If I Could Smile I'd Let You Know

Thank you for looking.

There's something of an accidental coincidence about the the titles of two of the pictures I released tonight. Both titles come from the lines of songs, this one from The Lemonheads 'If I Could Talk I'd Tell You' and the other Simon and Garfunkel's 'Old Friends' from which the title of their great album Bookends is taken. The coincidence lies in a bit of music trivia where The Lemonheads breakthough single, and probably most successful song 'Mrs Robinson' is, of course, a cover of a Simon and Garfunkel song which famously featured on the soundtrack of The Graduate starring Dustin Hoffmann. I've only just realised the link myself and thought it was interesting that pictures of trees were also in fact connected by a branch of the musical family tree.
