Alice in Chains - unplugged
A few from XTC, a very good (and articulate) British group, probably best known for some of their work in the very late 70s, to the mid 80s......"Generals and Majors", "Senses Working Overtime", the classic "Making Plans for Nigel", and the thoughtful, intelligent, if somewhat dreamy and rather subversive, "Dear God".
Cheers!
Nice remix
And again, from the 80s, another classic (one which I loved when it came out): Squeeze, and the song 'Last Time Forever'....
I love Squeeze. Pulling Mussels From A shell is one of my favorite tunes
Today, at Christmas Mass, I heard an exquisite version of the 'Sanctus' by Karl Jenkins. Beautiful.
The wonderful, witty, (tolerant) and urbane Henri of Navarre (Henri IV of France) - undoubtedly one of the most attractive monarchs France ever had, is supposed to have said "Paris is worth a Mass" as he abjured his Huguenot faith and converted to Catholicism in order to be able to take the throne after a vicious civil war. Well, I think Christmas is worth a Mass, too.
Apart from the sublime Sanctus, the excellent choir sang traditional songs ('Silent Night' and 'O Holy Night' among them) and also sang from the symphonic Mass composed by the late great Irish composer, Seán Ó'Ríada. Just beautiful, and perfectly matching the ideals of the day that today commemorates.
Yes. It was brilliant and seriously spine tingling - not what you would normally expect to hear during a church service. But wonderful. Thanks for posting that link, by the way.
When the Mass ended, the choir finished up with a rousing rendition of the 'Hallejuiah' chorus from Handel's Messiah; granted, musically, something of a bit of a cliché at Christmas, but, nevertheless, a very welcome one at that, especially as that particular piece was first performed in Dublin in 1742 and so has a connection with the country.
