My Music Savant

Kenneth has this amazing ability to know songs and artists. It's pretty cool. There's this station that will tell you every artist and title after the song, Kenneth can do the same thing. He can do it after the first few bars of a song, a lot of times even before the vocals start. He's amazing. Sometimes he can tell you the album name and the track number. Last night we had to go run some errands. When we got back we ended up sitting in the garage for another 1/2 hour playing Name That Tune. He has the most trouble with my oldies songs and artists: James Taylor, Howard Jones, Patsy Cline, Chicago, Bob Marley. He also has problems with my Jazz & R&B music: Harry Connick Jr., Joss Stone, Alicia Keys. He knows that he doesn't know them though, so he guesses them when in doubt. He even knows music that we don't own. You really should play with him sometime. It's fun. You too will be amazed and proud that you know my music savant.
