Alpo Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 This pops up, often, on this board and on just about every other one I read. "What is your favorite" lever gun/Smith & Wesson revolver/single action/sports car/action movie star/whatever? And the responses will answer their favorite - 73 Winchester in 32/20, or 940 9mm J frame, or a six and a half inch Old Model 41 magnum, or a Shelby Cobra, or Chuck Norris. But long about answer number three or four people will start putting a list. Their top three, or maybe their top ten. But it seems that no one can stick to "your favorite", which would be the number one. I wonder why this is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocWard Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I'd be kind and say it is because people have a very difficult time picking a favorite, as opposed to just not reading the question posed, but... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdeacon Joe Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 "Favorite" often depends on mood and situation. In the "Favorite Sean Connery Movie" thread, I listed three because there is so little difference in how much I enjoy them. It depends on my mood.

Chili Ron Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Howdy, If you want a tuff choice try most beautiful girl. Try to pick between the girls in the Bond movies. That should take your mind off the virus. Best CR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typically, if I can't choose just one, in trying to keep with the theme, I always preface it that I can't choose just one. If the other answers are any indication, many just base their answer on the thread title! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MizPete Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Dirty Dan Dawkins: I can play that. My favorite (to date) are Sheep Shall Safely Graze (which my boss/bestie sang at my daughter's wedding), Break Forth, O Beauteous Heaven'ly Light, or Concerto for 3 Violins & Orchestra/Continuo. Soooooooooooooooo many choices. My idea of Heaven is sitting under a shade tree outside JSB's conservatory window with a bunch of cats on my lap.

Soooooooooooooooo many choices. My idea of Heaven is sitting under a shade tree outside JSB's conservatory window with a bunch of cats on my lap. That’s a fantastic fantasy of heaven. I hope you are rewarded with that. I have no musical talent. Mostly due to lack of commitment and sticking with it. Partly due to moderate to severe hearing loss in my left ear, moderate in my right, although that’s not too much of an excuse as my grandmother was deaf and played an old Silvertone F hole arch top guitar off of vibration. She was no expert or anything great but she did it nonetheless. My grandfather played electric organ and introduced us all to classical music. He'd crank it up and bang out Malagueña or some Bach piece and the bass notes could be heard a mike away. He was, again more or less a novice, nothing great but played ok. I remember the whole house would shake and the single pane windows would rattle. Consequently I came to particularly like Bach above all classical composers, especially his organ pieces. I like baroque music in general regardless the composer. Really fond of baroque guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finagler 6853 Life Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 I don't have too many favorites. I like lots of things. Depends on what mood I'm in. I do have a favorite wife. Been married to her 41 years, so she must be my favorite. I like her so much I married her twice, just to make sure. I have a favorite oldest daughter and a favorite youngest daughter. I have a favorite oldest son and a favorite youngest son. Other than that, SQUIRREL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I have an ear, my Aunt Gerry discovered early. I took two years' worth of piano lessons before the teacher figured out I couldn't read a note. Took another five & corrected that. But I am a very technical player - hence my love of baroque. I love the structure and intricacy. & the way Bach has every instrument play a melody instead of relying on continuo. & the way Bach can be played on ANY instrument - I've heard Little Fugue in G Minor played on kazoos & it was fantastic! You, too, have some marvelous musical memories. Stringed instruments remain a mystery to me - you have to MAKE the correct note instead of just land on it. I did not have an organ but understand the concept of rattling the windows. My 1989 Baldwin upright has incredible bass. I didn't rattle windows but I had a cat who loved to lie on top when I played Rachmaninoff Prelude in C# Minor - I'm sure it was due to vibration. I'm so blessed that Grandson #2 has the talent Aunt Gerry looked for in me. Boy is musical. Just has it in his head & it has to come out. He'd make music if he had only tissue paper & a comb.
