A Sense of Doubt blog post #2204 - The Logical Song is not Logical - MUSICAL MONDAY FOR 2103.01  - THAT ONE THING

Still in catch up mode.

Not ketchup mode.

Catching up mode.

Even in this cover of the Supertramp song "The Logical Song" by Pomplamoose, listening to the song invokes a WEIRD mood that I cannot describe.

There's melancholy to it, but it's not really melancholy.

There's nostalgia because it always takes me back to the late 1970s when I discovered it, and I was establishing my musical tastes.

I cannot describe the feeling but listen to the song and see if you feel it, too.

Regardless, it is one of my favorite songs of ALL TIME.

And the Pomplamoose cover is awesome.

Here's a recent post by me that features many POMPLAMOOSE songs and pictures, including this song:

"Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned?

I know it sounds absurd

Please tell me who I am

Who I am

Who I am..."

"The Logical Song"

Lyrics

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful

A miracle

Oh, it was beautiful, magical

And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily

Oh joyfully, oh playfully, watching me

But then they sent me away to teach me how to be sensible

Logical, oh responsible, practical

Then they showed me a world where I could be so dependable (dependable)

Oh clinical, intellectual, cynical

There are times when all the world's asleep

The questions run too deep

For such a simple man

Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned?

I know it sounds absurd

Please tell me who I am

I said, Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical (a radical)

Liberal, oh fanatical, criminal

Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're acceptable

Respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable, oh, oh, oh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh, ooh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

But at night, when all the world's asleep

The questions run too deep

For such a simple man

Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned?

I know it sounds absurd

Please tell me who I am

Who I am

Who I am

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

It's logical

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

So very logical

D-d-dependable (ooh, ooh, ooh)

It's logical

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, goodbye

So very logical (ooh, ooh, ooh)

Oh, logical

It's logical

D-d-dependable

LOW POWER MODE: I sometimes put the blog in what I call LOW POWER MODE. If you see this note, the blog is operating like a sleeping computer, maintaining static memory, but making no new computations. If I am in low power mode, it's because I do not have time to do much that's inventive, original, or even substantive on the blog. This means I am posting straight shares, limited content posts, reprints, often something qualifying for the THAT ONE THING category and other easy to make posts to keep me daily. That's the deal. Thanks for reading.

I am so behind as I type this (2103.06 for a post date and time stamped 2103.01 10:10). So I am just going with simple posts or already finished shares or school stuff until I get not just caught up but pull ahead.

- Days ago = 2068 days ago

- New note - On 1807.06, I ceased daily transmission of my Hey Mom feature after three years of daily conversations. I plan to continue Hey Mom posts at least twice per week but will continue to post the days since ("Days Ago") count on my blog each day. The blog entry numbering in the title has changed to reflect total Sense of Doubt posts since I began the blog on 0705.04, which include Hey Mom posts, Daily Bowie posts, and Sense of Doubt posts. Hey Mom posts will still be numbered sequentially. New Hey Mom posts will use the same format as all the other Hey Mom posts; all other posts will feature this format seen here.
