Rumours of War....

The late Gregory Isaacs sings much of this song in Jamaican Patois yet the point is still clear:

Rumours and rumours and rumours and rumours
Whole lotta propaganda
Rumours a gwan
Can't stop it...

Rumours dem spreadin'

Something classical...

Played at the conclusion of the wedding of Edward Duke of Wessex [4th of 4 child of QE2 and Phillip Mauntbatten] at St. George's Chapel, Windsor Castle [where Prince Harry also married]... the song is called "Widor's Toccata"... and it was played as the "processional" as the bride and groom were exiting the royal chapel.

Here it is played on the mighty 4/36 Wurlitzer at the Detroit Fox by house organist David Callendine... playing the "slave console" up in the balcony of the Fox [first 2 minutes of this video]...

Been clicking on a lot of music on YouTube lately. Some great stuff from classics to jazz there, as Gistock notes in the above post.

I play it as background music when there's no need for any other audio. Plus, the parrots like to dance to it:

I have no idea what connection this guy has to Detroit, but it's become my 'relax & be happy' video. It's always been my favorite Elvis tune. Remember when you had that kind of energy? lol...me neither!

Brothers in Arms - Dire Straits

https://youtu.be/aLtmq0g_4Og

These mist covered mountains
Are a home now for me
But my home is the lowlands
And always will be
Someday you'll return to
Your valleys and your farms
And you'll no longer burn to be
Brothers in arms
Through these fields of destruction
Baptisms of fire
I've witnessed your suffering
As the battle raged high
And though they did hurt me so bad
In the fear and alarm
You did not desert me
My brothers in arms
There's so many different worlds
So many different suns
And we have just one world
But we live in different ones
Now the sun's gone to hell and
The moon's riding high
Let me bid you farewell
Every man has to die
But it's written in the starlight
And every line in your palm
We're fools to make war
On our brothers in arms

by Mark Knopfler

Came across this Rasputin song. I wondered if the singer Aurora was somehow comparing Putin with Rasputin. But I gave up on that idea when I noticed that this was sung before Putin's began his war. Putin has compared himself to Peter the Great rather than Rasputin. I did look up the meaning of Vladimir and Putin. Vladimir means " "of great power" [[folk etymology: "ruler of the world", "ruler of peace") / "famous power", "bright and famous. Putin means "someone belonging to the way/road, someone who goes along the way."

I might as well post this. It's sort of a catchy tune well done by Aurora.

Lyrics: There lived a man in Russia long ago He was big and strong, in his eyes a seeming glow Most people looked with terror and with fear But to Moscow chicks, he was such a lovely dear He could preach the Bible like a preacher Full of ecstasy and fire But he also was the kind of teacher Women would desire

Ra ra Rasputin Lover of the Russian queen There was a cat that really was gone Ra ra Rasputin Russia's greatest love machine It was a shame how he carried on.

"This man's just got to go", declared his enemies But the ladies begged, "Don't you try to do it, please" No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms Though he was a brute, they just fell into his arms For the queen, he was no wheeler-dealer Though she'd heard the things he'd done She believed he was a holy healer Who would heal her son.

Amplified history video from arctic Norway's early iron age by the German, Danish and Norwegian trio Heilung that receives a disproportionate number of positive comments from Native Americans and people healing from depression and PTSD. The costuming, singer's voice range and power, the imagery, cinematography, and connecting musical and scenic segments all are very good. There is even the best 53 second proto-Norse rap segment you've ever heard. The rapper has a necktie and also joins in the background of the final segment with the muskox. This isn't Hollywood. The baby Anoana is born. She is seen as a girl and later as a woman whose spirit merges with the muskox [[my interpretation). This is well before Vikings and their male religion. This is an ode to the power of women creating life, healing, and being one with nature. It is best listened to full screen and rather loudly with headphones. Loop it. Glance at the comments. The reed tube above the birthing woman has been described as either representing the birth channel or the entrance to the tube of light some dying people witness. When Heilung performed to 9,500 attendees at Red Rock last year, costumed Native Americans performed on stage with Heilung each in their native costumes.

Pulling this to front stage from the playlist because it deserves some limelight.

Okay, sexism aside and four years hence, the skill alone deserves to be revered. There is some real talent here.

This is a live video in which insanity meets genius. It’s not pretty but needs a prize. Maybe a good introduction is to find a reviewer to walk you through this https://www.youtube.com/results?sear...i+Ren+reaction 6.8M hits since December. I just stumbled into it.

This Welsh singer/performer ran into serious physical and mental problems after several years of undiagnosed Lyme disease. He had stem cell therapy and is now being treated in Canada.
