Reminds me of that Billy Preston song:If I had NO "random thought for the day"...would it still be one?
0-0= 0 or is it 2 0's?

Ya, heard that same song just the other day. Couldn't get it outta my head after taking it in, eh?
That ended up being his...signature song.

Strange how the mind works when a certain song/tune ends up in the brain, and... you can't shake it!
Is it the melody, the lyrics, or does the music revive some pleasant memory from the past?
Like I have one in mind (literally); Tennessee Ernie Ford's ballad of, "Sixteen Tons"! And it's a case of BOTH lyrics and melody that grabs me!

I think I was in 7 th grade. We all (in our little gang) had pocket transistor radios. That was one of our favorite songs to catch during lunch. All the guys loved it. "One fist of iron, the other of steel. If the left one don't get ya the right one will." Real gut stuff!

Time to "Turn Off" lights in Indiana......................
It seems like autocorrect is finally realizing that I am lost cause. I just typed a post in another thread full of spelling and grammatical errors and it didn't even try.
I am a lost cause. There, I helped you.
As paramedics were climbing up the rocks in the mountains to rescue an injured rock climber, one of their bags tore open and a pack of bandages fell out. He looked down hoping to be able to save it. The other paramedic said "Forget it! It's a lost gauze."I am a lost cause. There, I helped you.

I always heard that George Martin was the 5th Beatle, and Billie was the 6th!I always liked this one better than Nothin' .....
And yeah, I know all about the "5th Beatle" thing, totally cool
Hi DR,
There are several different versions of who people refer to as the "5th Beatle", depending on who you ask.....
en.wikipedia.org
"Preston is one of very few musicians to be given a credit on a Beatles recording, which was done at the band's request; the group's 1969 single "Get Back" was credited as "The Beatles with Billy Preston". He is one of several people referred to as a fifth Beatle."
Further, , , , depending on which Beatle ya asked, it appears there was a whole cadre of "fifth Beatles"
"The band's members have offered their own views as to who should be described with the title. McCartney said in a 1997 interview that "if anyone was the fifth Beatle", it was manager Brian Epstein,and later applied the honorific to producer George Martin in a 2016 memorial post. Harrison said at the Beatles' 1988 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame that there were only two "fifth Beatles": Derek Taylor, the Beatles' public relations manager, and Neil Aspinall, their road manager-turned-business-executive. Others referred to as the "fifth Beatle" include their early drummer, Pete Best, original bassist Stuart Sutcliffe, and keyboardist Billy Preston."

François-Marie Arouet was rather deliberate and determined in his commentary re: his mid and late 18th century world.
