Never knew that headphones can be so power. Tried it, liked it, bought it. No regrets. Probably will stay with me till I kick the bucket. My first and last.

My friend bought a set of Bose headphones, said they are noise cancelling. He spent over SGD400+ I was aghast! You are another one! I am happy with my $5 ear buds from aliexpress.

Beoplay N95 noise cancelling is 100%. I don't even have to bother with what she's saying at my home because I can't hear nothing except what is being piped from my mobile phone to the N95

Yes, that was exactly what my friend said too! Cancel out his wife's nagging. Hmmmm, maybe I should get one too.

Oh yes, that is a great rendition! From the movie Inside Llewyn Davis. This other version by a few Japs is nice too (from 1990s I think). Plain acoustic version and featured in the movie Bullet Train from 2022.

That must've been an awesome concert. He was like a "Canadian national treasure".

He was elderly, but almost as good as during his prime.
He is a Canadian legend.
May his memory be eternal.
Cheers.

His song writing, voice and guitar playing were top class. But he didn't age well. He was good looking, well into his middle age. Then he kinda shriveled and looked like a "menacing warlock". He will forever be remembered for his beautiful voice and songs.

 

[Charlie99]

Not many individuals are blessed with good genes to age well, look more youthful than their physical age, and able to retain the good features as though they were in their 40s.

The $2.14 earphones from Daiso aren't too bad either.

I believe that all individuals should feel blessed to live beyond age 50, or 60, or past compulsory retirement age.
Whether or not by posting or actually disclosing a person's age, it is inevitable to grow older.
