Not a Self-Portrait

I do not look like that guy on the page.

I don't even know him, to be honest with you. But I'm sure he's very nice.

  2. I used to have a boss that constantly whistled "Sara".

  3. I believe that whistling is the only way to truly appreciate a great song. When you hear a great song whistled, you are getting as close as you can to experiencing that song as the composer experienced it during the creative process. Whistling is without a doubt, the highest form of music appreciation.

  4. Have any of you ever tried to whistle the Sax solo in the song "The heat is on" ? That is a difficult section. I think it might be easier to play it on a Saxophone than whistle it. "Bloop bloop bloop bloop bloop, bloop bloop bloop bloop bloop. Bloop bloop bloop bloop bloop, bloop bloop bloop bloop". That is a difficult piece of music! Speaking of Saxophones what do you guys think of the song "New York's alright if you like Saxophones" ?

  5. We seem to be getting off topic here. What we are discussing is music that fills us with rage. There was nothing about whistling or Saxophones in this post. In my own experience I find that music I like makes me very angry at my family, especially my parents. I'm not sure why. can anyone relate to this? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

  6. The Saxophone was invented by the Belgian instrument designer Adolphe Sax in 1846. I often wonder how Mr. Sax would have felt about his instrument had he lived to hear the Sax solo in 'Foreigner's' song "Urgent".

  9. Alice sure was a vision when she got dressed up for "The Meat Cutter's Ball".

    Anonymous- Without Sam there is no Alice.

    Sam has a nice ring to it. It makes me think Samsaphone

  10. I beg to differ. Alice can exist without Sam, but Sam cannot exist without Alice.

  11. More importantly, can Sam & Alice exist without Tiger & Kitty Carryall? Anonymous. Are you the "Charlie Townsend" guy?
