   Maurice Kinal to Nancy Backus   
   singin' the same ol' cowboy song

   Hallo Nancy!   
      
    NB> Knowing the back story can make a difference...   
      
   Perhaps, but in this case it was a totally random event given that I was only   
   there for the chatter and had no expectations for any music that they were   
   featuring.  Thus the line itself is what caught my ear as they had already   
   stated the song was the theme for "The Sopranos" and at that time there was no   
   mention of the author or his slant on the song.  If anything I should have   
   been prejudiced against it given that I have such a low opinion of TV and   
   anything it might have to portray about New Jersey gangsters which I believe   
   the show is about.  It was much, much later and on a different show - Same   
   radio station CBC Radio One - where I heard the interview and the real story   
   behind "Woke Up This Morning".   
      
    NB> wouldn't likely be running that sort of show   
      
   Offhand I cannot think of a TV show with a classical music theme.  Many movies   
   but no TV shows.  What comes to mind were all the Disney animations done to   
   symphonic compositions.   
      
    NB> If I have the opportunity present   
      
   Understood.  In my case it was totally random which is perhaps the best way.    
   Also having everything going against it and it still made an impression might   
   also be required to add additional meaning to the impression.   
      
   Het leven is goed,
