I wish you the strength of loving memories. It's hard, that first Christmas.
My parents died around Christmas, within 10 days of each other. I was just numb, that first Christmas.
Like a tunnel that you follow to a tunnel of its own
Down a hollow to a cavern where the sun has never shone
Like a door that keeps revolving in a half forgotten dream
Or the ripples from a pebble someone tosses in a stream
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping past the minutes of its face
And the world is like an apple whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind
How magnificent. Ustinov and Von Karajan. Thanks for sharing.When I was about 10 years old maybe 11 my mum and dad bought me a Dansette for Christmas this was the first LP I ever bought after saving my pocket money up for a few weeks.
Prokofiev / Peter Ustinov / Herbert von Karajan, 1960: Peter And The Wolf.
You know that sound when the needle gets to the centre of the record?
Tsschk....tsschk.....tsschk......tsschk....
So many versions...but this one is beautiful.
I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to…
