I really like the musical part in the first part of Purcell´s song.

No idea how that song related to Arthur (after all grew up with the Hollywood version) so i googled it and it´s an interesting story. 

That Chiptune song is pretty nice and ofc everything Godspeed You Mount does is great. :)

ETA: A buddy of mine had a multiple CD player so you could actually listen to the whole album without changing the CD (so technically only down to beer runs)...small luxuries.

The Mikado is one of my favourite operette's (which also has talking, not only singing).

A special and short piece with funny and political lyrics on screen.

Gilbert & Sullivan - The Mikado - special "I've Got A Little List"
(3m24)

I have this album on vinyl, and the vinyl itself is actually a phenakistoscope!

If I call you out but go no further, the reason is Brandolini's law.

Dunno where I got this gem from. Was it here?

While it is deep out of Africa, I get visions of German Baroque trumpeting here.  :o

One key lower note is missing on my instrument, but that is occasion to shut up the secundo trumpet for a moment. How I wish a primo trumpetist to try it. But I can imagine enough...

Very unlike most material posted here, not an oldie per se (1982) and quite avant-garde. However, I think at least nanning will identify with the message, mocking the advances of technology and modern society.
I really love this weird song and the whole album of the same name.

Nice cover of  a great if sad song by a great composer. I still like the original better, tho.

Immortal verses:

"I was raised on the Good Book Jesus
till I read between the lines..."

"A force de chercher de bonnes raisons, on en trouve; on les dit; et après on y tient, non pas tant parce qu'elles sont bonnes que pour ne pas se démentir." Choderlos de Laclos "You struggle to come up with some valid reasons, then cling to them, not because they're good, but just to not back down."

This is one album i miss very much.

Playing the album through a rather high end stereo sounds way better then youtube but i have these really shitty speakers so YMMV.

Winter - Into Darkness

Because it´s about the proper time of the year.



You can´t really take one song from the album because it all blends together so beautifully.

Some very nice songs posted above with nice texts, thanks.

This is another fine tune to whistle.
And wili, the Netherlandic lyrics are on screen. English translation below the video.
This video is not original and pre-covid-19, and the makers haven't understood the lyrics about men.

Jasperina De Jong - De Wandelclub (Jo Met De Banjo) (nl) (1967)
(3m31)


We love the woods
We can play there
We can make bobbins there
We love the heather
On the meadow and on nature
Give us the fresh meadow because you can
So enjoy without, ha, delicious Hunter
We don't want nicotine, we want the mandolin
From your pingelepingelepingelepong
Picnics are so nice
Don't take anything for the line
That should be superfluous for us

Chorus
Jo with the banjo, and Lien with the mandolin
Kate with her harmonica
Trutie with a lutie, you have to see that clubie
Love a man, love a man
We love a mandolin so much

We are sunny sisters
We are not kissable
We are not kissable
That is unsanitary
Unhygienic in nature

We are C.B.H. of the snail shells
We love lizard and water lice
No Donalds and no Wimpies
We step into our sneakers
From your pingelepingelepingelepong
With us everything is pure
We still have figure
We are a piece of untouched nature

[Chorus]

We love the blackbirds
We don't moth guys
We don't moth guys
We protect the animals
The ants, the little piercings
In nature
We sometimes go camping for fourteen days
Without hi, without ha, without gentlemen
We don't want a limousine
We want the mandolin
From your pingelepingelepingelepong
It sounds on all sides
When the sun burns
We are the laps of the Netherlands

[Chorus]

Three versions of this song, written by Stan Jones in 1948.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/(Ghost)_Riders_in_the_Sky:_A_Cowboy_Legend

"Members of the Western Writers of America chose it as the greatest Western song of all time"

I like songs that are creative.
Here they've put in a cowboy farm, cows and all.
edit: You can hear the cattle suffering and panicking. That's normal I guess

Ramrods - Ghost Riders In The Sky (i) (1961)

(2m37)


Burl Ives - Ghost Riders In The Sky (1949)

(3m10)

Golden oldies.

Nuclear Assault - Critical Mass

The bio-sphere, the place we live
It seems like we don't give a damn
Other species flushed down the tubes
We need another race to rape
The way we live we will destroy
Every other living thing
'Til none are left except our race
And then we will destroy ourselves
Another oil spill
Atomic waste displaced
Another forest dies
Bring on the acid rain
Slightly insane, the type of greed
That makes a world unfit for life
Toxic wastes destroy the seas
While poison gas pollutes the air
A waste of life, while no one cares
The earth becomes a giant tomb
Critical mass will be achieved
And ruins will be all that's left



Other suggestions: Exodus Chemi-kill and Corruption
