Thread Name: Origins: Ah you're..? / Are Ye Right There Michael
Subject: RE: Origins: 'Ah, you're right there Michael
Fascinating stuff. Reason I asked is because I'm making notes for a memoir. My father wrote his when he was 60 and as I am 60 in a few months time I thought I should do the same for my son. However, the more memories I noted the more I realised that up to the age of 20 everything tied in to songs and music. The theatre, films, family moments, TV, all were musically based memories. I feel certain now that I saw a TV play on the life of French in black and white when I was 11 or 12. The song stuck and I've never heard it since, but I can sing the melody to the line "Are ye right there Michael, are ye right" to this day.Hope I see the film one day.
Think I must have a very well developed rostromedial prefontal cortex.
But then, haven't we all? Or we wouldn't be Mudcatters?
