beatles


I am a little unclear on why exactly iTunes is not featuring The Beatles. Something about Paul McCartney not agreeing with some of the contract details of iTunes...(?) Anyway, as I live in such an instant gratification world, I hop onto iTunes to download some of my favorites that have been floating through my head as I paint- only to be disappointed to find nothing with the group together. Also as I hummed and sparsely sang some of the words to Eleanor Rigby, I discovered that Dirk is not familiar with that song... We sang it in music class in 4th grade. Wonder if that would be done today... Hmmm, for some reason I highly doubt it.


Songs I want to hear over and over again lately:

-A Day In the Life

-Michelle (my Belle....)

-Blackbird

-Strawberry Fields Forever

-When I'm Sixty-Four

-Martha My Dear


while i am waiting for Apple to get it together, I am happily painting and creating to my new (as in the past year and a half) favorite favorite singer: Joanna Newsom. Her harp, flighty youthful notes make me dance and lose inhibitions and I sing Clam, Crab, Cockle, Cowrie at the top of my lungs.


listen to her song THE SPROUT & THE BEAN:
