    Bach’s music is full of math in symmetry, repeating patterns separated by intervals or inverted. This visualization of his 14 Canons will show you what I mean, when his music is full of math.

    I found a few videos of Beatles and Bach music visualized that captures graphically the mathematics inherent in music. It shows the symmetry, harmony, order, and repeating patterns that perhaps Einstein got his intuition from when formulating his mathematics formula to explain how the universe works, like his General Theory of Relativity.

    Notice the symmetry and repeating patterns. These visual patterns sound so wonderful. Einstein deduced beauty from sound to patterns that is expressed in math formulas.

  • Hi John

    That’s a wonderful thing to run into other MLT fans in the wild. It hasn’t happened to me yet, but as MLT fanbase continues to grow, it will start to become a more regular occurrence. It’s a good sign of things to come.

    Hi Jurgen

    I like this version of While My Guitar Gently Weeps, and I love the video with the animation of the hand writing turning into form. When you write something, it is the opposite, form and ideas turn into script, but here the script turns to form. Thanks.

    If you click on your profile name, in the drop down menu select “timeline”. There you will see all your posts and replies from others. Also, I found if you select “comments”, it takes you to all your comments globally.

    Hope you had a great week. TGIF, I wonder what Mona and Lisa have in store for us tomorrow!

    Hi David

    I also find the music that stand out and moves me the most are the sad, melancholic, or hauntingly beautiful ones. These songs, the good ones while sad, has a longing beauty behind them that has the effect of lifting me up. The 3 songs you mentioned are like that, while sad, it’s beauty consoles. MLT’s “Close To You” while sad has so much longing beauty, I swelled with tears when I first heard it driving to work one morning, but they were cathartic tears that lifted me up. “Goodbye past, is it true that the good things don’t last”. Sad but true, but expressed in the most beautiful and moving way.

    Hi JP

    Thanks for sharing your heartwarming and beautiful story. I am so glad Marlo got through those tough times and is doing well. Count On Me is such a moving and powerful song about being there for the ones you love, and being able to count on someone no matter what. It is the most precious gift in the world to have someone you can count your life on. Marlo is so lucky to have you!

    Another song that Mona and Lisa covered, that is an incredibly beautiful love song that captures the essence of loving and being there for someone is Bob Dylan’s “It Aint Me Babe”. After many decades of relationships, this song certainly says it all.

    You say you’re lookin’ for someone

    Never weak but always strong

    To protect you and defend you

    Whether you are right or wrong

    You say you’re lookin’ for someone

    Who’ll promise never to part

    Someone to die for you and more

    Hi Jurgen

    I love that Schubert quote! And all so eloquently stated about how music can transport you to a fond place in memory or a wonderful place of imagination. I can relate to all of that completely, as so many times I hear a song I haven’t heard in a long time, and I feel volumes of emotions from a specific time or memory long forgotten. Another strange effect music has on me, especially 60s music, is the nostalgia I feel for that time, a really deja vu kind of feeling of the 60s times. Songs like Time of The Season, San Francisco for example, but the strange thing is I was only a toddler in the 60s. I never experienced those things first hand, yet the feelings and nostalgic feeling of the 60s is so vivid. I think when a song is masterfully written, it transports you to the mental state of the composer! MAGIC!

    Hi Chris

    She is a great bass player and enjoyed the jazz piano and keyboard work. A really easy going feel to it and wonderful musicianship. Thanks for sharing it.

    David, what an amazing story about how that song came together. Some real cosmic alignment going on there with the wallet for sure. I didn’t know it is two songs they put together, Age of Aquarius and Let the Sunshine In. The effect worked together magically.

    Tim,

    Yeah great song, one of my faves from the 60s. When the song feels so good and you are liking it, at the “let the sunshine in…” part they take it yet to another level and the emotions soar! Great video too!

    Hi Tim

    As the guy says at the end “NIIIICE!!!”. Yeah they knocked it out of the ball park, love it. The vocals were great too. Thanks for sharing it, really enjoyed it.

    If Mona and Lisa are thinking of covering another Beach Boys song, Sloop John B would be my vote! Their harmonies would do pure magic justice to this.

    Hi David

    Great idea, it would be awesome to meet up one day. This MLT Community has brought together so many wonderful people, it certainly would be exhilarating to share our passion for MLT and music in person. And if people took pictures when they meet and post it at the Club, wouldn’t that be cool. I hope we can all get to do that!

    Hi Jacki

    What a fascinating video, thanks. I can imagine when that bell goes off and you are in the tower next to it, your whole body would vibrate to those bells. Me and MJ almost made it to Ottawa back in 2019 just before covid, was in Montreal to do a cruise, and just ran out of time unfortunately. It’s one of the places In Canada I want to see and visit the parliament building. Will call you up when we make it out that way. Fun fact, my close cousin, Yonah Martin, whom I introduced to the Beach Boys when we were kids is a Senator and is often in Ottawa. The first Korean Canadian in Parliament.
