Dan, nope it's not your well-dodgy memory...it's mine.  I sat
and listened to that song just one too many times last night.
I then started to play around with the bass and and treble, and then
it came out clear as day (3.40 in the morning I discovered
this), and they did sing "If you're all alone and the pretty
birds have flown..."  I stand corrected, and think I would've
gone through life blind to the truth.  Thanks.

Do you call people from NZ Kiwi? It's so popular!

Anyway, I want to tell a story behind the name Kiwi fruit. 

Kiwi fruit was discovered a decade ago in the southwestern part of
China, originally named after a kind of monkey which feed on this fruit.
It was exported to Australia and NZ, where it was then shipped to the
US. US merchants asked a NZ bussinessman about the name of the fruit.
Due to the rough relations between China and US then, this New Zealander
did not tell the American that it came from China. Instead he told the
American that it was "Kiwi fruit", because the name "Kiwi" had just come
across his brain(or maybe he saw a kiwi bird, so was it alleged).

So, the Chinese monkey fruit became kiwi fruit. And not many people know
that it originated in China.

About the misconception behind Karaoke, a lot of people think that it
came from China(or HongKong perhaps), which it in fact came from Japan.
Surprise?

And there's the misconception that pizza came from Italy, and more...

It's ironic that you ask, the University of Chicago Choir and Orchestra does an annual Messiah each year within the world renowned Rockefellar Chapel (which
is across the street from my dorm... it's perfect because it's been designed
after the same gothic cathedrals of medieval times... for that much, the entire
campus has been...)  Anyhow, in its day and age, the Messiah was a happening
jam... sort of like the pop rock you hear on the radios today... It was really
cool... While performing his masterpiece for the Emperor of France, Handel was
understandably nervous... If the emperor, for whatever philistine reason, felt
the work was boring or what-have-you... Well, that would've been the end of 
Handel all together... Well, imagine his glory when, during the Hallelujah
Chorus, the Emperor was so enthralled and enraptured by the work that he 
immediately shot up out of joyous and profound celebration!  Well, no one was
foolish enough to counter the Emperor's personal appeal for the work, so they 
all stood as well (to not to have done so would've been a HIGH faux pas... and
rather unexcusable...)

Ever since, this tradition has remained, even though through the years the
tone of reasoning behind it all has shifted from doing what was the thing to
do to offering respect to the mastermind behind the requiem, to actually doing
for some religious reasons... Today, it's sort of a mixture of all of this.

And now you know!
