I also must add Cass Elliot, Dusty Springfield, Patsy Cline to this topic, because of their gifted, distinctive yet versatile vocals that allowed for them to sing in different genres but effectively …

I took flowers to my Mom’s grave today for Mother’s Day and had a Reflective visit, she’s been gone since 1995 ( It’s still Sunday where I am in Canada, so it’s still technically Mother’s Day ) ????☮

Well now going on 15 yrs of being #MLTBuzzLuvGroovified and it’s just impossible for me to pinpoint out just 5, 10, etc., fave MLT songs … I’ll make it simple …. All are equally my faves of/for their own merits and have struck a chord with me for whatever the reasons …lol… but I will say, like Jung, Wide Wide Land huts home personally because lije Jung, my Late Dad suffered from a form of Dimentia- caused by a massive stroke he had a few months after Mom had died, and he suffered subsequent seizures, more stroke like episodes thereafter , and etc, so that song is an example of why it’s a fave…. but as I said, All Are on Eqyal Table with me for their own merits and I simply can’t narrow it down …. this applies to both their Originals/Covers and I’ll leave it at that …????????

Well, it all depends truly on my mood, situation, etc, I do both or not at all…. but generally speaking, I would rather a Happy tune to quickly counteract with sadness as I’m prone to anxiety/panic attacks and the quicker I can fend off the Negativity that can trigger , the better for me yet for whatevercreasons, a sad song could in fact be of more help too, again, it’s all an individual preface, no right or wrong answers just a personal preference case to what works best to ease one through sadness, etc or if not at all, that is fine too….☮

Huh… Counterpoint ?! ..lol…Again…I’m lost and confused-kinda late-to-the party in not knowing the tech point aspects in whatever genre of music when it’s mentioned here… I just know to sense the poetical vibes of songs.. if I like/dislike from get-go but am enjoying reading your replies….I just don’t fully understand/grasp the concepts … forgive my duh-ness in not being able to contribute more in this topic.. wish I was more Music Tech Smart then I am so I could understand/grasp/contribute more commentary to the topic, but alas, I’m just somewhat MusicTech illiterate limited ????

Thankyou Christopher Oliver…Glad you enjoyed my MLT poem ????

[Jacki Hopper]

Yes, this album indeed explores more in depths the interwoven and individualistic gifted vocal qualities that eminate and are embraced to full potential , allowing to shine abundantly through and give our musical ears/hearts a taste of music flavorings that season and enhance our listening palette of musical tastebuds….

In A Truly #MLTBuzzLuvGroovified way unlike no one else could do … ????????

[Jacki Hopper]

Okay Jung…lol…ya kinda lost me in this topic, about ” counterpoint” as I’m not all that Music Tech Smart, more precisely …. lol… not sure what you’re meaning by this ” counterpoint” reference/terminology, I have a basic idea of concept but you lost me….lol….

[Jacki Hopper]

I love all the songs on this CD, and…lol…now …if I happen to hear ” Back To Life ” on radio….it’s MLT’s version in my head I hear and sing along to instead of radio version, and though I’m not a Rap Music fan, MLT’s takes on this CD is the only RAP exceptions, I’ll forever will embrace,

I do like ” Alone ” , too, but I know MLT was never reallykeen on it, not sure why, so who knows if they’re going to do a remake of it, perhaps they will reconsider and do an updated version, now being older, more musically confident, sophisticated… we shall see …

Yes, the whole CD is impressive from Get Go ????????

[Jacki Hopper]

Well, from a female perspective…. I’m just going to make short and simple, Equally in/of their own rights… lol… since I’m not male….lol…. and as for Gilligan Island Gals references, same thing, each equally for whom they were of their own devices/characteristics, ….. I go for uniqueness of a person more than anything else, or in layman’s terms…. gut instincts/intuition… I either like/dislike someone right off tge bat and can sense that almost if not immediately of someone, and I’m usually 95%-100% accurate …. ????????

Happy Belated Easter All, my plans with family got postponed at last minute as it’s possible that one of my 2 nephews either has Covid or Flu and as precaution, get together postponed until later date, so my Easter was quiet, kind of down for not being with family.
