so i actually looked at the description of the item i purchased today. it’s a 7″ record, so isn’t that a 45? so what does the 45 MEAN?
i’m sure it’s very obvious.
and on the A side is “we have lost two little elephants” and on the B side is “the big grey elephant team.”
i was thinking about this after i bought the record – i’m the only one in the whole world who cares about this. it’s kind of like “winchester cathedral.” have you ever heard that song? It’s not a children’s song.
ok, wait, i just looked at the photo of my new (old) record and in the upper right hand corner it says “45 RPM.”
RPM! RPM! how FAST it goes around, you moron!
rpm.
“winchester cathedral” is by a group called the “new vaudeville band,” and the record is from the 60’s. my parents had it, and i listened to that song a lot. it disappeared many years ago, but my brother found one on ebay a while ago and my mom gave it to me, so i can listen to it whenever i want.
do you recall that i don’t know much about any music? because if i have it on, i forget to keep listening to it. i mean, i really really try to keep listening, but my mind gets caught up with other things. and then after a while i realize the music stopped long ago, or it’s on repeat and i’ve heard it two million times.
retarded, i know. i can’t help it.
but so what do i love? we have lost two little elephants. winchester cathedral. “winchester cathedral, you’re breaking me down, you stood and you watched and…my baby left town.” here’s a good idea – i should sing a few more songs and put a new one up on the site every week. how hard could it be?
because there are many songs out there.
or so they tell me.
i have exactly six minutes to make it to bed by midnight. will i succeed in this seemingly unattainble goal?
doubtful.
but at least close.
ok then, goodnight,
grace almost to friday.
