Chris,
I remember Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels. I never had their albums but remember a few of their singles. I didn’t know he made anything afterward. I remember Bob Ezrin’s name on quite a few albums, namely Alice Cooper, Kiss, Aerosmith and I’m sure a few others. That’s a nice Christmas gift. I have a few albums I’m almost sure Mona and Lisa have never heard, maybe I’ll send one for their birthday.

Daryl, I remember that band name April Wine. I remember they had a big hit in the States called Just Between You And Me. It’s worth sharing if you don’t mind. Really nice song, beautiful vocals and a great guitar solo. RIP Myles.

This is a picture of the Christmas tree at the State Capitol in Madison Wisconsin, taken by my cousin Jeffrey.

Nice pictures Keith, made iconic by the Any Other Day video. Beautiful place to have a wedding, all they are missing is a flute player.

Maybe my first choice of a Lisa song is Vincent. Lisa delivers this with such passion, I have listened to it many times and have not got through it without a tear. It’s one of the best songs I’ve ever heard sung by anyone. It’s hard to type with eyes full of tears but this is something special.

Chris, Jung, It really was pretty with the big wet snowflakes falling amongst all the lights. Everyone was in a great mood, like Mona was talking about in the one livestream, sharing small talk with strangers is really pleasant this time of year. I am slowly starting to get into the Christmas spirit.

Jurgen, I’m watching Christmas Vacation right now, Lol. It’s my favorite Christmas movie. The sight gag that I think is so funny is Clark and Eddie drinking egg nog with the Marty Moose mugs he obviously got when they went to Wally World in the first movie.

That’s beautiful Jurgen, not hard to get into the Christmas spirit watching that.

Jurgen, that’s really cool. I like all that miniature modelling stuff. They really go to extremes to make all the scenes look so real. So much creativity and detail.

Hey Chris, I have experience trimming Christmas trees. A local tree farmer used to hire teenagers to trim his trees. He had over 400 acres of trees in several different fields. It was a great part time job for a school kid that needed gas money. I wonder how many teenagers you could get these days to trim trees for $3.00 an hour?

Johnnypee, I agree with what you are saying about those songs. I love Mona singing Everybody’s Talking, never really cared for Nillson’s version much but with Mona singing it I really enjoy it. Then when Lisa joins in on the harmonies it takes it to an even higher level. Another one that fits your description is Catch The Wind. Lisa sings the first verse so beautiful and when Mona comes in on the second verse it is something special, I just close my eyes and absorb it. There’s just so many different vocal arrangements they do that are amazing. I love Mona singing the lead on Lola but when Lisa sings those really high harmonies, my god, that is superstar level stuff. I have no doubt each one would do a wonderful job as a solo artist but as a duo they are untouchable.

Roger, of course you are right. Like I said, their super power is them playing and singing together. Their harmonies are the best I’ve ever heard and they don’t always do they same harmonies. Sometimes Lisa is high and sometimes Mona is high. Sometimes one is singing lead and the other singing harmony. Sometimes they are both singing lead together. I have no doubt each one could be a star on their own but playing together I think they are the best I’ve ever heard. I like your choices too. There are several Roy Orbison songs I would love to hear them do.

Singapore looks very festive. I would love to experience that landslide of snow. I hope it is artificial snow. That car is pretty cool too. One year, shortly after Christmas we had a big snowstorm. Me and my brother Rod went to the city brush dump and hauled a bunch of the used Christmas trees back to his place and stuck them in the snow banks. We landscaped his driveway, his walks and around his house, it was beautiful, Lol. On his birthday in February we had a bonfire and burned all the trees. Just one of the crazy things we poor people did for entertainment before the internet.

Jung, yeah it is really cool, The whole train is lit up. They stop the stage car on the crossing, drop the door and put on a show for 20-30 minutes. They have a Santa that mingles in the crowd. Canadian Pacific also donates a good sized check to the local food pantry. They stop in a lot of small towns across the northern US and Canada.
