Today's Random Thought

[autographedcat]

I've been thinking, and, as it turns out, I don't actually care if the world learns to sing in perfect harmony. So I see no reason I should bother to try and teach it.

I bet you won't buy it a Coke, either :-)

A little disharmony is good for the world. Complete agreement is scary.

One person's harmony is another's discord, especially if one is using equal temperament...

But, but, but... cflute...

Although maybe if we can just teach the tone-deaf ones to be quiet...

Although that definitely includes NOT giving them caffeine and high fructose corn syrup. Which is generally bad for most of them in the first place... (There are some beings which *need* their caffeine... ironically, cflute is one of them....)

Today's message apparently NOT brought to you by Coca-Cola.

Speaking of temperaments, you might be interested in this post (http://mdlbear.livejournal.com/697016.html) by mdlbear on the subject... particularly with Bach in your interests...

That just hung in my brain and I hadda pass it along..

I meant to put that link into my comment, but forgot to add it. I haven't listened to the site yet, I haven't had access to a PC with sound over the weekend.

And I'm certainly not doing that thing with the bees and apples and turtle doves in *my* house. Buying one for the whole world? At today's property values?

As someone who can't carry a tune in a bucket, I thank you.

Just give the world a Coke instead.

Just one.

For the entire world.

Now, set about getting your hands on the top secret formula, break it down to the molecular level, multiply this unit by the world's population, find a single bottle of coke containing that number of units, and disperse.

Isn't that in the Bible? The miracle of the Cokes and fishes?

Man, branding is everywhere these days.

I thought it was the loaves and Fizzes....

I say, let the tone-deaf ones sing out too! :)

[technoshaman.livejournal.com]

I can think of at least a couple songs where that actually works well... :)

All we want to do is eat your brains...

I thought that line was 'Buy the world a toke' - as in, a cannabis cigarette.

[windtear.livejournal.com]

Am I the only one who heard the previous line as 'Buy the world a toke' (as in, a cannabis cigarette)? Because, man, I'd have to be high to try to teach singing.

No, it was "I'd like to buy the world a Coke" -- it was an advertisement for the soda, but the song caught on. (Too much; we performed it in my elementary school chorus :-P
