One Sentence - 000020*

“All you have to do is write one true sentence. Write the truest sentence that you know.” – Ernest Hemingway

It's funny how certain tunes follow you through life, reminding you of previous times you heard them, and adding to the memories.

I'm not really sure where, or when, I first heard "The Flower Duet" (Delibes: Lakmé - Duo des fleurs (Flower Duet)). There is no arguing it is a beuatiful piece of music.

Early experiences have to be the film "The Hunger", a disapointment that the film can only be found (by me at least) in a mono soundtrack version on DVD.

Yes the heavy use in a couple of adverts (BA, and a washing powder advert). Both failing to diminish my love of the music.

Finally, possibly the best end to a computer game ever, Hardw[a]r. At the end of the game (spoilers for a bit of an old game) you have to strip your craft down, and run the gauntlet of every other ship hunting you, as you attempt to deliver the last part of a star ship. You only just make it to the final destination, to be offered a place on the ultimate escape ship. As the ship soars into the sky, the planet is destroyed behind you in nuclear explosions all to the background of this piece of music:

Delibes: Lakmé - Duo des fleurs (Flower Duet), Sabine Devieilhe & Marianne Crebassa

This is todays sentence.  

"The Flower Duet"

* I am incrementing the numbers by tens, in the style of basic programming, so if I think of something else to add, I can later. So as all counting starts at zero, the first is 000000. The second then becomes 000010. Finally this the third is 000020.
