Ted's Comments

There's a spoon hidden in the first e.

I'll never forget the day I first saw the hidden arrow. Well, okay, it's maybe not as important to us as it was to the designers, but still cute.

You don't like my expression of what my first impression was. That's fine with me. It is a response to the glowing expressions of affirmation for what is essentially an 8-yr-old girl dressing up. She may not be pretending she's Lady Gaga, but does it amount to anything different than any other dressup play?
I just wonder how long until it becomes an unhealthy obsession.

Good question, Alex. I think it was the pose on the left that did it for me. Cool thing to do at home. Taking it to school every single day kinda takes it to another self-absorbed look-at-me level. Putting it on the Internet as if it's something notable? Maybe a little overkill.
And is she really learning about the influential women of the 20th century simply by copying their outfits? It sounds noble and empowering, but it amounts to little more than a fashion show.

No, it is easy. I think they chose it because it's familiar to people, but it doesn't really show off the skill of the pianist. Like I said, if I can play it, it ain't difficult.
It's one of those pieces (sorry for saying "song" before - I'm just not as clever as you) that maybe sounds complicated but is as easy as Chopsticks for a professional. Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D Minor and Widor's Toccata come to mind (I have more of a pipe organ background with music).
