Yesterday once more - The Carpenters #EveryShaLaLaLa
And for a groovy laid-back Sunday morning ....
"When I was young, I'd listen to the radio (using "would" to express a past habit, of course - you listening, English language students?) ....
Using intuition, I'd go for the second option as it's the only one that sounds correct (to me)!
Without the auxiliary "would", it'd be a different kettle of fish I suppose .... we could go down the road of adjective/adverb debates, but it's a road I usually avoid ;)
Yes. It's amazing how many great singers come out of a sad background, or end up in/with one. Does it go with the job, or would statistics show that it's the same % as us mere mortals? I think probably the first - hurting artist and all that! (So, look after yourself!).
Ok Brian, is it "We all would listen to the radio" or We would all listen to the radio" ?

Sad about Karen's anorexia and her brother's drug habit.

THE CARPENTERS, quan els músics s'esforçaven en fer-ho bé. Crec que els primers esgarradors amb èxit foren THE DOORS.
ResponEliminavaig creixer amb els Carpenters de "banda sonora" a casa nostra :)
