What...Loved "The Boys" and your tribute. What a team - I had no idea of the magnitude of their writing. It's really amazing when you stop to think of all the wonderful human talent that makes up the world that we all refer to as DISNEY.WendyLady@GoodBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07884742120430546504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28039080.post-85137443414148973362012-03-06T19:51:10.813+00:002012-03-06T19:51:10.813+00:00A great loss Mr B and, as usual, you give us a fit...A great loss Mr B and, as usual, you give us a fitting epitaph. If not the soundtrack of our lives, they certainly gave us the soundtrack of our childhood.The thing that comes across with their work is that it actually stands alone outside of the film it is showcased in. That's a great achievement really because the inspiration to write a good song normally comes from within, rather than being given to you as something needed to represent a particular moment in an existing plot. What then happens, as in 'Poppins' is an escape from the film into little musical vignettes - like 'Feed the Birds' which stand alone and independent as great sound and vision.My own favourite is Hushabye Mountain from 'Chitty'. Lyrically that is beautiful and poignant, musically its fantastic - just a great song whenever you here it in whatever context.<br />As you say,Brian, a great loss.Boll Weavilnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28039080.post-70028873549220910052012-03-06T18:25:43.765+00:002012-03-06T18:25:43.765+00:00Lovely tribute, Brian.

(Well, of course I knew about Poppins!)<br /><br />Thank you.scbhttp://serenityathome.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
