AnniekNY Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Hi ya Mr C - I don't have a question, just had to pass this story along to you. One of my clients is a tiny three year old girl who is incredibly bright. At the end of our session, she saw my cel phone on the table and opened it up and saw the picture of you and me at WAB. She recognized me and asked "who is dat man?" I explained "that's Eric. He writes my favorite music." She looked really intently at the picture and said "I want to hear Eric's music too." I played her my ringtone "I wanna be with you" and she started dancing and grinning. I think I played it three times before walking her out to Mom. Now, every week, at the end of our session, she asks to see "Eric" and to hear your song. Told you she was bright!! annie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angelina Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Would that be considered CBT? "Carmen Behavioral Therapy".... ..or RET? "Raspberries-Emotive Therapy. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnniekNY Posted November 26, 2007 Author Share Posted November 26, 2007 OH MY GOD!!! YOU GUYS ARE TOO FUNNY!!!! CBT is what we do the most but I had no idea it was inspired by Eric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelina Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 Annie: Dr. Ellis (father of CBT & RET) was a lot like the Raspberries. (Not generally accepted at the time of their creative output...but nonetheless EXTREMELY influential, and adored later on.) John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ecstasy Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 I remember Bessieboo talking about a child that she was caring for having a profoundly positive reaction when listening to Eric's music. Hmmm... you all may be onto something here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherberries Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 My 8 year old son loves the Berries. He's hears them in the car a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kiwi Connection Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 My kids were fed a staple diet of Raspberries and Eric's music when they were little, and most times we had to travel long distances we'd listen to and sing along to their music. The one question that my son asked me was "mum, why does Eric sing about "awful" love? It took me a while to work out that he was talking about "All For Love"!!!!
