Favorite Song

3/16/2018

11 Comments

 
As you open the blog today, and if technology is truly being my friend this week, you are listening to Red Rubber Ball sung live by Simon and Garfunkle. Red Rubber Ball is one of my very favorite songs.  Written by Paul Simon and Bruce Woodly, it was recorded by The Cyrkle and hit #2 on the US Billboard Hot 100 in 1966.  I was living in Germany at the time as a preteen, and this song always brings back very fine memories.

"And I think it's gonna be alright, yeah the worst is over now, the mornin' sun is shining like a Red Rubber Ball." Such a great message!

Our mornin' sun has NOT been shining like a Red Rubber Ball as nor'easter after nor'easter pummels New England and the Mid-Atlantic.  A morning sun shot would have been very appropriate for this song.  However, plan #2 seems to have also worked.
Yes, that's Matty.  All you have to do is put something--anything--on the floor and soon he will be there to investigate it.  Detective Matty.  We did happen to have a red rubber ball.  This is one of those balls that has feet and little ears which I always cut off so that no dogs ingest those parts.   I believe if you click on the photos they will enlarge, but don't hold your breath.

I can't wait to read through the blog circle and see what favorite songs have been selected by other photographers!  Join me by starting with Lacey Schuetz Photography based in Winston-Salem, NC.  Then work your way through the blog until you are back here.  If you hit a glitch, come back later in the day, when all bugs are worked out and all links are repaired.  Enjoy!

It worked. I'm listening to the song... and it's one I've actually not ever heard. I do like S&G and their harmonies.

Sadly, the song is not playing as I view your post on my iPad, so I’ll have to check it later on my computer.

I’m going to have to check out that song on the computer because I’m reading the blogs on the iPad and can’t hear it. Maty is adorable.
