All - had a great conversation with Tor Harald (Norway) on the compositional genius of one Ron Mael. He's been thinking about this topic, believe it or not, since he was five years old!

I know a lot of us talk about, and think about, this topic quite a bit. So I hope you enjoy the conversation and please do subscribe and share if you're so inclined.

Thank you and happy holidays!

What a deep thinking person Tor is. Conveys such specifics of composition, song structure and vocals.

Thanks Monte

It's incredible that Tor Harald has been pondering this topic since he was just five years old. Flappy Bird

Thank you Toughest Girl in Town! That's a great name btw - has always been a favorite Sparks song, and seeing them performing it live was such a treat!

I appreciate the feedback and as I indicated before, it's a topic I'd like to explore more deeply. Tor was magnificent for sure!
