I am the Real Thing by corymbia

I am the Real Thing

'Tryin' hard to understand the meaning that you'll see in me
Tryin' hard to understand the meaning that you'll see in me
There's a meaning there, but the meaning there doesn't really mean a thing
Come and see the real thing, come and see the real thing, come and see
I am the real thing!

Oo mama mow-mow
Oo mama mow-mow
Oo mama mow-mow
Oo mama mow-mow....
Johnny Young, most famously sung by Russell Morris....

I see that the weekly theme is 'music' and given that I am more a fan of oblique references to a theme than obvious* ones, I have gone for fractals and some of my most favourite psychedelic rock from 1969.
(*That being said, you can still expect to see a shot of my old piano sometime this week)

Russell Morris would be very proud - so would Molly Meldrum who produced it. Another funky shot with the orb thing.

@pizzaboy Thanks.
I have always loved this song. Apparently the cost to produce this one single was equivalent to that for a whole album at the time - well worth it I say!

A beautiful psychedelic look, too! Reminds me of some album cover from that era. Maybe a Cream album? If I remember, I'll holler! Great job, Amanda!

I'm feeling very funky and so 1960s right now. Sorry I haven't been around much lately. Work, tax season and health have been a hinderence.
