here comes the sun | song-ography ...






~doo-doo-doo-doo~

here comes the sun


and I say 
it's all right

*George Harrison*

. . .

I must say, I am having so much fun with this song-ography memes. (thank you Kathy!)
Another participant acknowledged how it is so much easier to remember a melody prompt throughout the week versus a list of words.
I would take that a step further,
it is more natural as well.
Perhaps this is because I often hear a tune when I look at a picture,
enough so that it happens without concentration or effort.
When our daughter was pre-school age we often remarked that if they gave her the lesson in a melody and then (always) applauded her effort, she would go far in school.
Well, they didn't exactly teach Geometry or any other class through a melody
or applaud for that matter;
still, she excelled and continues to go far in her endeavors.
I'm guessing we provided enough music and applause to get her through.

  6. I am so glad you are enjoying Song-ography Nicki. I'm not sure why I didn't think of it sooner, as I have ALWAYS had a song in my head for one reason or another :). When I was younger I DID put my school memorizations into song form, lol. Hey,it worked :). Life is just more beautiful and memorable in song, in my world. I love your first photo how the highway takes me right into that beautiful Sun. Thanks for joining in on Song-ography, hope to see you next Sunday for "Lean on Me" :)

  7. Yes, you're right, we can remember words so much more easily when they are set to music. I've known people with brain problems who can't speak a sentence, but they can sing a song with all the verses. Fascinating. I especially love your first photo because the sunlight is diffuse and gauzy. Beautiful!
