I just remembered this “Irish” music. The Chieftains give this Who classic a real Irish vibe.

Wouldn’t this be nice for a Duo Session?

We like the skydiving vlog and the marathon vlogs – and all the others in between. They all have such a friendly welcoming vibe and their production quality is second to none. They look fantastic on a big screen whether on location in the Wagner kitchen, down a dark dusty highway, or leaping out of an airplane.
Watching these young ladies achieve so many personal goals is very inspiring. Eighteen year olds celebrate their birthday by jumping out of an airplane. I wonder if Rudi and Michaela broke the world record for holding their breath.
The recent marathon video looks like a documentary from the Learning Channel, but with better soundtrack. It really feels like we are there as the ladies narrate their adventures.
Lisa and Mona are naturals in front of as well as behind the camera. It’s always impressive how they produce a BTS video at the same time they are filming a music video.
Friday?

Huh? I thought that was a fifties song.
After some further research it appears David is correct with the number one for 1983. We heard the Flashdance song a lot that summer. Keep in mind, FM radio was now competing with this new thing called Music Television. So every song that got played to death on MTV was played to death on FM radio.
The Police were everywhere then. They released a song that read like a stalker’s manuscript and we ate it up.

Thanks for the recommendation, Jung. This definitely passes the ski test. I can’t wait. I also checked out this ‘cover’ of the 2nd movement

It’s so kool how the conductor’s face hints at each note’s arrival. Some of the musicians show that same emotion on their faces. I can see he is more of a director like Rudi in the I Wanna Kiss You BTS.
You can certainly tell it’s a strenuous workout for each and everyone of them. I find myself marveling at the rests. They all pause at once and then begin at the same beat and tempo. Lisa and Mona can do this perfectly as we’ve seen in some Duo Sessions.
In World Cup Ski racing, the difference between first and second place can be measured in hundredths of seconds. Hey, how did the race go? I lost by fifteen hundredths of a second. Imagine if the skiers were told they had to hit certain gates at the same time, and then fall back and catch back up. On top of that, they have to finish at the exact same time.
Orchestras are so amazing.

Thanks David,
I wonder why that .10 viewer can’t bring the other nine tenths to the game.
Thanks for keeping score,

Thanks for the translation of Ode to Joy. This piece is very moving with or without singing. I think I will add it to my skiing playlist.
Have you ever seen this one?

When you said,”music can fill the darkness with light” I immediately thought of Songbird. I guess MLT has become part of my psyche.

Hi Michael,
They are not in the Out of Stock section either. Collectors items? I think I have four. I am going to gather them and make sure they are in a safe place.

Thanks, David. I am looking forward to the Questionable stats for this new Questionable song. Let the wordplay begin. I wonder if the new album has a title yet. It’s so kool to witness the production. I can’t remember ever receiving weekly updates on an album’s development. We used to get news blips like, “the band is spending the next year in St Tropez working on their latest album.” Here we get,”we’re going to spend the weekend filming our new video. And we’ll try to have the editing done by next weekend.” Nice! They are amazing.

I could probably name every PF song in 2-3 notes, as could most. I thought I could contribute to this thread with one of theirs, but then I started thinking they have a ton of obvious intros, so I am trying to come up with a less known one.
Fearless is one that has a nice moving acoustic intro. The opening chord has a drum beat at the bottom of it that truly sets the pace of the song. I hear that first chord and I’m ready. This is a great song when you need a little boost of confidence. (The outro is kinda kool, too) I listen to this a lot while ⛷. It really gets the heart racing, like Walking On The Air ????

Member01/03/2022 at 02:38 in reply to: Some of the most beautiful songs come from a broken heartWhen Gwen sings,”Don’t tell me cause it hurts.”, doe she mean, “don’t use ‘it hurts’ as an excuse” or does she mean, “it hurts me when you say that”?
I realize it could just be a grammar issue, but songs don’t really follow the strictest grammar rules. It’s weird though, this always comes to mind when I hear this song. Is it obvious if I listen a little closer?
On second thought solving the mystery may not be the answer I want to hear.

Those first drum beats give it away for me. I remember this song was played to death by the radio stations. Those were the days. My my my my

You may notice in the Scarecrow video we hear Syd singing, but he is not in the video. This video was made soon after Syd was excused and replaced by David Gilmour. It’s funny how they all lip sync together over Syd’s vocal.
