I should have written : I have met quite a few tourist who have seen much more of Canada than I have.

Hi Jacki,

I have never been to Niagara falls. I would love to to go.  I would also love to go to the east  coast of Canada, Nova Scotia & Newfoundland. This is such a huge country & many Canadians have only seen such a small part of it. I have met quite a few  tourists who have seen more of Canada than I have.

Thanks Jung for your reply & for sending that link to your original post about your Beatlemania moment and Lisa’s wonderful evocative  response.  It sounds like quite a time. I loved the Beatles Red & Blue albums as well.  When I was around 13 I started to go to my sisters place & listen to her incredible collection of vinyl records. It was when I really started to “listen” to music. One of  my favourites was the Beatles White album. It completely transfixed me and took me to another place. I was in awe of the incredible diversity of styles & attitudes of the songs & of the feelings & questions they provoked in me. It was shocking to me that music could move me like that. Their charisma oozed out of the speakers & I felt  like I could relate to so much of what they were saying & at the same time they were miles above me . I began to see what quality was,  what talent was. Like Lisa described  about her Beatlemania moment mine seems insignificant . But it was the beginning of my life long love affair with Beatles music &  in fact with music in general. To this day when I discover an artist that really reaches me I devour every song I can get a hold of. I become completely immersed in their music. When I discovered Mona Lisa Twins I immediately knew that I would be spending a lot of time listening to their music. I immediately knew I was hearing quality & immense talent; That they they are special and unique in this world of disposable plastic.

Vancouver is a beautiful city as well. Mona & Lisa should visit Stanley Park, Granville Island and take that incredible sea to sky highway drive to Whistler.

I have to ask, “Beatlemania biology trip” what was that all about? What an intriguing phrase

[David]

Hello Jung,

Yes you’re right. I was born and raised in Calgary & one of the things I miss the most other than people is hiking in Kananaskis Country which is about an hour away. It is still one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. Then I moved to Victoria where I spent most of my life. They have to see Tofino which is north of Victoria on Vancouver Island.

Mine too, Jacki.  I would love to see them in Montreal. I think they would fall in love with that city as much as I did. It’s such a vibrant, culturally rich city with an incredible Anglophone as well as  a Francophone music scene. I can imagine seeing them strolling through old Montreal amount the stunning architecture eating a poutine in one of their slick gorgeous videos . But really I would love to see Mona & Lisa  anywhere.

[David]

Thank you very much Lisa for your kind welcome.  You & Mona have formed a wonderful community here. Its a very welcoming and life affirming place.  Its great to read  what people have to say about your incredible music; the sharing of all this admiration for what you both do. Since I joined last Saturday I’ve seen & heard a lot of material that was new to me. My appreciation and admiration for you both keeps growing. I’m looking forward to discovering more & especially to your next album.

Hi Gary,

Welcome to the club from a fellow newcomer. I also love their cover of Both Sides Now. It is truly a masterpiece.  Check out their new video of it here:

Hi Tim,

From suprisingly very sunny and humid Magog Canada.

Welcome to the club. There is an incredible amount of wonderful material here to explore. That should at least give you the illusion thats its sunny outside. I”m new here myself  & am in constant awe of the quality their work.

[David]

Bonjour & G’day to you as well Matt. Wellcome to the club. I see you’re new here as well. It’s great to be a part of all this. Isn’t it?

[David]

Hello again everyone. Another mistake I have to correct. Regarding If I Fell. Its That achingly beautiful Cello. Not Bass.

 

 

[David]

I think I should get some sleep!

[David]

Thanks for the Welcome David

Yes I’ve done my country proud by doing something stupid & I’ve pretty well ensured that I will forever be known in the MonaLisa Twins club  as the Canadian who called Jacki, Jack.

Yeah they can go in the winter and skate on the Rideau canal
