Q7:What Kind of Music ,books, and other types of entertainment, do you, Like,?
Music is easy. I like those
love or loss love songs that come from the heart. An example of this is
"I'm a Fool to Want You" sung by Frank Sinatra. You
got to listen to the 1957 version. This type of song should only be
recorded after a love is loss. Singer songwriter Peter Cincotti, who
at 18 was writing songs with his Mom, said that his music was good but
his love songs were not. He couldn't wait for his heart to be broken to
really know how to write and perform a love song. Besides Sinatra's "i'm
a Fool to Want You", my other favorites are
Bobby Darin's version of "If I were a Carpenter", Bobby Darin
again playing just the guitar and Linda Ronstadt singing "Long
Long time" , Dusty Springfield's version of "Windmills of Your
mind", Neil Diamond's "Stones". These are just a few of my kind of
music. But you get the idea. Books, well I generally go for the
historic type mostly about wars. The non- fiction
reflections of people's struggles in a very real way, interest me. Other
entertainment? Well I don't do movie theaters or TV much, but I do like
the PBS Master Piece Theater stuff. Like DowntonAbbey, Grantchester,
Polkdart, Mr. Selfridge and others. I love British acting it is so real
and believable. Very difficult to do. When I see the characters in real
time versus them playing their characters, I am amazed of the
difference. They play their characters so well.
Now the Sport's
Jocks out there will say "a real man would have sports on his
list. He sounds more like a woman". To that I say,"a real man has
no problem with things that touch his soul".
