I just found out that the voice in moment of peace is supposedly not Sarah, but her (much younger) sister Amelia, in action here:

Oil and water by incubus ( ) is one of my favorite songs. For whatever reason this song reminds me of the time I spent out in the rockies this summer. I don't know if any of you have heard of the sangre de cristo range, but they have got to be some of the most beautiful places on earth.

Kurdt, Nirvana was an awesome grunge band from Washington state in the US in the early 90s. The band "ended" after frontman Kurt Cobain, committed suicide, a tragic ending for such a great musician.

P.S. I didn't have much luck getting Rhapsody to work either, I just listed it because other people had used it and it had a lot of their songs.

I was just joshing you man. I'm a fan of Kurdt Kobain, hence the name. :smile:

Interesting version of voyage, voyage



The female singer is puzzling. That's almost certainly Amelia Brightman singing but that's not the girl in this clip, is it?

Amelia Brightman

Just heard this again for the first time a few days ago. I love the beat to it.

Has someone mentioned this song yet? I bet Evo likes this one too.

Yep, that clinches it. I blame all the problems in society today on 70's fashion. Those pants are way too tight.

Storm and Thunder from Earth and Fire. World class, but this is not the original.

This thread takes all day to get through.
Thanks to everyone for reminding me of artists I should not have let slip away from my collection: http://youtube.com/watch?v=4fKo6aYe4Jg", Tull, et al..

Here're a few I like that I didn't see mentioned:

Joan Armatrading - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvMxSjIUx70"
http://youtube.com/watch?v=few4kiKjNzw" - BOB DYLAN
Kate Bush - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzbw-53g2CU"

And here's one that I have no explanation as to why I like it.
Plastic Bertrand - http://youtube.com/watch?v=PITnJAnmjqw"
Might be because I never saw the video until today.

one of the best piano pieces I have ever heard: "Takatau Monotachi"

GregA - Taktau Monotachi

Knowing who or what Tifa is/was would help. It sounds very New Age, so much so that George Winston could have done it...

Hmm...its one of the soundtracks from a film called "Advent Children" which itself is based upon a very popular game "Final Fantasy 7" of which Tifa is one of the main characters

Something different for this thread:

Radiohead - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=KgE29oRPhrI"
Better than "Paranoid Android," IMO, which of course is also great

Nine Inch Nails - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=SNLNcIC3r3k&feature=related"
Sorry, the only version I could find (that isn't Johnny Cash's cover) was the live version.

Björk - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=x5nNfbTS6N4"
Electronica music mixed w/ classical strings. Great stuff if you're into this style of music.

Nick Drake - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=pxAUXoH1KbM"
Excellent folk song.
