But I admit that I grew to love some of the Broadways and even choose to listen to certain songs, even now- with fondness and enjoyment that you wrote eloquently of Scott. I too grew up- as a parent and hopefully grew in my ability to be a parent because of some of these songs and the steadfast attachment of some of my children to this music. <br /><br />Thanks for an insightful post- which I am only reading now.revel7https://www.blogger.com/profile/03594337764542277641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193804879983538667.post-27412752535914818332009-09-08T17:13:09.697-07:002009-09-08T17:13:09.697-07:00Everything I Ever Wanted To Know About Genocide I ...Everything I Ever Wanted To Know About Genocide I Learned In The Third Grade.

What, the lyrics "I do the sprinkler, tsh tsh tsh tsh tsh tsh, I do the sprinkler, tsh tsh tsh tsh tsh" don't touch your heart? <br /><br />Or how about Skankin' Pickle? Example: "I missed the bus. I missed the bus again. I missed the bus. I missed the bus again." You can't tell me that isn't relevant to just about everyone. <br /><br />I guess this is why I am a goofy adult.Theresehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05335245109079987682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5193804879983538667.post-7067536250564269482009-09-07T17:34:51.032-07:002009-09-07T17:34:51.032-07:00Without a doubt my favorite album.

This is the only album that I have listened to at least monthly since I first got it over 10 years ago. <br /><br />It could be that I have lived in Chicagoland my whole life and have known a lot of people over time who have at least heard the album, but it seems to generate a lot of conversation, with you most of all. <br /><br />Last summer a good friend of mine who grew up in the burbs but in high school moved to South Carolina visited me, bringing with him a native South Carolinian both of whom had memorized most of the album. As we drove around Chicago, especially Uptown they both broke into song as we passed many places that they recognized from the 30 some songs that the Broadways recorded. <br /><br />I keep waiting to find an album I care this much about but don't think I'm in the same stage in my life where one album can make the same sort of impact. I guess I'll keep hoping I find one that does.Ethanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04214708793495740662noreply@blogger.com
