I see you like Vangelis,
hear this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ug5TOs_d7U
vangelis is the keyboards player,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3D1-GvSzy38
when Vangelis was young
:startled: Oh how different his style was!, more typical of the 70's. I guess he found himself (with Jon) with his particular style in the Electro era. Yes I liked Jon and Vangelis very much, and find the music very therapeutic and relaxing. Donna summer sang a cover version which I like too 'State of Independence'. :satisfied:Quote:

It did open up. I never saw anyone dance with a chainsaw before, but I've certainly seen a lot of men using them, yes. :) Rural New England doesn't look all that different from rural Ontario.Quote:
Aberdeen: I think I've fixed the glitch in the Canadian rap music url. If you still can't open it, just go to Youtube and do a search for a song called "Out For A Rip". You may not like the language, but you have to see the video if you've never watched people dancing with chainsaws before. Of course, you'd probably have to live in rural Ontario or some similar place in order to understand the iconic role of chainsaws in the lives of people who still partly depend on wood stoves for heat in a cold climate.
My father and uncles bought a lot of wooded ex-farmland when they retired. I think they were trying to get back in touch with their Apennines roots. :)That in combination with the legendary frugality of that region in Italy meant they all put in those furnaces that use both wood and oil. I can't tell you how much time they spent cutting down trees and stocking firewood. Lots of hunting too, until my mom put a stop to it on family owned land. She and I put out a salt lick for the does and fawns. :)
Tsk, Tsk! Whenever I speak to someone who will be in Tuscany, I always recommend that they go listen to the monks at the Abbazia di Sant'Antimo. They're not the most accomplished, but the landscape and the Abbey, combined with the music, makes for a lovely experience...even for non-believers. At least, I've never gotten any complaints.Quote:
That said, the Monty Python clip is very funny. :) I love their stuff. I love John Cleese, in particular.

I went through a short phase of listening to Gregorian chants for relaxation purposes, absolutely magical, more and more in the setting you are describing. On the other hand as much as i can listen to electro pop I simply cannot listen to the group Gregorian, although talented and very popular, it kind of spoils the charm from the original Gregorian style. :unsure:Quote:

One of many songs she did with Dolly Parton and one of my favorites, Linda Rondstadt.

Save the Last Dance For Me:
I think I like her country version even better than the original Drifters version. There are pictures of her from years later. I think she became even more beautiful with age.

Very nice Angela, nice combination. Tuscany has the ideal setting for that. Have not been so far, maybe one day in my bucket list with Florence :)Quote:

She has a Nelson Riddle CD, a Mexican Mariachi type CD, has sung some Gilbert and Sullivan, and has done numerous covers of country classics.

When she was still with the Stone Poneys: Different Drum.
This is an iconic song for her for many reasons, including the fact that she always went her own way, never "played the game".

Later on I might listen to Feuilles Mortes as sung by Yves Montand (born Ivo Livi in Toscana):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xo1C6E7jbPw
English translation:
Fallen leaves
Oh I would like you so much to remember
The joyful days when we were friends.
At that time, life was more beautiful
And the sun burned more than it does today.
Fallen leaves can be picked up by the shovelful.
You see, I have not forgotten...
Fallen leaves can be picked up by the shovelful,
So can memories and regrets.
And the north wind takes them
Into the cold night of oblivion.
You see, I have not forgotten
The song you used to sing me.
(chorus)
This song is like us.
You used to love me and I used to love you
And we used to live together,
You loving me, me loving you.
But life separates lovers,
Pretty slowly, noiselessly,
And the sea erases on the sand
The separated lovers' footprints.
To Autumn-John Keats
1. SEASON of mists and mellow fruitfulness,
Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun;
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eves run;
To bend with apples the moss’d cottage-trees,
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core;
To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells
With a sweet kernel; to set budding more,
And still more, later flowers for the bees,
Until they think warm days will never cease,
For Summer has o’er-brimm’d their clammy cells.
2.
Who hath not seen thee oft amid thy store?
Sometimes whoever seeks abroad may find
Thee sitting careless on a granary floor,
Thy hair soft-lifted by the winnowing wind;
Or on a half-reap’d furrow sound asleep,
Drows’d with the fume of poppies, while thy hook
Spares the next swath and all its twined flowers:
And sometimes like a gleaner thou dost keep
Steady thy laden head across a brook;
Or by a cyder-press, with patient look,
Thou watchest the last oozings hours by hours.
3.
Where are the songs of Spring? Ay, where are they?
Think not of them, thou hast thy music too,—
While barred clouds bloom the soft-dying day,
And touch the stubble plains with rosy hue;
Then in a wailful choir the small gnats mourn
Among the river sallows, borne aloft
Or sinking as the light wind lives or dies;
And full-grown lambs loud bleat from hilly bourn;
Hedge-crickets sing; and now with treble soft
The red-breast whistles from a garden-croft;
And gathering swallows twitter in the skies.
[/LEFT]

So the Junior Eurovision is brought to Malta for the first time thanks to Gaia Cauchi who won the festival with 'The start' last year. This year representing Malta is the talented Frederica Falzon and winner of Ti lascio un Canzone with Vincenzo Carni, presented by the Italian National TV RAI 1. Her song is 'Diamonds'. It gives me the impression that it is a little more then Junior!. Simply love it.
