Hi Diana, a very beautiful and somehow sad song. I’ve heard this song so many times in my life, but never knew what band it was from until I looked it up now. I always find it amazing how many songs you know without sometimes knowing who the performer is.

Thank you for all the information and the exciting topic Will. I am not a musician and therefore can not put some things I hear in terms and words. Posts like this one help me to better classify music and understand the background. I would also find it interesting in the future, if similar topics are treated here in the forum. You have a comprehensive knowledge to many musical focuses and I am glad about it, if you let me share it.

One more question comes to my mind: Did later bands like “The Commodores”, “Kool & The Gang” and “Earth, Wind and Fire” take up the tradition of “doo wop” and revive it in a new guise or does that have nothing to do with it at all?
-
Thank you both. Some of the music pieces I know, but could never assign them to a specific music style. Very Interesting.

Hi Will, hi David,
now you have made me curious: I don’t know the term „doo wop“. What exactly is meant by this genre of music? Thanks.

Hi Jung, I’m glad if you like the piece of music. „Chess“ is a musical written by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus of the pop group ABBA. The story involves a politically driven, Cold War-era chess tournament between two grandmasters, one American and the other Soviet, and their fight over a woman who manages one and falls in love with the other.
Chess was never my great passion, as I never had a real chess partner. I once played it for a short time with a friend. We were both teenagers and we didn’t have the right calmness and composure to enjoy the game at that time. One quick move followed the other and the games were always over pretty quickly. We played a kind of „speed chess“. 🙂
I have already heard about “Queens Gambit”. It sounds interesting.
I can well imagine that playing chess went well with the relaxed ambiance of your Alaskan cruise and I also miss traveling a lot.
An ” A Capella” introduction is also a delightful way to start a song.

Jung, Soft Cell and the 80s. I can think of a lot of interesting intros. This one for example:
-
A music box as an intro. I don’t know which musician originally had this idea, but I like it very much.

Hi David, this song is unfortunately blocked in Germany. Which would it have been?

Thanks for asking Tom, could be a little more sleep at the moment.
