The other day, Nana brought Jamie home and had written on a piece of paper 'Somebody that I used to Know'. Nana wondered if it was a TV theme or something, as it had been on the radio and Jamie had got all excited about it. Apparently he had said something along the lines of 'the painting man' and Nana had got very confused about what he meant.
The song that he was referring to was: www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cih2HRCXLA Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know (feat. Kimbra). We have seen this video a number of times on the music channels and we all love the song and the video. Its very 80's!!
Somebody wrote about it: The symbolism in this video is relevant to the song. The covering of his body in a camouflaging paint may be a loss of innocence, but it's more obviously a loss of identity. The "somebody that he used to know" no longer acknowledges his existence. She pays him no more mind than the wall behind him. Nothing is colder than being completely shut out. Addictive song. :)

And recently we have been in Asda and Jamie noticed that this was the song being played before I did. Then he was upset when it stopped and another song started!
It amazes me that Jamie can pick out this song he likes, amongst all the other songs that are played on the radio every day. Is he showing early signs of an ear for music?
His dad is still playing in a local band http://thewarbirds.co.uk/ as well as being involved in a few other 'projects'. Could it be hereditary?
