i saw pf first after Umma Gumma came out. cost $1.50. Saw at Cleveland statium on Animals tour and remember the sheep parachutes and pig with lazer eyes and huge round screen. glad they used sll that because they would be boring to watch without the toys. Last time i saw them was in support of the Division Bell album. Too bad their founder Syd Barrett foundered and lost it with his mental illness, kind of like Peter Green, the founder of Fleetwood Mac.

Indeed ladies, Pink Floyd is the best music . I just love all of their albums. Every time I am listening to one album, I am finding it new again to me!

I always loved the bass line in Broken Wings - I love simple melodic - when warranted

 

And without the other beautiful song of Mr. Mister - a song that's uses a latin phrase from the Catholic mass of all things

@Cyndee

I just sent this version to our band - we do 75 Beatles songs but not this one and our lead guitarist could nail this and I've always wanted to be Tal Wickenfeld from the first moment I saw her play with Beck at the Crossroads Festival and now I can try to learn one of her bass parts (a challenge I want to attempt)....

 

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU... You are an amazing woman.....

@Sara_Leighanne I can't thank you enough for FaceApp - the hair style is exactly how I would love my hair and I am working hard to find a wig - maybe some day with extensions I can have the look and the make up is something for me to strive for. I look my niece only prettier if I don't say so myself (at least in the app).

just listened to one of my songs that was written for a play I wrote - telling the struggles of entertainers on the road and could as easily be about entertainers today....

Beautiful.  A melancholy tune where the fiddle really adds to the feeling.

@Jani, this is Maria Callas on her last concert. My mom adored her and once, when Miss Callas was in Athens for Onassis, she invited my mommy for afternoon tea.

 

I remember very well that day my mom did not take me with her, she said that she was invited a lone but I do know (I have the feeling) that I wasn't there, because I was different.

She has a beautiful voice.  Admittedly I am not a huge fan of listening to classical vocals but when I can watch the singer it is very enjoyable.  I suppose it has to do with not understanding the language.  Before the pandemic closed theaters, my local independent showed Pavarotti, the film by Ron Howard. It was very good!  If you have the opportunity to see it, please do.  I think you will enjoy it. 

 

Thank you for sharing!

Pretty weird scene about an hour in with the animals on stage and singing happy birthday.  Their lyrics seemed to be upbeat! 
cool!

I woke up this morning and looked at the most recent FaceApp of what I might look right had I been born a girl and I mentioned it looks something like my brother's oldest daughter, only prettier. And what popped into my head was The Everly Brothers "Dream" and that is what I'm dreaming of looking like (even the hair type they inserted is exactly how I pictured it). I can dream for now but am striving through make up, hair growth and styling/coloring and extensions and HRT to become the photo I have to dream about.

Thank you @Sara_Leighanne so much for the app (again) it has made my week.

 

And I believe Jani likes Cathy's Clown - so here is a medley.

 

The Everly's were the first ones I copied singing at the age of.....wait for it.... 5 years old. I was told back then I sounded like them...which sounds pretty weird now that I think of it - that I sounded like both of them????

Thanks for that @Shay.  I was six when that song was released.  What a rush it was.  Their influence was immense.

      What is relaxation to you? Nature? Movie? Reading? Cuddling with a pet? Music?

      Having just a normal emotional day.

      AMUSEMENT The feeling when you encounter something silly, ironic, witty, or absurd, which makes you laugh. You have the urge to be playful and share the joke with others. Similar words: Mirth Amusement is the emotional reaction to humor. This can be something that is intended to be humorous, like when someone tells a good joke or when a friend dresses up in a ridiculous costume. But it can also be something that you find funny that was not intended to be humorous, like when you read a sign with a spelling error that turns it into an ironic pun. For millennia, philosophers and scholars have been attempting to explain what exactly it is that makes something funny. This has led to several different theories. Nowadays, the most widely accepted one is the Incongruity Theory, which states that something is amusing if it violates our standards of how things are supposed to be. For example, Charlie Chaplin-style slapstick is funny because it violates our norms of competence and proper conduct, while Monty Python-style absurdity is funny because it violates reason and logic. However, not every standard or norm violation is necessarily funny. Violations can also evoke confusion, indignation, or shock. An important condition for amusement is that there is a certain psychological distance to the violation. One of the ways to achieve this is captured by the statement ‘comedy is tragedy plus time’. A dreadful mistake today may become a funny story a year from now. But it can also be distant in other ways, for instance, because it happened to someone you do not know, or because it happens in fiction instead of in real life. Amusement also needs a safe and relaxed environment: people who are relaxed and among friends are much more likely to feel amused by something. A violation and sufficient psychological distance are the basic ingredients for amusement, but what any one person find funny will depend on their taste and sense of humor. There are dozens of ‘humor genres’, such as observational comedy, deadpan, toilet humor, and black comedy. Amusement is contagious: in groups, people are more prone to be amused and express their amusement more overtly. People are more likely to share amusement when they are with friends or like-minded people. For these reasons, amusement is often considered a social emotion. It encourages people to engage in social interactions and it promotes social bonding. Many people consider amusement to be good for the body and the soul. By the end of the 20th century, humor and laughter were considered important for mental and physical health, even by psychoneuroimmunology researchers who suggested that emotions influenced immunity. This precipitated the ‘humor and health movement’ among health care providers who believed that humor and laughter help speed recovery, including in patients suffering from cancer1). However, the evidence for health benefits of humor and laughter is less conclusive than commonly believed2. Amusement is a frequent target of regulation: we down-regulate it by shifting our attention to avoid inappropriate laughter, or up-regulate it by focusing on a humorous aspect of a negative situation. Interestingly, amusement that is purposefully up-regulated has been found to have the same beneficial physical and psychological effects as the naturally experienced emotion. Amusement has a few clear expressions that emerge depending on the intensity of the emotion. When people are mildly amused, they tend to smile or chuckle. When amusement intensifies, people laugh out loud and tilt or bob their head. The most extreme bouts of amusement may be accompanied by uncontrollable laughter, tears, and rolling on the floor. Most cultures welcome and endorse amusement. Many people even consider a ‘good sense of humor’ as one of the most desirable characteristics in a partner. At the same time, most cultures have (implicit) rules about what is the right time and place for amusement. For example, displays of amusement may be deemed inappropriate in situations that demand seriousness or solemness, such as at work or during religious rituals.

      Love it! This is great news. We need more of this to combat the excessive hate-filled rhetoric and misinformation. 👍

      The experience was the same for me @April Marie. I slept much deeper and I woke up each morning feeling so much more restful sleeping with forms solidly in place. For me, wearing breast forms at night started when before I was a teenager. I had no access up to modern breast forms and certainly no way to buy mastectomy bras back then. I wore a basic bra my mom had put in a donation box and two pairs of soft cotton socks. I have some crazy memories of things I did in my youth to combat my GD but regardless, these makeshift concoctions helped me work through it all.   All My Best, Susan R🌷

      Colorado isn't exactly a Republican place, and won't become one anytime soon.  I think those folks might be better off not spending their time playing Don Quixote.    We certainly have our share of California "refugees" moving into where I live, so I wouldn't be surprised to start seeing Coloradans too.  I suspect the trend over the next few years will see the blue areas getting more blue and the red areas getting more red as anybody who can relocate tries to find a place where they fit better.

      Well, at least it'll be a place some folks could choose.  Options are a good thing.

      My family would have gobbled that jar up in a minute or two.  When we do have pickled herring, its usually for Christmas.  I didn't grow up with that particular dish, but I grew up in a Greek family so I like just about any kind of fish if I can get it.  However, ocean fish and freshwater fish taste so different.  We usually have more catfish and tilapia to eat than anything else.    What I can't quite get used to is the tons of cabbage my GF insists on eating.  When you live with a Russian, there is always cabbage soup.  Always.  When I first moved in with her, breakfast was "shchi" for soup and either bread or "kasha" which is a bowl of boiled buckwheat with butter and salt.  Those dishes can be made in any number of ways, some are better than others.  In the winter, it can even be salty and sour like kraut.  Not exactly sauerkraut, but packed in tubs with vinegar and salt so it keeps partially for the winter.  But I drew the line when the cabbage soup included pieces of fried snake one day.  😆
