Commission by EerieEden: Thanks for all the joy they're b...
... bringing.
So, getting back to convention commissions,
EerieEden was one of the people I ran into at Fur-Eh who took a take-home digital commission for me, and the 'Jenora, dancing' request there was just completed. The fact that this and the previous image were both pretty blatantly musical was entirely coincidence, but one of those fun little bits of synchronicity that happens every so often. So, of course, I had to use the next line from the song for the commission title here.

"Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk
She says I began to sing long before I could talk
And I've often wondered, how did it all start?
Who found out that nothing can capture a heart
Like a melody can? Well, whoever it was, I'm a fan!"
I've been so lucky, for you are the girl with golden hair. <3

Also I think you said synchronicity, you did! <3

It does go much further into abstraction than a parallel remix of Thank You For The Music than the DJ Ensemble ABBA remixes I posted your way; I wasn't sure about the first bit of the song's remix with singing alone but I stuck it through until the electronica kicked in, and I am happily in love with it. Being that it was the song your drawing's title referenced it seemed reasonable to share it with you, in case in set your own enjoyment to purpose.
I wish the playlist for DJ Ensemble's album hadn't accidentally (or intentionally) overwrote their remix of 'Dancing Queen' with a duplicate; I have the album on CD and was listening to part of it on my trip to the first in-office appointment I've had with my psychiatrist in more than two and a half years yesterday morning, and I was very fond of the handful of songs- including Dancing Queen- I had the time to listen to on a pleasantly speedy ride up Yonge Street on Line 1.

I am very fond of Africa but my favourite Toto songs are Hold The Line from their debut album in 1978 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htgr3pvBr-I) and a less well-known song from a much later compilation album of theirs, Animal https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymPTkiGosiw which first appeared on the compilation album Past to Present in 1990. (The Youtube video's cover art is for Toto I (1978) and not Past To Present (1990).)

A Spaceman Came Travelling and Robert A. Heinlein's Stranger In A Strange Land were the direct inspirations for my science-fiction novella, almost wholly set on a park bench at the top of Riverdale Park East's hill bordered by Broadview Avenue in 1978, titled Benchwarmer. One of my favourite bands, responsible for the remixes of several songs I love and the remixes themselves I'm very fond of, including Jeremy Soule's Skyrim (The Dragonborn Comes) called Celtic Woman, remixed A Spaceman Came Travelling on their 2012 album Believe, and hearing it for the first time got me working on Benchwarmer.
“Now let me get something straight: you are not in my debt. You can't be.
Impossible; because I never do anything I don't want to do, nor does anyone.
But in my case, I am always aware of it. So please don't invent a debt that does not exist.
Or before you know it you will be trying to feel gratitude.[/i]
And that is the treacherous first step downward to complete moral degradation.”

It's been a while since I heard A Spaceman Came Travelling; I've only got three Chris de Burgh albums here (Into the Light from 1986, which has Lady in Red; Power of Ten from1992, and This Way Up from 1994). A friend of mine had the earlier 'Spanish Train and Other Stories' album that one was from, but I don't seem to have that myself.
As for the Stranger in a Strange Land quote... Heinlein was always an interesting person. I don't agree with all of his politics (and honestly Heinlein's politics changed significantly over the course of his life), but he obviously put more thought into them than most people do.

The only one of those three Chris de Burgh studio albums you've mentioned that I'm immediately familiar with by name is Into The Light, which I don't have a copy of myself but am very familiar with Lady In Red and am rather fond of it myself. Spanish Train and Other Stories is the one physical Chris de Burgh album I own; it's on a mid-1980s compact disc that I bought gently-used at a yard sale ten years ago or so, picked out because A Spaceman Came Travelling is my favourite song of his, with second place being Don't Pay The Ferryman on 1982's The Getaway which I would eventually like to find a copy of on CD.
My copy of Stranger In A Strange Land was a gift from my mother on my birthday in 2017, the year I turned 40. It was one of the only gifts she ever deliberately went out and looked for that had to do with my interests in science-fiction or gaming, and it was because my older brother Robert told her about it in conversation and in discussing it, wanted to get me a copy if I had not read it myself; Rob told her that as far as he knew I had not, and he knows me well enough to have a good sense of that.
She went to Bakka Books, the only time I believe she has ever been on their successive premises, and bought my copy there from them. Michael Valentine Smith as my brother described the Man from Mars to her, sounded to her like Heinlein was talking about me, a human being who needed to be taught to be human, to speak as other humans do and interpret meaning from those words and his own; an alien to his Earthling kin, not by his flesh but in perception of self, and the wonderful story he needed to tell and share and would share, but had to struggle against the Titan of his own Martian understanding again and again to tell it.
She felt I would appreciate that gift and the comparison she posited, and I daresay that I did.

The texture on the tail for fur is quite the artist's gift for this, along with the rest of the ensemble.
Speaking of ensemble, this Jenora really opted for the 'small, red with white polka dotted dress' instead of the mainstay.
And those note flies are fluttering past her again. Could be treble.

Well, there is the Alto clef as well as the Treble and Bass... it's kind of in the middle, with middle C being in the middle of the staff, and is used for some specific instruments. So I suppose music written to stay entirely within the staff used by that clef would be Alto-native music?
