Song Of The Day

Recommended Posts

I was 15 years old when this movie was released, and deeply "in love" with my first serious girlfriend - a relationship that lasted 7 years! Even today I admit to heavy feelings of loss and homesickness when I hear this song - it is hard-wired in there, to those fragile and "eternal" feelings.

 

I hope you will indulge me as I present "Lara's Theme" - the theme-song from "Dr Zhivago."

 

You can Google the Ray Conniff Singers version for a lyrical version, which includes clips from the film. Better still, this is a "must see" movie, and I suggest getting the DVD/VCR if you can, and experience it live.

 

It may or may not be true that first love is the best love, but it seems possible to experience love in many forms, and if you have it, then cherish it.

This would be the first song by a group that my kids like, that I also found palatable!

 

Well I tell a lie ... the first was Black Betty by Spiderbait! And the version I chose for this post is a little more entertaining than staring at the dust-jacket for 3:27!

 

So I guess I can toss them both on the board. Can't give you that much history about either group - I wasn't really interested enough to check 'em out on wiki-p!

 

Seriously though ... I found they just grew on me.

 

Was our music of the 60's and 70's all that much different?

 

Nope!

 

Enjoy.

My wife is a great person - she takes an active interest in my trading,and today I'd like to honor her by posting a song she recommended to me, by that great comedian, Nick Arandes.

 

Nick is probably better known in the US for his stand-up comedy. Until today I had not heard of him or his comedy - never mind that he has a great voice. There is much more to him than comedy, as we shall shortly see.

 

This song will touch you. The guy sings with the the same vigor with which he lives his life ... to the max. Today it was a toss-up between this song, or "Here I am" - another worthy contender for space here. I encourage you to Google that number.

 

Today we are blessed with "I Believe in You" ... for your listening pleasure.

Good morning all - this week I felt another delicious serving of "country" would put us in touch with our inner pathos ... or turn us off for good!

 

But to ease your pain ... or heighten your delight - I have chosen Shania Twain - a Canadian country music icon - to make you choose!

 

First-up we are treated to some of the finest country music accompaniment through the soulful twang of Willie Nelson's guitar, as he supports Shania singing "Blue Eyes Cryin' in the Rain". I probably won't get away with posting any more country stuff here, so will duck for cover after this second number.

 

This time it is Shania Twain singing "Coat of Many Colors" far better than Dolly Parton ever did, though that is debatable because the original vintage Dolly is always going to have its unique character indelibly written in Country Music Halls of Fame.

 

Dolly does a cameo appearance (from the stalls) in this second number!

 

Enjoy!

For all the true believers out there, there is always more CCR available!

 

Some of their classic early stuff still commands good airplay. Not too many bands still endure to this extent.

 

Today we have "I wrote a song for Everyone" and "Someday Never Comes."

 

But really it wouldn't matter which of their songs are put up - it can't be bad ... right?

Just a quick post with a Roy Orbison double. Right until his untimely passing he retained his unique vocal ability, no better illustrated than in these two classic songs:

 

"It's Over"

I have never heard these last few groups - thx heaps for posting.

 

Just wanted to "sober" you all up again with this one from Gordon Lightfoot.

 

The song we all know. Enjoy!

Skip the extra links if you like - just a bit of history, but good to know the background.

What caused the wreck? read on - some of these boat captains are not aware in the conditions, that their ships are taking on water.

The Australian band "Skyhooks" features today.

 

The lead singer, Graeme "Shirley" Strachan died prematurely in a tragic helicopter accident, in August 2001. Not known in the rest of the world - they had a number of #1 hits here. One comment on Skyhooks was: they were "just 5 Aussie blokes having a good time" and that probably sums it up well.

    • MRNA Moderna stock, nice day with a rally off the lower 30.6 double support area, from Stocks to Watch at https://stockconsultant.com/?MRNA
    • Date: 03rd March 2025.   The NASDAQ and Global Stocks Rebound On Tariff Optimism.   Stocks rebound during yesterday’s US session after the US Commerce Chief advises there is room for discussions with tariffs. The NASDAQ initially fell to the lowest price since before the US elections, but quickly rebounded and rose 3.25%. On Wednesday, all stocks are rising in value including in the US, Europe and Asia. NASDAQ Rebounds on Optimism Over Tariff Talks The price of the NASDAQ rose in value as investors took the lower price as an opportunity to buy the discount. The US Commerce Chief said that even though the US will not remove tariffs on Mexico and Canada, they are looking to negotiate and meet them ‘in the middle’. As a result, investors quickly reentered the stock market, particularly the NASDAQ. The NASDAQ previously fell almost 10% from its recent high due to the potential negative effect of tariffs.     Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced retaliatory tariffs on US products worth 155 billion CAD ($107 billion), set to take full effect at the end of the month. Meanwhile, China imposed 10–15% tariffs on various US agricultural goods, including soybeans, corn, dairy, and beef. Experts warn these trade barriers could accelerate inflation. However, the effect on the stock market in the long-term will depend on if the US will negotiate a ‘[middle ground’. Additionally, the GDPNow model from the Atlanta Fed revised U.S. GDP projections down to -2.8% from the previous -1.5%, increasing uncertainty around the Federal Reserve’s next move, whether to maintain high rates to curb inflation or lower borrowing costs to support the economy. The NASDAQ may positively react if the Federal Reserve considers earlier and more frequent rate cuts. The NASDAQ and The Global Stock Market The performance of the NASDAQ depends on if the US can work out a deal with Mexico and Canada. However, the performance of the global stock market indicates that sentiment is improving after the dip. All global indices including the DAX, Euro Stoxx 50, Nikkei225 and Hang Seng are trading higher today. Additionally US Bond Yields continue to indicate the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates at least on 2 occasions. The VIX, which is used as a risk indicator, is trading more than 3.00% lower which is known to be positive for the NASDAQ. This can also be seen in the price movement of the NASDAQ’s most influential stocks which are on the rise in the market pre-open trading hours. Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon and NVIDIA are all trading higher during Wednesday’s Asian and European Session. NVIDIA is witnessing the strongest increase rising 1.70%. Whereas, on Tuesday, only 46% of the most influential stocks saw an increase in value. NASDAQ Technical Analysis Although the NASDAQ and global stocks have shown positive movement in recent hours, they are still in a retracement phase. Based on the medium-term average price and oscillators, the price maintains a bearish bias. Therefore, at first any bearish signals will mainly target the $20,728.00 price which is in line with the trend-line and resistance level. Whereas, if momentum is lost and falls below $20,424.32, sell signals may again materialize. Key Takeaway Points: NASDAQ Rebounds: The NASDAQ surged 3.25% after the US Commerce Chief suggested room for tariff discussions, with investors buying at a discounted price. Tariff Impact: Canada imposed $107 billion in retaliatory tariffs on US goods, while China introduced 10-15% tariffs on US agricultural products, raising inflation concerns. Global Markets Up: Global indices, including the DAX, Nikkei, and Hang Seng, are rising, indicating improving market sentiment after recent declines. Fed Uncertainty & Rate Cuts: The US GDPNow model lowered GDP projections to -2.8%, increasing speculation that the Federal Reserve may cut interest rates in the near future.
