Here's my choice for Wednesday! darn this week is flying by while i just sit here, trying to feel better! called my doctor to ask for an antibiotic, she won't prescribe it until she sees me and listened to my lungs! I've had this Every year as soon as the weather changes, i can't be bothered driving had an hour through traffic, whilst i don't feel well, just call in the medicine!
ah well, it will pass! -
-
And now you want to make me cry!!
Jac v yeah you mentioned that 'Drive' was played on a video at Live Aid, with starving children, I don't get the connection. I get Your connection, but I don't know why they would play that totally irrelevant video, pairing it with starving children? -
Wonderful song, @SweetP, thank you! Yours too @hunnybunny, and most of all Sir Andrew Davis lol ! And @kathy for Roy Orbison
Proms, well not on LW, that’s just Radio 4, but on Radio 3. But I like to SEE the Proms!
For those over the Pond:
Proms end with everyone singing "Jerusalem":
https://youtu.be/sERiPuOQyvo
. . . love the arrows of desire!
It’s not all classical music - here’s Bernard Herrmann conducting his own movie music "Psycho Theme":
https://youtu.be/fQwzJ6VvUD0

Two weeks tomorrow -
@kathy never heard that Fleetwood Mac song before, it was rather heart wrenching
I will try a happy song tomorrow -
Wow I'm surprised you never heard that one @Hunnybunny ?? yes it is rather heartwrenching , never listened to it from that perspective..hmm
Yes happier music tomorrow...:D -
Well, here’s my happier song
The Cure and Love Cats
The video, starring the brilliant Robert Smith, features cats
But listen to the lyrics, it’s about a start of a relationship
And features one of my most favourite lyrics of all time
“We could have each for tea, we could have each other with cream”
https://youtu.be/mcUza_wWCfA
And really happy song coming next... -
And from one of my favourite musicals, South Pacific, here’s Captain Sensible hamming it up. The singalong version, obviously

@tompuss I fight back with the original Hey Ya
The start is boring, but just wow
https://youtu.be/PWgvGjAhvIw -
@sweetp remember so well, calling a work colleague who was driving, I’m working from home
He didn’t believe what I was seeing on the TV
Anniversary tomorrow... -
And if this is not a happy song, I don’t know what is
Bruno Mars in the beautiful pink jacket...
https://youtu.be/OPf0YbXqDm0 -
Ahh, yes. I remember it like it was yesterday. I was getting ready for work while watching the morning news. I saw the report of the impact on the north tower (1 WTC), and when the newsfeed was still showing the smoke, watched as the second plane hit the south tower (2 WTC). I couldn't believe what I was seeing! Went to work and everyone was in shock. We turned on the news in the conference room and we were frozen in place, watching as the report of the Pentagon attack was broadcast, then the crash in PA. It was awful. A couple hours after the towers collapsed, we were ordered to evacuate because our aerospace company was at risk. Tomorrow is the infamous anniversary that is etched in my memory. So, so sad.

Welcome Back @Tompuss!! :D

Listen to this Whole Song until the end, then listen again

On this night...18 years ago, 246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning tomorrow. 343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers went to sleep in preparation for morning patrol. 8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for the morning shift of saving lives. None of them saw past 10:00 am Sept 11, 2001. In one single moment life may never be the same. As you live and enjoy the breaths you take today and tonight before you go to sleep in preparation for your life tomorrow, kiss the ones you love, snuggle a little tighter, and never take one second of your life for granted.
Never forget. -
Beautiful Clydesdale Tribute from Budweiser, thanks for sharing @Sweetp
and your words are so true!
I've decided today that I have the rest of my life (however short or long) to worry, I'm not going to worry today! just for today! my new daily reminder! -
sorry @Hunnybunny talking at the same time! sorry about the 'not available' thing, i hate when that happens! Is called 'Angels on the Moon' by the Thriving Ivories
Ahh Poppies , We will Never Forget! -

Some wonderful videos @kathy, @hunnybunny, @SweetP. . I too found @kathy’s "refused" video, yes you are right @hunnybunny, it’s in the same spirit as "Seasons in the sun". Magnificent Budweiser tribute. .
Uptown Funk - that one was already in my Favourites, love it!
Louis Armstrong and Billie Holliday: "New Orleans":
https://youtu.be/m4jU8IQK5b0
Bruce Springsteen: "O Mary, don’t you weep":
https://youtu.be/QlpvbxmFm5g
-
Ooohhh @Tompuss !!! I've never heard 'Mary don't you weep ' Phenomenal !! I was never a huge Springsteen fan, I like most of what I've heard but many I could do without, But That One!!! should go down in History (forgiving the poor grammar, but hey, He's from NJ, lol) absolutely amazing! I listened to it Twice!!
And I loved the Louie Armstrong, goes without saying, but I said it lol!! -
@Hunnybunny I've always loved that Song! and yes it sort of goes with the Spirit of the Thriving Ivories
I'll be back with my choice soon
