chimes

yesterday we went to pick up the car from the repair shop. we had taken it to the dealership for this repair and they have a “clock tower” outside on the grounds. amusingly, this clock tower plays songs with a chime sound and not just to mark the hour, but all…the…time. when i had dropped the car off a few days earlier, i remember hearing ‘somewhere over the rainbow’ among other songs. they’re a bit ethereal and not always easy to identify, so yesterday when we picked up the car, i was a bit stumped at first. then, as i continued to listen, i realized that it was john denver’s ‘sunshine on my shoulders’ song. wow. that sounds really weird in chime.
