Cat's Cafe by Matt Tarpley for April 04, 2020

April’s showers bring May’s flowers.

Noticing the logo on Fennec’s phone. Is that supposed to be a “Raspberry Pi” model? =3 (Or strawberry, perhaps?)

Man… I can so easily relate to this. =’3

Noel Coward, “Strange how powerful cheap music is.”

When my mother died, I played Keali’i Reichel’s “Wanting Memories” over and over.

I would’ve done the same thing.

Songs can transport you back to times and places. Amongst the early albums I bought I can still remember where I was and even what the weather was doing. I got the Birthday Party by Jeff Lynne’s Idle Race in December. It was snowing. Pictures at an Exhibition by Emerson, Lake and Palmer during the summer holidays when it was cold and overcast. In the Court of the Crimson King by King Crimson in thick fog. Can’t remember where I left my clean pair of socks though.

“Please mister, please, don’t play B17, it was our song, it was his song, now it’s o,o,over…”. Everyone can relate little guy.

Can anyone tell me what kind of dog that is?

Today this is in honor of Bill Withers who died yesterday. That is why the tears.

The song for me like that is “head on collion” hawknelson

Given the other songs mentioned here this is going to sound weird, but Pearl Jam’s “Black” always gets to me, especially these lyrics:

“I know someday you’ll have a beautiful lifeI know you’ll be a star in somebody else’s sky, but whyWhy, why can’t it be, oh, can’t it be mine?”

“puff the magic dragon” gets me every time. Don’t know why.

Jimmy Buffett’s “he went to Paris” always seems to get me for some reason….

Thanks, Matt…your strips / thoughts are always gems !

do People remember charlie puth.

So right!!!!!

SO TRUE
