Watching a French series – A French Village – about a small town occupied by the German army in WW2. One of the characters is a policeman only too pleased to rat out other people and impress the occupied forces. Coincidentally resembles young Stephen Harper…maybe no coincidence. Still pissed he had the nerve to at the same time, play Imagine on the piano and promote his fascist fantasies, but that’s how the world works; double speak. Amazing what a song can do. Vera Lynn died today, seventy-five years after WW2 ended. They played We’ll Meet Again on the news in her memory. The arrangement was very 1940s, that aesthetic is so out of fashion. Would be enjoyable to live long enough to hear the next musical fashions. It would have to be as unpredictable as heavy metal and hip hop would have been to the SS imagining the future of culture.
