Th05e We!e the Da*s: M@r^ H0p&!n
Okay, this is a new thing. Richard suggested, “Make the information HUMAN-readable only – like the ‘captcha’ screens do. Most readers will catch on to the way the game’s played over time and the machines have nothing for The Master. It could even become a variation on ‘Name That Tune!’”

Birgit,
Scones with your tea?

Kat, rooibos tea with fruit, not very British. Cookies with cocoa later.

Thank you, my dear Hedley,
This is a song from my college days, and my friends and I lamented it was probably prophetic.

I can listen to this song all day. I think it is the melanccholy sound I like so much.
Here’s a link to the Swedish version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LVVJu59KDo

Christer,
This is even a bit more melancholic than the Mary version. It is beautifully sung.

It’s a nice version … quite reminiscent of vintage Marlene Dietrich’s voice … ‘Lili Marlene’ isn’t quite an accurate sample to compare, but close enough for government work …

Richard,
I agree. It is a nice version.

Kat,
You know this song often make me teary eyed.
Where did those days go?

Lori,
I think it makes us all a bit nostalgic for our younger days.

I thought I heard a balalaika in the instrumentation, so a search was done – and it’s not a balalaika – it’s a cembalon … here’s the link to the history of the song … it’s more involved than I thought …

Richard,
That was a great article. Now I want to find as many versions as I can. It will be a good thing to “while away the hours.”

Don’t be gettin’ all ‘WFMU-FM,’ okay … ? They had (have?) 61 diff’rent versions of ‘Tico Tico’ in their archives … and yes, one of ’em is by Ricky Ricardo and another’s by Xavier Cugat …

I wasn’t thinking of posting them, just keeping the files. I have several files of multiples of the same song.
