I was riffing, one does not have time to google specifics when riffing.
I could've said flower I suppose.
I thought it a cool allusion but it's probably just schmaltz.

Music was the language that came before words, ye I know, schmaltz.

Dave:
QuoteA thought just hit me (ouch): how much of ability of music to invoke an emotiial stste is due to the actual notes and their relationships? 

Of course it is so
it is so obvious
it gets used,
moves them
is much repeated
the kids turn away
variations introduced
moves them
is much repeated
becomes schmaltz
variations introduced
moves them
is much repeated



Take my advice, don't listen to me.
