Certainly a trip, so to speak, down memory lane! And now for something completely different (you've already heard this Menolly....

)

George, and their magnificent lead singer, Katie Noonan. You must listen to her sublime, effortless, exquisite, masterful voice... oh, just listen!

Breathe in Now

Yes, yes, yes...
You have no idea the sense of relief I felt when I opened this and saw it was not yet another attempt by you to sell Tool to me...

The best song on Hysteria, and the only one to not be a single anywhere in the world.

Fantastic song! Heard it very early today and I can't get it out of my head, oh no...(that's ELO, but this is) Alice in Chains No Excuses.

"How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
How many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
How many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?

The answer, my friend, is blowin in the wind
The answer is blowin in the wind.
The answer is blowin in the wind"

Thanks for the music, Mary...

I was looking for Island in the Sun on You Tube, which is getting pissy with Firefox, and found this fun song on Quicktime (I know wrong thread

We could put together a better song than this with Fantasy Bedtime Hour and Jenn in San Fran!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree completly , loved this song especially with Ronald Regans voice over at the end of the track. It was a rocker

oh...my...g-ds...

My apologies if this has been shared before.

I just came across this version of King Crimson's Epitaph, and it is simply awesome!

I so wish more information on who made it or where it was from was posted...

Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata is a moving and brilliant piano piece. One of my music teachers played it for me 15 years ago, and I was instantly in love (with the music and her)! I swore I'd learn it - unfortunately I suck at piano, fortunately there are many that don't, so I can still listen.

That's neat. The colored lights remind me of the Moog synth sequence in Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

Dang it, Stevie, now you've got me clicking on the Beethoven vids.

The thing about the Moonlight Sonata is how its initial dreamy movement - and the title - lulls the first time listener into thinking the whole work is like that. Even the second movement seems in line with the first. But then the closing movement rudely wakes up the house.

Post by **StevieG** » Tue Nov 24, 2009 11:52 am

It certainly does! Actually, I was going to post the 3rd movement too, but forgot. Hmm, maybe tomorrow (unless you get to it first

)

Here it is - brace yourselves!

Never fails to get my adrenaline going. It's the sort of finale that makes me stand up and cheer, no matter who's playing - although Wilhelm Kempff was pretty darn fantastic. It's good to revel in the Moonlight Sonata again.

Btw, I don't suck at the piano - because I can't even play it. (I don't think pounding the keys at random counts.)

Beethoven didn't name it Moonlight, btw. Gorgeous piece, in any event. Deserves it's popularity.

I didn't know that...

Actually, it was after dlb posted a piano piece from Rachmaninoff (sp?) in the non-specific thread in General Discussion that I revisited Beethoven. I like to think I'm musically "able" to a degree, but I have the upmost respect for the piano, since I have no talent in that area. I have a theory that it is because I'm left-handed, and the left hand seems to want to play the melody as opposed to the bass...

I might track down some more - Chopin springs to mind, there are some beauties there!

Post by **Fist and Faith** » Wed Nov 25, 2009 1:31 pm

Heh. No, Chopin wasn't half-bad.

Yeah, that lefty things is probably very annoying for the piano. Ever see tha M*A*S*H episode with the pianist whose right hand was permanently damaged?

Post by **StevieG** » Wed Nov 25, 2009 1:49 pm

Yes I did in fact! Awesome! But M*A*S*H was awesome overall in my opinion. Reminds me of Catch-22, a contrast of light and dark in the face of hell.
