My mom bought this movie for us and often told me that this was my favorite movie as a child. She even gave me a book with sound buttons for certain pages that went with the movie, and it would always run out of battery because I used it so much. I can still remember how it looked and felt in my hands as a kid. This scene was super cool to me and I remember wishing I had the clock sounds in my little book. Since that wasn't the case, I instead would sing along with the movie, making similar noises that I heard, in the rhythms that each sound would be in. My favorite part was when the hunter is firing at the bird, because it was in, what I thought was, a completely different rhythm than the rest of the clocks (3/8 against 2/4), but it still worked out in the end, and I thought that was the coolest thing. This occurrence of me memorizing certain songs and aspects of songs would always be present after this, and would prove really helpful in the years to come. The more I learned about music, the more I actually could understand what I was hearing/singing. Today is actually my mom's birthday, so I just wanted to share this story of one of the many small things she did that made a huge difference in my life. Happy birthday mom!
