Thanks for sharing his music today. I turned it on today and my husband said, "Who's that?"

I'm over from A to Z if you feel like popping over to say hi.

I'll stop by.<br /><br />Lucy -- I think the weirdness of the world is the main theme of the film. Think of the ordinariness of the opening and close of the film contrasted with the weirdness in the middle. It was a shocking film in many ways, but it presented an interesting message and was ingeniously presented in the way David Lynch does so well.<br /><br />LeeArlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4020898804375958182.post-49852888577495936992012-04-17T06:37:55.805-07:002012-04-17T06:37:55.805-07:00Orbison was a master.
