Honky Tonk Serenade

There are no lyrics to this great piece of music 
so here is a little nonsense to read while you listen.

Music soothes the savage beast...unless it's polka.

After silence, music comes closest to expressing the inexpressible.

Q: What happens if you sing country music backwards?
A: You get your job and your wife back.

'Music is a moral law- it gives wings to the mind,
A soul to the universe, Flight to the imagination,
A charm to sadness, A life to everything.' -- Plato

Anything too stupid to be said... is sung.

Music is the art of thinking with sounds.

Music. Food for soul and heart.

Music is the science of manipulating emotion through sound.
 - Angus Gray

Music washes from the soul the dust of everyday life. -

New music is old music played twice as fast and half as well -

Somebody said to me, 'But the Beatles were anti-materialistic.' 

That's a huge myth.
John and I literally used to sit down and say,
'Now, let's write a swimming pool.' - Paul McCartney

These are bagpipes: I understand the inventor of the
bagpipes was inspired when he saw a man carrying an indignant,
 asthmatic pig under his arm. Unfortunately, the man-made 
sound never equaled the purity the sound achieved by the pig.
 - Alfred Hitchcock
