Every other year, I listen to all of the music in my collection. Often, I discover new things about music I'm familiar with or learn new things about songs I'm not as familiar with. This is where I'll be documenting that.

Bread's "Aubrey"
This morning I listened to a compilation album of Bread and noticed something in "Aubrey." The "past" in the line "Catching all the words but then the meaning going past" has a glissando; it's sung to three pitches rather than just one. It slides from F# to E to D, which conveys the movement of passing that the lyric mentions.

Bread's "London Bridge"
This morning I listened to Bread's Anthology. I'm fairly familiar with this album, but for the first time I realized that during some sections of "London Bridge," there's a descending phrase in the backing vocals (I'm pretty sure it's B, A, G#), reflecting the lines about London Bridge falling down in the lyrics.
