I decided it was necessary to get out of the house and enjoy the week of summer weather Seattle was having.
An entire week of weather over 75!
Amazing… and sad at the same time.
My parental unit took Steve, Clark and me out to dinner down at a local beach and then we set up lawn chairs to enjoy a free outdoor concert!
The band playing was a Beatles cover band called
They are really good, however they were giving away copies of their cd’s and I was wondering why you would listen to an album by a cover band.
Wouldn’t you just buy the real album??
Maybe that’s why they were giving them away I guess…
Lady Madonna children at your feet
We saw a great sunset out over Lake Washington
Grandma and Grandpa with Clark
And there was a pretty good turn out for the show too
I have been listening to The Beatles for as long as I can remember.
Some of my first cassettes were Beatles & Beach Boys albums.
When I began taking piano lessons, my favorite book to play out of was the Beatles song book.
Probably because I actually recognized most of the songs I was playing.
Last night though, it became apparent that for the last 20 some years I have been singing a lot of the wrong lyrics to these songs
Ooops.
After realizing that, and being corrected by Mom, some of the songs made a bit more sense!
Who woulda thought?!
Here are a few examples of phrases gone wrong:
What I thought: Paper boy Rider
What they really are: Paperback Writer
What I thought: Lovely Rita, Rita Mae
What they really are: Lovely Rita Meter maid
What I thought: I held her hand in Hawaii
What they really are: I held her hand in mine
Also,” A Hard Day’ s Night” is actually kinda dirty.
Shame. Shame.
