Blogger waxes rhapsodic over The Golden Apple
The last thing I expected was to see any other blogger out there mentioning The Golden Apple, our Spring Season opener, and a very rare bird indeed.
But Something Old, Something New does write often about culture from decades past, obscure and non-obscure.
This time blogger Jaime quotes the lyrics from one of the Golden Apple songs, Whereever we went, they loved us.
Getting political for a moment, don't this song's lyrics seem eerily reminiscent of the whole "greeted with flowers" vs. vicious insrugency disconnect in Iraq?
That's what I love about the "classic" (and some would say old-fashioned) works that 42nd St. Moon focuses on. They're often timeless and timely.
