feeling blue comes from the term for blues music, as that music is mainly sad and melancholic.
I think the music term comes from ‘blue notes’ which are or were lower notes.
the term blue movies comes from the days when film/tv censors would review scripts and score out anything they thought too risky with a blue pencil
Machiavelli says in the Prince that “The ends justify the means” thats great, I know it means that the actions leading up to the end result must be worth it. For example does nuking hiroshima justify the means? However this idea is tied to classical republicanism in a huge way, and I can’t find the connection. Any help from any braniacs?

‘The Old Piano Roll Blues
We’re sitting at the upright
my sweetie and me
pushing on the pedals
making sweet harmony

Anyone help me out here?
Fond memories for me .
Thanks!
