    Inspiration Motivation in Music

    Hip, John Mellencamp got a bad rap when he was young and went as John Cougar Mellencamp. That is when he did Jack and Diane and Hurts so Good. Since then he has matured and has truly developed a moral conscience and his music has matured too. Here is a very topical song he performed with India Arie. He has addressed many social issues recently and it is hard to believe but his political leanings are more towards the left than one would think.

    I'm having a hard time keeping up with all the musical recommendations so I am going to try and make a spreadsheet with all the artists and songs on the thread so people can go back and find them at their own leisure. If I actually do it I will pm it to everyone.

          I have a few for Beatle, Split Enz are a NZ band two brothers Neil & Tim Finn.. we had their first album in about 1980?.. I never used to listen to them as a kid as I was 'too cool' but my taste has mellowed over time.. they are pretty awesome especially if you get to hear them accoustic.

          Here is a couple of daggy filmclips from the early days.. followed by some more recent live clips. All great songs:

          [ame= ]YouTube - Split Enz - Six Months In A Leaky Boat (1982)[/ame]
          [ame= ]YouTube - Split Enz - Message To My Girl[/ame]
          [ame= ]YouTube - crowded house weather with you live[/ame]
          [ame= ]YouTube - crowded house dont dream its over live[/ame]

          Loved those dancing in the rain clips Teardrop.. i also loved that movie and so do my kids.

          My puter is saying my 'virtual memory' is stuffed... so more later

                Not to worry TD, is ok.. I am in wobbly mode with full moon & winter solstice happening here.

                Very much enjoyed that clip TD - was that James Brown? Um.. The Get up one. James Brown is a household name, but I do not know him at all. I associate him with some kinda painful trumpet playing.. Which is probably someone else. (guess I’m having a ‘seniors moment’ forgive my ignorance!)

                Haha.. As for Angelina.. Maybe you & Hippie need to read ‘the beauty myth’ by Naomi Wolf (Hahahaha I nearly wrote Naomi Campbell)

                Teardrop I love that song Imagine.. Funnily enough, at my last year of school my entire year had to sing it as a choir.. But being a Christian school, they replaced ‘imagine no religion’ with something else. Oh boy that taught us all a lot about hypocrisy (have I spelled that wrong?)

                Oh well, hugs all round.. Appreciate this thread no end.. still have lots of catching up to do

                      I won't be on the computer this weekend so I will leave you with one soppy love song and beautiful song from a Canadian but I will be thinking of you. Everyone have a lovely weekend. I know I intend to.

                            I shot an arrow into the air,
                            It fell to earth, I knew not where;
                            For, so swiftly it flew, the sight
                            Could not follow it in its flight.

                            I breathed a song into the air,
                            It fell to earth, I knew not where;
                            For who has sight so keen and strong,
                            That it can follow the flight of song?

                            Long, long afterward, in an oak
                            I found the arrow, still unbroke;
                            And the song, from beginning to end,
                            I found again in the heart of a friend.

                            Love and Happiness

                              That Gallagher and Lyle tune must be on every Love CD I've come across when perusing round charity shops!!lol

                              Lemonjelly used the sample for one of their tunes called.....wait for it......Stay With You!!!
                              there's actually dolphins in this video too dolphin about 1.40lol
                              [ame= ]YouTube - Stay With You[/ame]

                              You'll probably of heard this tune by Lemonjelly as this was the one that topped the charts a while back
                              Watch out for the animals dancing at 2.40 (happy happy tune!!)
                              [ame= ]YouTube - Lemon Jelly - Nice weather for Ducks[/ame]

                              And finally last one by Lemonjelly is a track called The Shouty Track. Even if you don't like the tune the animated video is hilarious. 2.56 my fav.bit

                                This is one of the 5 tunes I want played at my funeral (remember that thread!!)

                                This is a tune that will say something about my melancholic romantic side after I am gone.
