Song Of The Day

Recommended Posts

I rarely get a chance to hear decent music any more so I thought it would be good to have a thread that we can share songs that people might have missed whilst doing other things.

 

My track for today is Lake Of Shadows - Moving Hearts. It's been around for a while but it is new to me:

There is some talking at the start - the song starts 1:17 into this video. I think this is a breathtakingly beautiful song, but I played it to my wife and it did nothing for her - oh well I guess music is a very personal thing!

Ah yes - nice music indeed.

 

Jake will be a good player when he gets older ... lol!

That is seriously excellent playing skill - best I have seen ... thanks Mystic.

 

My high school years were in the late 1960's and so I was fortunate to imprint the best music of the 20th century! (Along with the EType Jag, the Ford Mustang, the Monaro, GTHO Falcon, and ... mini-skirts, Colour TV, Transistor Radios ... Bell bottomed trousers, Paisley shirts, pointy-toe shoes ... * )

 

But this song came along later, and unfortunately I only discovered Dan Fogelberg's music when he passed away prematurely in December 2007.

 

Enjoy one of his best! This song will touch you.

Ingot54,

 

You date yourself. We must be about the same age.

Dan Fogelberg was very cool.

 

I was never into Country, but I didn't realise how much I liked Johnny Cash untill he passed away.

Ingot54,

I was never into Country, but I didn't realise how much I liked Johnny Cash until he passed away.

 

The earlier Johnny Cash appealed to me more than his later stuff, though his music increased in popularity in other quarters. Yet I could not watch that video without everything about the man coming back - Man in Black, Folsom Prison, The Reverend Mr Black, and The Wreck of the Old 97 to name a few ...

 

My main thing has always been 'ballad-type" songs, and as this style only appeals to a few, I won't bore you with some of the stuff in my head!

 

So for today, we can take a trip back to nostalgia-town again, with Simon and Garfunkel ... classic stuff. There were live recordings of this available, but I decided to sacrifice the video content in favor of the pure musical treasure and delight that the original song is.

 

Best appreciated with good headphones this time.

This is turning into a trip down memory lane.

 

I saw Simon and Garfunkel Live in Central Park early 70s.

They finished with "Sounds of Silence" done A Cappella.

 

Man - what a privilege that would have been - I could write on the edge of a postage stamp the number of 'big name' artists I have seen live.

 

Here in Australia we had a late start on the rest of the world - today we can get the good ones to Sydney, Melbourne or Adelaide ... and maybe another capital city or two, but some never make it to 'down under'.

 

This featured artist today toured Oz in 1973 with his 4 brothers - the first Black Group to ever tour here from overseas. Yes, it was The Jackson 5 and although Michael was planning to include Australia in his "This is It" world tour in 2009, he never got to begin the tour.

 

History records he died on 25th June 2009 - three weeks before due to commence his series of 50 concerts, starting from London.

 

The most memorable song for me was this one - and if you are a fan, you will have noticed as he got older, so did the strength of his voice. When choosing the version today, I noted some stronger vocals from him with this song, but the one I think I want to remember him most by, is the youthful version below.

Nice, Certenotti.

 

After that though, I need something lighter ... though it won't suit many!

 

Kids ... don't try this at home!

 

So ... now for something completely different ...

Well .... told you that wasn't for everyone ... and this will similarly not be for fans of popular music.

 

But In the interests of inclusivity, I would like to present what was something phenomenal, though by no means unique.

 

In 1985 Aled Jones, a Welsh boy-soprano, recorded this song: "Walking in the Air". The song was included in the movie: "The Snowman", though in that film it was sung by Peter Auty, not Jones.

 

The song reached No. 5 in the UK charts in 1985.

 

He has recorded twenty-four albums to date, many of which reached gold or platinum status in the UK and Australia.

 

Aled released a 'greatest hits' compilation album: "You Raise Me Up-The Best of Aled Jones" in November 2006, featuring a reprise of his song "Walking in the Air", which has now become a duet between young and present Aled.

 

For your enjoyment.

TradeRunner - I would like to hear more of your kind of music. You gave this thread to the forum, and I hope you don't feel pushed out by the kind of music you may not have intended to be listening to.

 

My contributions (and those of others) have provided a cross section of the creative talents of some of the worlds greatest ... and others! :)

 

I hope you are able to enjoy these:

Hi Ingot

 

I don't feel pushed out at all and I'm liking the wide cross section of music! I remember as a kid buying the sheet music to "walking in the air". I love Santana my favourite Santana track is Oye Como Va.

 

Here is a great track that is used on an advert in the UK and was on last week "Skins" episode:

One of my fav groups ... one of many :)

 

There isn't a "best song" from them - they didn't release a "bad" song!

 

Unfortunately I couldn't grab a good quality concert number, so had to settle for an album spoof!

 

This was released during the Vietnam days, and the comments under the Youtube bear testimony to how music kept the bonds strong amongst the troops, and burned in some memories of goodness amongst the hell of the SE Asian jungles.

 

I was fortunate that my name was by-passed in the ballot, but I knew many men who had been to 'Nam. Unfortunately I could not say any of them was a close friend of mine - these poor souls had no close friends except their own, and never will.

 

For your enjoyment ... and mine - a reminder of a great era in music.

    • I guess US has fund managers and investment banking institutions looking after the portfolios on behalf of their clients.
    • There are many resources related to forex trading available on forums like babypips and forexfactory etc.
    • Candle stick pattern is one of the easiest charting patterns available to learn and make money. However, new traders never learn about the skills needed for earning money but they rush for making money and eventually lose their money.
    • Nothing wrong with being a ‘progressive’. Nothing wrong with being a ‘conservative’.  Very generally, ‘conservatives’ have preponderance of the here and now neurotransmitters, prefer empirical references, the rule of law, and value individual agency (It has been said that conservatives love humans and progressives love humanity) . Very generally, ‘progressives’ are dopaginaric - driven by passion for a better possible future, prefer references to others  (Example Karmela won’t answer questions with facts.  She cites the opinion of 18 ‘experts’), have a penchant for rule by man/mobs not by law , and value ‘societal' agency.  However, excesses of either tendency indicates mental illness, collective malaise, and has consequences.  When either camp is systematically captured by control seekers and/or, situationally by mobs, the whole is lessened. A key sign that is occurring is when one side no longer allows disagreement.  Progressives have  currently gone crazy in those excesses and are no longer allowing anything but unithought... examples - You can still be a vocal pro choice republican.  Try being a vocal pro life democrat. For snicks just try it.  You’ll get cancelled.  Bust a myth about blacks in America, true up the real  history of Republicans ending slavery and what has happened since, how the democrats are the party of the KKK, how Obama did not a fkn thang for blacks in general, be a black republican, etc.    You will get canceled in a heartbeat. Step up and question the social agendas of federally subsidized schools at a board meeting... get treated like shit and also get an immediate case number with the FBI ... Question the requirements to watch and lickkiss the 'rainbows' and also make sure your kids show up for it, not to mention fund transitions out of your pocket and see what you get ‘labeled’ Question mainstream media bias - even just to mention that biased, agenda driven narrative is different from truth in reporting - and see what happens to your voice... Excesses have consequences... imbalances have consequences... just sayin’
