one song to the tune of another -
explained
h head cold
analogy Try to imagine a song’s tune
as a head cold, and its accompanying words, or lyrics, as a mentholated
decongestant lozenge. If one set of words or lyrics (the lozenge) are judged to
be ineffective when combined with the head cold (or tune) they can easily be
replaced with an alternative brand of lozenge, or different words. Incidentally
the Chairman was clearing out the bathroom cabinet the other day when he came
upon the remains of popular brand of cough lozenge, in poor shape and barely
recognisable as a tune. Which reminds him, at the piano Colin Sell.
house
analogy You might like to think of your tune as a house, and the words as the
interior decor which of course can be changed - a sort of musical version
of Changing Rooms if you will (that is where two couples swap houses
and redecorate them in the style of a Dutch brothel or a Bombay public
toilet).
Now that
all that has been explained, where does Handy Andy fit into all this? Well we
don’t need a Handy Andy banging away on his own trying to destroy a
perfectly good piece of furniture, not when there is
Colin Sell at the piano.
