" LONDON (Reuters) - The death of former British Prime Minister
Margaret Thatcher has sent a 74-year-old song, "Ding Dong! The Witch Is
Dead", flying into the UK charts, figures showed on Wednesday.
The song from the 1939 film "The Wizard of Oz" was top of Amazon's most downloaded chart on Wednesday after a social media campaign to promote the upbeat track as a way for detractors to "celebrate" the death of Britain's most divisive postwar leader. "

ReplyDeleteWhen I saw all of the cheering almost celebratory smiling faces of Boston locals on the TV news after the capture of the suspects it didn't feel right to me. I felt upset - people have died, hundreds have been maimed, lives have been changed in an awful way. Surely not a time to celebrate.
I also didn't like the Thatcher 'celebrations' that she was dead.
There is too much hate in the world at the moment.
You're right Mike,and there is a lot of strange syncs falling into place in this mad world.
ReplyDeleteJonathan Winter's passing seems to highlight something here especially as he was one of the main stars of
"It's a Mad,Mad,Mad World".
And there is something very telling about a photo of a fast food restaurant in West with a mushroom cloud over it's roof,where you order your meals from your car by pressing a red button...not to mention they sell
"Believe It,or Not!"
meal deals there as well.
The Wicked Witch
(Thatcher funeral?)tries to set the Straw Man on fire before she is trumped with water
(Watertown shootout?)plus we have the big "W" where the treasure is hidden (oil ?)in the movie
"It's a Mad,Mad,Mad World",which is a road movie,by the way.
And of course W's talk and plans from way back which includes
North Korea in that "Axis of Evil".
"Dead End Drive-in" seems to be a good analogy of the way things are at the moment.
The hunt for oil and $s is what's driving the planet into the ground.
We had better find some alternative to this madness pretty fast...faster than we can press the red button at a Sonic Drive-in food diner,I think.-)
@Mike,
ReplyDeleteI just realized that the boat the bomber was caught in was at a house on 67 Franklin Street in Watertown.
So there is a sync for you.
