Just watched Field of Dreams again. Seemed appropriate for the time of year. The eternal hope of the game, the nostalgia of it.
Well worth watching IMO.
oops I put this under the wrong category.
Do y’all mean that you plan to play these songs as you die?
Well, at least somebody plays it for me. Haha
Here’s mine.
(I have a “wake” fund, and an ever growing list of invitees, at which a long list of tunes will be played starting with this):
I’ll also have played the version of the tune recorded by the original songwriter, who was a single 15 year old Jewish girl living in NY when she wrote it.
I still marvel at the these lyrics being written by such a young person…
She was something else
My beloved cousin is a member of Adam Ant’s band and we are gifted with tix to see tonight’s performance.
Don’t drink, don’t smoke, what do ya do…?

I think this may be the song for when my time is up.
This would be mine, except that I’m not sure it would be received well by all.
When that time comes, I’m pretty sure I couldn’t care less what others might think. haha

Such a great album from a what? 20 something year old kid? I love Angel from Montgomery.
His version > Bonnie Raitt’s interpretation.
I love his original of Angel from Montgomery but I think that song was meant for Bonnie’s vocals.
That’s fair. Many would agree. I think she also changes the key signature. What say you @salUTE?
Aquilus is a one-man symphonic black metal artist out of Australia. He creates these absolutely stunning symphonic works, blending sweeping classical orchestration and raw, harsh metal. His first album (Griseus) is in my personal top 10 of all time.
His third release, Bellum II, came out this week and is just as grandiose and beautiful as the first two. It’s an amazing musical journey to be listening to epic string sections that could be straight out of the LOTR soundtrack one moment, then seamlessly transition into brutal blastbeats and harsh vocals the next. When done well (which it absolutely is done here) it’s one of my favorite blends of musical styles
The full album is on YouTube. It mostly flows as a singular piece, but is broken up into “tracks” at certain points. My favorite starts at 11:30 with “Nigh To Her Gloam”. The beginning guitar and strings are just so damn beautiful.
