http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YI7nixC_CNA
Im going through an electro pop trip at present, a craze of the 80's, and enjoying it. It will not last long I think and soon be back to my folk soft Jazz and classic.....:smile:.....(I think :thinking:)

And this came a little later by Mike oldfield, and surely its my one of my top favourites, nothing too complex, flowing great combination of electronics, guitar and voices.

I'll definitely be listening to some of the artists whose songs have been posted.
From Cronus to Zeus to Christ... Land of Epirus.

Something went wrong it was a nice picture...
If someone is efficient and by its kindness could help...?
A love song from the same region. Polyphonic Epirotan -(wolf singing). The lyrics are colliqual greeks i tried to translate not succesfully enough.
(lyrics)
Τι κακό έκανα ο καημένος και με λένε όλοι φονιά.
Μην να σκότωσα κανέναν, μην αφίλησα καμμιά.
Στην απάνω γειτονίτσα αγαπώ και ΄γω μιά νιά.
Το όνομα της δεν γνωρίζω, Τούρκα να ΄ναι γιά Ρωμιά
What harm did the poor and say all killer.
Does anyone killed, lest some kissed.
In the upper small neighborhood I love a young
to name her do not know, is she a Turk or is she a Roman.http://youtu.be/Z0ugxfNKLpA
Everything goes fine this evening...(with my posts!).
Nice thread!
Very nice ΠΑΝΑQuote:

K.D. Lang also did a great cover of this song. I really love,love,love her voice and the way she interprets a song. I may even like her version of Black Coffee better than Peggy Lee's.
She can sing anything, and has, blues/jazz, country, rock, and pop. She does them all superlatively well.

For a change of pace, Canadians rapping about life in rural Ontario. NSFW because of all the swearing.

No, I don't speak any Gaelic - the Ontario educational system managed to wipe it out in past generations. It's still spoken in the Cape Breton area of Nova Scotia, which is where the Rankins are from. Most of the songs they recorded are in English, in order to reach a wider audience. But I like listening to the language of my ancestors, even though I don't understand it. Other artists from Cape Briton who've recorded in both English and Gaelic are Mary Jane Lamont and Wendy MacIssacs.Quote:

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.Quote:

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:

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:
