New music

I recently acquired a $10 iTunes gift card. This is nice. I bought one album, Mozart's Requiem, performed by Academy of St. Martin in the Fields, led by the incomparable Sir Neville Mariner. Here is a clip from the film Amadeus, (a great film--you should watch it) featuring some of the music--it gives me chills.


That album cost only $8, so I had $2 to go. I purchased what may very well be the greatest pop song ever (at least according to Brian Wilson, who knows a thing or two). The opening drum beats are amazing.


I had $.77 left (after tax). So I bought a $.69 song because I could buy no other.
