I found this little gem of a song, called Hold on you little tomato by Pink Martini, this is my take on that.
I was looking forward to this week, especially Tomato songs, but I threw my back out on Saturday and I can't sit still long enough to play a tune without crying out in pain.
But I can imagine a number of other Seasonistas doing a fine job of Guy Clark's Homegrown Tomatos and/or the old standard by George Gershwin and his lovely wife Ira Let's Call The Whole Thing Off. (You say "tomayto" and I say "tomahto") Those are my requests. Anybody?
I hope I'm feeling better before the week's over. I have a few more tomato songs. . . and I did realise that George and Ira were brothers - just being a smartass to forget about the pain.

lol!I didn't add any overdubs, though, because that would have involved listening to it again.

there is a great book called "fried green tomatoes at the whistle stop cafe" and they made a wonderful film out of it too... here's a bee's eye view of a little homemade song inspired by the love story at the heart of it all...
I grew to hate the music of the Flaming Lips when I was a college student in my early 30s. I used to study at an on-campus vegan cafe that usually played great local music on their stereo. But they also played a Flaming Lips album that I grew to despise as I heard it more and more.
I'm also pretty sure I hate their music because I'm so jealous of their success. All the bands I was in back in the 90s played similar indie pop music, though without the appeal or quality of Flaming Lips' music.
Before their music started sounding bad to me, I liked some of their songs. Like this one that has a scientific, searching-for-a-cure theme that works well for me today - I'm going to get my second coronavirus vaccination shot in a few hours.
Stay safe and healthy, y'all!
Hi Ralf!
Beautiful bring as always! I'm trying to leave a comment on YouTube but you have comments turned off.
Hope everything went well with the vaccine!
Soooooooooooo many great lines and moments, I've read the book once and watched the film many times!Toowanda
You're just a bee charmer, Idgie Threadgoode. That's what you are, a bee charmer.
