As Rush said, every time I hear the name Boko Haram...I think of "A Whiter Shade of Pale."

Well here it is...and better than ever.

She said there is no reason, but the truth is plain to see.

I had great music when I was a very young kid. I think I was singing this in the car as a kindergarten age kid.

I’ve been thinking this for over a week. I’m relieved there are others warped as I.

The song was based on a story by Gregory Chaucer if Im not mistaken.

When I was learning the keyboard, I used to try to play the organ part.

The bass line is inspired by a piece by Johann Sebastian Bach...with the rather naughty title of “Air on a G-String”.

But I think it’s a bout a violin! LOL!
