A Little Less Conversation

After leaving the verse on a 'D' chord, we move into the bridge with a 'B minor' chord with the opening salvo 'some quiet please' and then back to the 'D' for 'a little less conversation'. Staying true to the theme, it is envisaged that a crowd has assembled to witness this 'second coming', but the merry throng are a rambunctious lot and therefore multiple conversations are taking place. The narrator is desperate for some hush and basically tells them to shut up. This is the second reference to an Elvis song. The next lines 'get off your knees, rise up in celebration' maintains the imagery of reverential people joining in praise for the 'New Elvis'. Writing this piece reminds me of 'The Life of Brian' which has to be one of the funniest films ever made and was financed by George Harrison. This is not a Beatles blog however, although they are my favorite band. I also love Monty Python but we digress. I encourage any readers of this blog to get in touch with me. So far we have been graced with then presence of hits from the US, the U.K., Australia, New Zealand, Germany, France and Russia, although I imagine the non-English speaking countries would have been by accident.
