Shadow Puppet Storyteller

Sir Michael Palin

Soundtrack of my Life

If I am true to the 2020 theme of The Soundtrack of Your Life , rather than twitterpated Valentine's Day-induced randomness, then I must explain. Monty Python references are woven into my life generally, but in 2019, I recall, (Thank you, Facebook timeline) Michael Palin accepted a Knighthood. Upon this occasion, I could not help but have this minstrel-sung diddy come to mind. Therefore, you are now in my vicinity and must be infected with it playing in your head as well.

Hold! should you try to run, I will be forced to draw my sword you knave...though considering my lack of any type of sword weilding practice, I expect you (or, I) will receive but a flesh wound.

Therefore, fear not! I invite thee to remember the Story of Sir Robin (a young Sir Michael Palin)



The Minstrel (Neil Innes) is the the actual songwriter of "Brave Sir Robin" from the 1975 film, Monty Python and the Search for the Holy Grail
