What are you listening to at the moment?

Right now I'm listening to

T.I. ft. Rihanna - Live your life

I feel it's healing to hear the voices of the many singing in unison, even if by viewing remotely, and the feeling that is shared extends to being a part of it (especially during times of isolation).

@Cannuck . Yes indeed : A group from the Netherlands made a cover of Bohemian Rhapsody in isolation (and a bunch of other songs also in isolation : you can find a playlist at their youtubepage). Several people / vocal coaches / teachers in singing, who reviewed this video on yt, are astonished by this version.

They performed in 2019 a cover of several songs for Christmas a "Andrew Sisters medley".(not in isolation).

The Eurovision Songcontest of 2020 couldn't go through because of Covid19. (And maybe also in 2021 (?)
Anyhow : On television they did make a good alternative for the whole of Europe (since some years also Australia joins in). In the program at a certain moment the contestants (sadly apart from 1) sung all from home a part of the song (Love) Shine a light (a song that won Eurovision more then 2 decades ago and that title was the "theme of the contest" of 2020: (Love) Shine a light, by Katrina and the waves). The songs of the +/- 43 countries for 2020 can be found seperately on Youtube or eurovision.tv : look for Eurovision 2020...and you'll find them. In 2021 the same contestants will (or won't ?) sing in the contest with a new song....but I guess it will be after the summer...if they want to work coronaproof. Or even 2022 ?

Katrina and the Waves, winning song of the Eurovisionsongcontest 1997 for the UK/Gr. Br.

@koolishman and everybody interested.
Here the same song (You raise me up) by Westlife with an enormous crowd (Farewell Tour) (Live at Croke Park, 2012)

And there are special versions of Amazing Grace I particularly like.
It are these ones :
LeAnn Rimes

Wintley Phipps - Amazing grace (Lyric Video - Live at carnegie Hall, New York, NY/2002)

= short version

= long version with funny story about the black notes ! (And there's also
a gathering where he sings it for preident Obamaback then ; and president Obama also song this song in public : see YT.)

(and last but not least a version from Chris Tomlin,with parts of a movie about the song and where it came from)

The actor you see also plays in Titanic (version with Lorenzo di Caprio), as the guy with the flashlight looking with a little boat through the passengers lying there still to find if there are still people among them alive. He's also known as the doctor in the TV-series, investigating murderred people, where he lives forever. Everytime he's killed or dies, he rises up again, but that is in the river naked.

AND to close from Cliff Richard : The Millennium prayer (the Our Father):

(there exists a version where he sings it at Wembley stadion on 01/02/2000 (I saw
it then on the BBC it was 2ndof january), where all the people sing along, holding hands,
but there is no nice full and with good videoversion of that time any more on YT.

Awesome songs by CelticWoman.

@koolishman.
I have a CD from them. And also the first CD of Chloë Agnew, (CD is called "Chloe" as I remember or "walking in the air", or is that her 2nd CD (?).) when she was very young and before the group Celtic Woman was formed.. Her voice was extremely nice then.
She must have done something to her body (because her appearance now has changed very much).
Then : Chloe Agnew - Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring. (published in 2009 on YT., Oh,time flies
very quick !)

Now "When you believe" :

 

[koolishman]

Amazing talent show kids.

 

[Domainstore]

I should stop listening and publishing for now, cause I have lots to do.
Yes : These kids sing adorable ! @koolishman

I'm also a big fan of "Kitaro" Japanese composer/player of electronic music
sometimes his music is pop, sometimes new age (=as sort of music, not as philipsophy, although, I think he's buddhist). He comes from Japan and lives in the States now. He won a Grammy (or more then one).
Here 'Peace on earth' (Christmas) CD :

'Silent Night and o Holy Night'

Particularly the CD "OASIS" from Kitaro (with also a track that's also called Oasis on it among other tracks) is a CD that I like very much. I first bought it even on cassette.
It's a very very calming CD (certainly when there are no spaces between the tracks) !!!!
An advice for everybody who is nervous ! I see on the video "1996". But I know that earlier in 1989 or so I bought the cassette that was 30 minutes then..

Till soon !

TBT... Music video was shot at Mokrice Castle, few miles from where I live. Hot bride nowadays acts at the children’s theater where I take my kids to Sunday matinees. Sir Ian McKellen is alive and well...

 

[crodomainhub]

TBT... As a kid, on my first walkman, I listened to “Making Movies” about ten million times. After all these years the guitar solo in “Tunnel of Love” remains my favorite...

Tangerine Dream is one of the best and most original electronic music bands. Le Parc was the first album of theirs and of many later I got.

 

[forge]

Yes, I bought Force Majeure on vinyl and was blown away and also hooked, so many years ago. Also Tangram.
