Well, I know that somewheres else on here, I’ve answered or at least replied before but for the sake of Jung’s topic, here, I’ll repeat, more or less what I had said elsewhere on here… Aside from hearing them on the radio at night or and I think my late Mom might have had a few in her record collection, I was introduced to Beatles, primarily in part Thanks to my 2nd oldest brother’s Grade 5 teacher who was a Beatles fan and I recall going to a concert at the public school where her class ( which my 2nd oldest brother was in ), I was in Grade 2 respectively , and it was either a nightime concert where I was with Mom, or it was daytime, whichever it was, they performed -sung a whole whackload of Beatles songs….obviously it made an impact/impression on me, to still be able to recall that ….????????

Hi there Bill, you may/may not be aware of this fact but Dusty Springfield’s older brother wrote a few of the Seekers big hits… ” Georgy- Girl”, ” I Know I’ll Never Find Another You”, and some other songs he wrote that they had recorded during their career…Sad news to hear and she had a lovely, distinctive voice, RIP Judith ☮

I thought Joni Mithcell’s recent health issues prevented her from singing, or at least limiting her capabilities or gas she fully recovered, I must of been under a rock where she’s concerned because last time I saw/read, her health was poorly and could not sing at tge time…. but I’m happy she continues on best she can …

Ok, here I go….
It’s a Glass Tiger Parody song, as I know most of their songs off by heart… not a parody I did from their songs I did years ago on cassette tape, but a new parody one, for this topic here….
(To the Tune of their ” My Song ” )

“My Short Term Memory “
And so I keep on trying
It just doesn’t come
My late Mom did up memory exercises for me
I still came up with none
Chorus :
My Short Term Memory
Doesn’t do much for me
Boohoo,
I trust better my Long Term,
It’s True
My Short Memory
Why do you make it impossible for me but not for you
V2 :
And so I keep on trying
With luck sometimes and then
It starts all over
I forget momentarily
What I wanted get or think of
Got lost again
Go back to Chorus
Fade Out …
Ohhhhhhhh, Whoaaaaaaah
Come back , even for awhile ….
I probably screwed up on that…but I tried… as I’ve said I do better at singing the song parodies while listening to originals as opposed to writing them down…lol..just easier for me but writing poetry, that’s a different thing, that is natural for me too,but I don’t always have something on hand to write/type the words and I’ve lost some potential poetry as a result…lol or trying to save them at library on their public computers at the time,back in the day, time was up on my computers use, lost poem, couldn’t save it…. forgot what the poem was by the time I got home….to write it down….

Good topic idea…lol…I’ve done this in my gead with MLT, Glass Tiger, etc and just abiut every other song I like…I’ll start thinking of different lyrics in my head and fisrt thing you know…I’m singing my version…lol ….only the problem is….I’ve never thought to write anything down…it ‘s all spur/spontaneous at the moment so, in a way that’s a challenge for me…I’d have to hear the song with one device, then record myself singing it before I could write anything down and/or…have original lyrics in front of me, and sing along as I read them and coneup with parodying them…lol…but…give me time….I could take a stab at this…do you mean a particular MLT song or any MlT song or non-MLT song ?!….

Good replies everyone, yes Jung, I used to enjoy watching those Hinterland TV commercials, Goid jokes Tom, and I too, still call it the Skydome ( my fave Canadian band,Glass Tiger and whom I also know personally, met them back in 1988-89 ish, were the first band to perform at Skydive, I gave it on VHS tape …lol… )
I had a nice/enjoyable Canada Day this year, I went out to a local area neighborhood Canada Day Festivities, where I saw some Indigenous Throat Singing, Traditional Hoop Dancing being performed on main stage plus some other local area entertainers/bands, it was crowded, but nothing like the insanity/chaoticness that downtown would of been m and I wanted to avoided downtown anyways, and prefer going to this local area neighborhood version of Canada Day Festivities instead…it was great to see /be at an outdoor event once again after 2 years of not being able to…I still wore my mask as did others but some didn’t as it’s an option now but some places still require you to wear one. Here are a couple photos of me in my Canuck Pride of gear …

MLT Music is an already a Given therefore for je what else comes to mind for this topic , is anything by Dusty Springfield, Mamas and Papas, Glass Tiger, Reba McEntire, Vince Gill, , etc that are upbeat , fun lyrics, and I feel good and dance and sing along to, that defines my song choices of Hope… ????????

Thankyou Diana, re: my gift of poetry …it does come naturally for me….????????
