I love my headset. I can always listen to my favorite music and sometimes watch films on YouTube.
Tonight is one of those that I treasure, listening to the music of Rod McKuen and Henry Mancini. I was reading some early posts about Rod McKuen then thought of listening to his husky voice while he recites some poems and sings his songs. He is not probably popular with kids and the millennial nowadays. I agree, there is only one Rod McKuen. He shared his music to the world and his poems. I always get inspired reading his words and listening to his music.
I remember Mary Anne, a friend I met back in our Multiply days. She died about two years ago, a previous blogger here at WordPress too. She sent me two CDs of Henry Mancini one birthday years ago. She knew I love Mancini’s music and she loved it too. Wherever you are Mary Anne, let us listen to your favorite.
My love of Mancini started when I watched the movie adaptation of The Thorn Birds (a book by Colleen McCullough) The theme song was just heavenly so I looked for more of his compositions and there are several in YouTube. I am presently listening to The Very Best of Henry Mancini while writing this. Think of The Pink Panther, Moon River, Days of Wine and Roses, How Soon, Two for the Road. I could go on and on. They are wonderful music of days gone by.
My night is filled with music.
