I’m a big fan of harmony. I like to sing, and it’s more fun to add notes that go along with the melody than to sing the one line. I could get all philosophical about it and say how it’s much like life: how it’s kind of boring if everyone is doing the same thing, and it’s our differences that make it rich and beautiful. I could get deep, but instead, let’s just enjoy this.
There is a guy who made a TikTok video (Beth taught me about TikTok, but I’m not familiar yet) and in this video, he sang a sea shanty: The Wellerman. The tune inspired others to record themselves singing along in harmony, and dang if it isn’t the happiest thing I’ve seen in a long time! People all over the world added their voices and it makes me dance and smile! It gets funny at the end with, in Lloyd’s opinion, “maybe too much dancing cat”, but he is wrong. Dead wrong.
