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.

    • Date: 8th November 2024. Can Trump Bring Oil Prices Down To $40? NASDAQ Renews Its Highs! The NASDAQ, Dow Jones and SNP500 continue to renew their all time highs for a second consecutive day. NVIDIA tops the NASDAQ as the most influential stock, surpassing Apple and Microsoft. Crude Oil prices break below the ascending triangle pattern as investors closely monitor any signals from President-elect Trump on how he plans to bring oil prices down. The Federal Reserve indicates that it will keep lowering interest rates but plans to pause for an extended period at a certain point. NASDAQ – The NASDAQ Continues To Renew Price Highs! The NASDAQ continues to increase in value and renew its all time high for a second consecutive day. This week the index has risen 5.70% and investors are contemplating if the index will retrace this Friday due to the large impulse wave. However, investors will be looking for larger downward momentum before determining whether a retracement throughout the day is possible. One of this week’s best performing stocks for the NASDAQ which is gaining more momentum and attention is Tesla. During the presidential race, Elon Musk, the company’s CEO, endorsed Trump’s candidacy, contributing $75 million to his campaign. In return, Donald Trump pledged to appoint Musk to lead the Commission on Government Efficiency, which oversees budget expenditures. This appointment would enable Tesla Inc. and Space Exploration Technologies (SpaceX) to secure new contracts. Over the past decade, collaboration with the government has brought the company $15.4 billion. Investors continue to also evaluate the comments from the Federal Reserve on Thursday evening. At a press conference, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell stated that while inflation remains slightly above the 2.0% target, monetary authorities are confident it is under control. However, the growth rate of consumer prices, excluding food and energy costs, is still “somewhat elevated.” Powell added that despite the current easing of monetary policy, officials are prepared to pause if macroeconomic data suggest the need. The Fed is also considering a scenario in which borrowing costs hold steady at current levels during its December meeting. Powell further noted that actions by the incoming government and Congress could affect the economic outlook over time, and forecasts of these impacts will be incorporated into models that assess various aspects of the US economic system. As mentioned above, investors are taking into consideration if the price will retrace after such a strong upward trend throughout the week. However, elements do still continue to point to short term upward price movement. For example, the VIX Index continues to fall as have bond yields. The VIX index trades 3.00% lower on Friday and the 10-Year Bond Yields has fallen 37 points.   Crude Oil – Can Trump Achieve $40 Per Barrel? The price movement of Crude Oil over the past week has formed an ascending triangle pattern. However, the support level was broken this morning after the corrective wave surpassed 1.75%. Oil traders worry that the new US President-elect will put considerable pressure on the Chinese economy. This can potentially lead to a sharp drop in oil demand from the world’s largest importer. The EIA’s weekly report yesterday showed an increase in oil reserves by 2.149 million barrels, much higher than the expected 0.300 million barrels, with gasoline reserves rising by 0.412 million barrels and distillates by 2.947 million barrels. The decline could have been steeper, but Hurricane Rafael had closed 17% of oil production capacity in the Mexican Gulf. Always trade with strict risk management.
