There's colors on the street
Red, white and blue
People shufflin' their feet
People sleepin' in their shoes
But there's a warnin' sign
on the road ahead
There's a lot of people sayin'
we'd be better off dead
Don't feel like Satan,
but I am to them
So I try to forget it,
any way I can.
I see a...
This is conducted by Toscanini, considered the top conductor of the time. During a 1935 tour in Salzburg, the conductor Arturo Toscanini told her she had a voice "heard once in a hundred years."
The sound quality on this next one is better, in my opinion. It shows off her talent better...
From the song: "Oh death, someone would pray
Couldn’t you call some other day
God's children prayed, the preacher's preached
The time of mercy is out of your reach
I'll fix your feet so you can't walk
I'll lock your jaws so you can't talk, Close your eyes so you can 't see
This very hour come go...
Hello!
I've been slowly getting into Christian music ever since my friend shared me "Wherever I Go" by Dan Bremnes. Would love to see what everyone can recommend and thank you for your recommendations.
Discovered this song a while back with a Tweet which said it was good for listening to while reading Exodus, I agree. In fact it is good for Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, Kings and Chronicles, Jeremiah, Lamentations, most of the other Prophets, Ecclesiastes, and many other sections of the...
I've been listening to Eddy Grant's Gimme Hope Jo'anna quite a few times in the past, but only now realized that it's a song decrying the South African Apartheid regime (and the titular "hope" is about its end):
Has this ever happened to you? Have you suddenly realized that a song you've...
Hi, this is possibly not the right area to post this, but I'm not sure where it might fit, and I hope the "perfect fit" for it doesn't come to be the trash!
So something I do which I find very fulfilling and awe-inspiring for myself, is by various means and staying hyper vigilant and alert, I...
I remember when this was a thing, several years back, and had totally forgotten.
Here's 3 of his virtual pieces, each with more contributors than the last.
It is both erie, and beautiful. I love the first one, as it's entirely wordless-- simply the human voice, in all it's splendor, in...
‘During Afghanistan’s bloody thirty-year civil war, the sound of music was one of the first casualties.
Freedom of expression was censored by successive brutal regimes and musicians were often imprisoned and tortured.
For five years in the late 1990s, music was completely banned by the Taliban...
The sheep's in the meadow; the cow's in the corn:
Now is the time for a child to be born.
He'll cry for the moon, he'll laugh at the sun:
If he's a boy he'll carry a gun --

Never ye mind if her hair doesn't curl.
With rings on...
