Oh!

I realized right after the posting the last post that the best song to re-start with would be the song that inspired the name of this blog. It's "Major to Minor" by the Settlers, a mid-sixties English pop band. The song is from the volume two of the excellent "Ripples" series of obscure Brit sixties pop singles, I think drawn from the Pye Records catalog. This is the best volume of seven--they're out of print but worth seeking out.

But also, from Cole Porter:

There's no love song finer;
but how strange the change
from major to minor
