When I'm sixty-four
When Paul McCartney wrote When I'm Sixty-Four he was just a boy, a youth. It is thought that he wrote the melody around the time when he was 14 years old, in 1956, adding the lyrics some 10 years later, with a little help from his friends. So he came up with the tune before Rock'n'Roll came on the scene. The whole world, for McCartney, was about to explode.

The myth of narcissism
In the tapestry of ancient mythology, long preceding the era of ubiquitous selfies, the Greeks and Romans spun a captivating myth about an individual consumed by an excessive fascination with his own image. At the heart of this tale lies Narcissus, a strikingly handsome wanderer traversing the world in quest of love. His narrative takes a dramatic turn when he, after rejecting the advances of a nymph named Echo, chances upon his own reflection in a river. Captivated by the image that met his gaze, Narcissus falls deeply in love with his own reflection. An irresistible allure binds him to this self-admiration, eventually leading to his tragic demise. Legend has it that the spot where Narcissus met his end was marked by the emergence of a flower known as the Narcissus.
