It was just a moment in time
Thank you for contributing your words.
Your all-good sports and good sorts
Its these sorts of moments
That keep me on the floor
Waiting for more

It was just a moment in time
When grapes of the vine won over hops or just some water with lemon or lime
Now I'm older its beer or nothing alcoholic all of the time
Sorry I can't come up with some good words that rhyme

I thought its sound production was following too much of the saccharine formular of that day making the music arrangement the same as many other songs on the charts at that time in music history. I think Gary Puckett & The Union Gap did that sort of songs better with that song "Young Girl".     The best production in that genre at that time would have to be to me Eloise By Barry Ryan.

Heard he is a real nice guy. Not into his music if the kids like it that's okay. I guess it's a sign of getting older and going into decay when new things come my way it just shows I was born on the wrong day.   Remembering we are now the oldies whose ears are tuned differently.     

Mojo you and Jim put together a real good song here all the right ingredients spot on performance.     

Hi Jan,  my 102-year-old mother had a habit of saying for fish sake when I think she means for Fox sake. But now her mind is going and even though she s  a good Christian lady the other word has crept into her vocabulary.    The first time I heard and saw Split Enz was at the great Ngaruawahia Music Festival it was the first large outdoor music festival in New Zealand. It was held on a farm at Ngāruawāhia on the Waikato River, 19 kilometres north-west of Hamilton, for three days from 6 to 8 January 1973. Easy Beat was part of the group that I went up to the music festival with. Anyway I thought they were great but unfortunately they didn’t go down well with the crowd and were boo of the stage and   they had missiles thrown at them by thugs in the crowd dangerous objects like beer bottles. . They also got a bad write up in the press.  The band which I didn’t enjoy at that festival that got a good write up in the press and the crowd loved them was Black Sabbath   A few years later Split Enz  became very popular and there were plenty who wanted to see and hear them. Back then their stage costumes and stage show was ahead of its time. Ngaruuawahia was also my  first introduction to  a band I loved called  Fairport Convention.  Fairport do a song called Rosie it is a song that is one of my all time favorite songs.

Yep Jim and Phill I agree with what you say the Stones are full of rough edges though there are a couple of songs of theirs I really like. I think also what helped make the Beatles great was having George Martin onboard.   The likes of Beatle mania I don't think we will ever see again. Not only the songs but all the merchandise sales like Beatle boots and Beatle Wigs and also spin of things like the cartoon series and so on.  Maybe Elvis or Micheal Jackson are up there but not in a diverse original songwriting way in terms of a mania amongst fans. I guess it must have been the Beatles that inspired the TV people to make the Monkeys into a pop group??

Wimbledon next year for you EB or maybe all four grand slam tournaments?     

Beatles
Don't know
Sometimes both genres in small doses
60S
Both with the sound and lights turned off.     

It was just a moment in time

My words here are imaginations that are meant to be just a poem

Never are they conceived to be about me or those around me

It was just a moment in time
Father Easy Beat said Peatle.
Its Sunday there are ten commandments to keep

It was just a moment in time.
Peatle said to Father Easy is this street part of your beat. 
It's not even close to your church is this part of your undercover research.

Here is my entry for June song of the month. Hope it's ok using the word change.
