I've never participated in Music Monday and I don't know if t
his post counts to be honest. For those of you who have never listened to the Flaming Lips song Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robot Part I I highly recommend you follow this link. You wouldn't know it by the title or even some of the quirky lyrics but I think it is a very deep and moving love song. A love song about a fighter named Yoshimi who is taking lots of vitamins but a love song none the less. I think different people take different things away from the song and as many times as I've listened to it I can always find something new to discover. I just read in Wikapedia that someone is writing a Broadway musical based on Yoshimi and the album which I think is fascinating.I love the song so much that I named the scarf at the top after it, Yoshimi Battles The Pink Scarf . For one reason it's the right color of pink and I thought it had a bit of a Japanese look to it. I just wanted to share this little gem for those who had written the Flaming Lips off or never heard of them. Let me know what you think.

Thanks for stopping by my blog, I appreciate it and also the happy memory re.The Flaming Lips.
Thank you! Like your stuff. I knit tooooooooooo a lot.
Saw them live once:) Lovely scarf too. I think music is such a source of inspiration to creative people, because we get it, we get the nuances within the music and lyrics. They go hand in hand.
