Stagga Like Us

These links are videos displaying pieces written in various musical eras sung by pretty-darn-good choirs around the world. The songs are chosen, of course, because of their harmonies and overall beauty, but mostly for the awesomely infamous staggering entrances. I thoroughly enjoy these choir nerd things.

University of Philippenes Medicine Choir - Antonio Lotti's "Crucifixus"
Montclair State UniversityChamber Ensemble - Eric Whitacre's "Sleep"
Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir (NYC) - Arvo Part's Da Pacem Domine from "In Principio"

Massive Attack - Paradise Circus

"She will love you like a fly will never love you again"

Darwin's Works

Simma Da Na

Looking at things broadly, there are only a few reasons why I can heal myself today. One of them is because I believe there are huge affects connected with the sound of MUSIC. This classical piece affects me quite positively even though it may have death in the title. After listening to this I'm able to look up to the sun peeking out of the gray sky and say to myself, " I don't know much, but I know I am so happy to see you, Sunshine." You may find yourself looking up to the sun, too.

Edvard Grieg - Aase's Death

Blow this horn

It's frustrating when my focus of this blog is geared towards something that isn't living. I am distracted by the trash rolling on the sidewalk. I am taken by surprise when people see it in clear daylight and do not pick it up and dispose of it. That's it, let it keep rolling around. Too bad ignoring it as I pass will not help me forget its existence. Well, I am guiding the trash today and continiously thereafter to where it should go, and we've got nothing to lose doing so. It has a place in this world. THE TRASH CAN! Good day and remember to recycle your shit.

The week is looking up! To you and yours, here are 'newish' songs worthy of downloading and spreading around during this month of brutal weather... instead of spreading germ-infested boogers all over the computer keyboard in the library (why do people think they are invisible in public facilities??)

Deadman - The Pale Rider
Amon Tobin - Hey Mr. Tree
J Dilla - So Far To Go Feat. Common & D'angelo
