Thanks for the feedback Jung. Most of the songs from Cœur de pirate sound like French chanson at first and are influenced by this piano playing. The song by Enya is great and the video is artistically made very appealing. It’s just always enchanting when music and images merge. An art form that I no longer want to miss.
I thank you very much for the many great contributions to this topic and also to all others who have supported this topic excellently! I would like to say goodbye at this point with a song by Gabriele Susanne Kerner (artist name Nena) with which I personally associate very beautiful memories:
Im Sturz durch Raum und Zeit
Richtung Unendlichkeit
Fliegen Motten in das Licht
Genau wie du und ichIrgendwie fängt irgendwann
Irgendwo die Zukunft an
Ich warte nicht mehr lang
Liebe wird aus Mut gemacht
Denk nicht lange nach
Wir fahr’n auf Feuerrädern
Richtung Zukunft durch die NachtFalling through space and time
Towards infinity
Moths fly into the light
Just like you and me
Somehow, sometime
Somewhere the future begins
I won’t wait long
Love is made of courage
Don’t think twice
We’ll ride on firewheels
Towards the future through the night -

A charming/melancholic song that has been with me all my life.

Las Ketchup
The group consisted of the four sisters Lola, Lucía, Pilar and Rocío Muñoz from Córdoba in Andalusia. They produced also a „pure“ Spanish version of the song, but it sounds exactly the same. It was once a party hit and a catchy tune with us. With every Sangria the song got better (and then this crazy dance to it) 🙂
PS: for their album “Hijas del Tomate” (“The daughters of the tomato”) they received the Golden Record award in France and Sweden in 2002.

A very impressive performance, Jung. I just listened to the original in the orchestral version to get a better feel for the composition. I suppose that at that time Beethoven’s health was not very good anymore. You are right, it sounds very melancholic.
I would be interested to know what proportion of the original orchestra performance must be retained in order to transfer this from the orchestral version to the guitar, for example. So how far you can reduce the piece of music so that it is still recognized as the original.

Very nice cover song, thanks Jung.
PS: I just imagine how it is to be constantly on tour with your sisters. Would that be something for you Jung, „The Roes”? I would probably argue with my sister most of the time 🙂
