The mondayMEDIA song of
Spring 2018
Beethoven Symphony #6, 1st Movement
At first it seemed
too easy, Springtime for Hitler. I was just
waiting for it to be spring. But then that seemed too
easy, too broad, elucidating nothing. The song really
going through my head was Further Along (AKA Father
Alone, long story).
It was
difficult to come up with a clear version with video
of the performance. We like this version (artists not
attributed), although it leaves out important verses: "Tempted
and tried we're oft made to wonder, Why it should be
thus all the day long. While there are others living
about us, Never molested though in the wrong...And
then do we wonder why others prosper, Living so wicked
year after year" etc.
