Title: When I Grow Up To Be A Man- A new YouTube video
Post by: Summertime Blooz on May 01, 2020, 09:33:24 PM
I'm pleased to announce a new video now on YouTube for the beloved classic hit 'When I Grow Up To Be A Man'. I hope you will enjoy watching it as much as I enjoyed making it.

When I Grow Up To Be A Man:    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eh6m2UC80H0 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eh6m2UC80H0)

I see mine is the second 'Today!' based video of the night after aeijtzsche's impressively studious analysis of 'Don't Hurt My Little Sister'. Weird coincidence, but such a wonderful album to celebrate; truly one of their very best I think.

Another winner!
And how fitting since aeijtzsche mentioned that the next song she will analyze is "When I grow up"

Coming right up, yes.  Two very different ways of engaging with a song!

It's funny, but when making these videos that I do, I invariably develop a much deeper appreciation of the song and the artistry and  intricacies of the record making. You might expect that after listening to a piece of music literally hundreds of times that I'd get sick of it, but that's not what happens with me. You begin to hear the song on a molecular level and it's a different kind of listening experience.

Wonderfully done. I love the illustrations. This was my mother-son dance song at my wedding.
