The Day The Music Died
‘TO paraphrase Don McLean, the day the music died for Joseph and Elaine Wright was the day their neighbours took delivery of an upright piano.
Time to face the music |
The Scarborough couple, described as music lovers in the Mail, were then treated to 13-year-old Sophia Havilands many attempts to master the Celine Dion tune My Heart Will Go On.
The works of the Canadian chanteuse are murderous to music at the best of times, but in the fingers of young Sophia, music was being read its last rights and lowered into a bottomless pit.
So the Wrights complained, and a noise abatement order was slapped on Sophia and her tribute to Celine.
Take it as read that Sophias parents are not best pleased. Father Clive, described somewhat ominously as a part-time musician, plans to appeal against the order.
We are a musical family, he claims, before saying how the Wrights complaint is one rooted in jealously.
Its hard to know what to think having not listened to young Sophia. But the wannabe star should not be too downhearted. In a way she has achieved musical fame already. And in todays music business, thats the most important thing of all…’
