Howard, they would have been 7 (Christmas 2001). They both looked quite confident there singing and looked like they were having fun. I guess when you are doing what you love, singing, it all comes together naturally. It looked too cute when Lisa realized she needed to twirl and started to twirl.

That will be great Jacki. Looking forward to your blog of poems. Mona and Lisa are going to be very lucky to get your Poetry Gift Booklet. I too will be looking for ways to express creativity more in my life. I got a new Digital Piano from Costco just been sitting there waiting for me.

Thanks Howard. I think when doing a poem about MLT, it comes easier because of the passion and positive energy they bring out in me. If it was about anything else, I think I would be stuck after the first line.

Member26/12/2018 at 23:55 in reply to: Is this where I ask fellow fans and not Mona and Lisa?Hi Marian. I haven’t heard of Depeche Mode mentioned in quite some time. My younger sister was a huge Depeche Mode fan, and I think was all she listened to for a while. Nice sounds for sure. She will be happy to hear there is a fellow Depeche Mode fan. In the 80’s I remember Duran Duran was huge too. They are one of the few 80’s bands I enjoyed. I was heavily into ACDC in those days, but I enjoyed a lot of the Duran Duran stuff then.
Isn’t MonaLisa Twins a breath of fresh air for awesome music these days!!!

Member26/12/2018 at 23:15 in reply to: I listened to a new album by a popular modern groupYou’re right Howard, Coke would’t be my first choice, unless that is all there was in a panic within reaching distance. My thing would be more a Ginger Ale, Winter Ale, or just a piping hot black tea. Thanks for the video. Coke and Santa are certainly icons of commercialization, which is the problem when the focus is on the commercialization of music or art, creativity is lost, and mediocrity prevail.

I just took a yonder to the current Top 100 Billboard and listened to a sample of what the record labels are pushing, and it is akin to going to a bad Asian fusion restaurant where they use the same sauce for everything. Everything kind of tastes the same and after a while you start feeling a little whoozy and need a coke or beer to wash away that bad after taste. As you say there are a lot of good stuff, old and new out there, but it just gets buried in all the noise.
For me in the 90’s I enjoyed sounds from bands like U2 and Sheryl Crow, before I abandoned modern music and got into classical music with a passion. Most of what was coming out of the modern pop stations just all sounded the same and I lost interest in pop rock music, unless it was classic 60s or 70s rock. When I discovered MonaLisa Twins and returned to modern rock/pop music, it was a breath of fresh air for sure. First time I heard Orange and the studio work they talked about, immediately reminded me of albums like Pet Sounds, Sargent Peppers, Seventh Sojourn, Wish You Were Here, Even in the Quietest Moments (it was nice having an older brother who bought a lot of awesome albums) that had artistry in creating diverse great music. The Wide Wide Wide Land, All About Falling in Love, I don’t Know Birds That Well, Nothings In Vain, Sweet Lorraine, Count on Me, Club 27, Still a Friend of Mine…are modern pop/rock songs I can love again.

That was the cutest and grooviest Christmas gift I’ve seen in a long time. You are a band of one. Thank you for brightening my day.
Jung
Happiest of Christmas wishes to you.
