Lunar Twilight - 16 Night: Tracy Chapma's vexilloid like things in official video

 



Tracy Chapman's song Fast Car captures the themes of Lunar Twilight.  Remember Lunar Twilight is a time when yesteryear's Moon of 2022 returns to sneak back in at night during 2023, when the Sun is not looking. 


In the video there is quick shot of laundry hanging from a line.  Note that hanging laundry is one of the oldest ways of sending secret signals.  But it very unlikely that that was case with this video with Tracy Chapman.

Lunar Twilight 2022 - 15th Night: Moon River

 


Lunar twilight enters the final quarter of the Moon of 2022.  One of the earliest songs to capture the feelings of Lunar Twilight was in the movie Breakfast at Tiffany's.  Here our heroine sings Moon River.


Of vexillological note is the artwork on the wall.  It looks like it might be of some kind of heraldic device behind out bohemian writer, who just happen to overhead our singer.

Lunar Twilight 2002 - 14th Night: Crash and Burn


Lunar Twilight is also a time of hope and remembrance.  It is a time to look soulfully forward while simultaneously looking backward.  The song Crash and Burn by Savage Garden hit a high note with this theme. 

Of vexillological note are the labels on the condiments that appear in the refrigerator while the young boy is being scolded.  

Labels can have logos and are images that are protected by law, with misuse having dire consequences.  



 

Lunar Twilight 2022 - 13th Night: Lonely

 


Akon brings in another Lunar Twilight song that brings in the soft reflection of the Moon.  A time when self reflection and honesty overtake the soul and mind at the return passing of yesteryear, in this case of 2022, that sneaks back into 2023. 
The classic arcade, of vexillological interest are the marquees of the videogames.  You can just barely make out some of the designs.

Lunar Twilight 2022 - 12th Night: Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata 1801

 

Lunar Twilight is upon us.  It is when the spirit of the yesteryear's Moon sneaks into current year during the evening to give an extra long kiss goodbye.  Lunar Twilight and songs of the Moon abound, but they all seem to touch upon a somber and sweet melody of letting go to the sweetness that was yesteryear. 


Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata is a timeless piece that pieces the essetial feels of this personal holiday of remembrance. 

You can just barely make out the logo of the piano.

Lunar Twilight 2022 - 11th Night: Crash Into Me: Dave Matthews

 

Here is another song that tunes into the essence of Lunar Twilight to some degree. 


Fallen embers, glow, sad and soulful the passing of Yesteryear was, for the good bad and silly, 2022 was a strong year to remember.  The passing peace of joy is hard to catch, and harder still to appreciate.  Only after its sweet passing it there a realization that it was always there.

Crosses feature heavy in heraldry, and of relevant meaning Crash Into Me, Mr. Matthews can be seen wearing a ring on the his middle finger.

Lunar Twilight 2022 - 10th Night: to the Moon: Jnr Choi

 



The Moon acts as catalyst on the human soul in a certain way, such that songs dedicated to the Moon are bound by a certain kind of musical gravity.  Jnr Choi, Sam Tompkins To the Moon again puts the right spin for this low-key holiday.   

Several manufactured bottles appear in the video, the logos are certainly trademarked.
