The Logical Song

I’ve been thinking about this song for some time now. Today I was feeling almost logical about a lot of things, remembering high school algebra and how I got the answers by using logic rather than the algebraic formula (and go figure that one!), and had spoken to my son when the conversation turned to my use of logic rather than formula. He couldn’t understand how I got the correct answers that way and I never knew for sure, just that it seemed more logical than using the formula. Incidentally, I got straight “D”‘s in algebra for that, saved from the “F” by the correct answer.

So after my logical day I decided to look up this song by Supertramp and post it for all to enjoy. Try figuring out how logic can get to the correct algebra answer while you listen, or like me, just sit back and enjoy the song.

Supertramp!

As usual it was a job just getting the video on here, but it seems to have worked out after a couple of tries. I had to click on it a couple of times to make it play, but that could just be me. I found lyrics but lost them when working on getting the video, so that will be my next challenge — getting the lyrics posted under the song. Wish me luck on that one.

hmmm, not sure what will happen after this is played the first time. Two other things pop up on the screen after the song stops but since I didn’t want to jinx it I didn’t click to see what happens. Sure would hate to lose it immediately. But, it might be possible to try — nope! Not me. And by now that might have disappeared, since a friend of my daughter’s just came in to visit for a while.

Okay, I just found out it realy doesn’t do anything to click on the screen. But there is a whirligig at the bottom that will replay the song. By golly, I think I got it right for a change.
