Trip Hop...A Music style that I love! let me share with you...(condivido con voi un genere musicale ke amo: Trip Hop) Note/Disclaimer: videos posted are not my property...but the reviews are mine (i commenti sono miei) updated 2011.2.26/Sat.

(Alison) Goldfrapp's **Utopia** is absolutely fantastic!  I have always loved it....but now, I have discovered a new version, a remix entitled *Sunroof remix*, and I think it is great!   I would like to put it in the Trip Hop category and, I'd like to add that it has similar sounds to Depeche Mode's way of conceiving Music...Here's to you and you and...You!

Shara Nelson gives her fantastic voice on this track by Massive Attack--they have cameo appearances from outsiders on their musical work--entitled Unfinished Sympathy, from 2007 circa.  She gives a haunting edge to the whole song, making you want to listen to it over and over again and walk with her until the end of nowhere...(Ognitanto Massive Attack usano altre voci ospiti per i loro brani, come per questa song, dal suono malinconico, reso ancora piu' vero dalla voce incredibile di Shara Nelson...Ti viene voglia di camminare con lei, in solidarieta', fino alla fine dei tempi...)

Christmas around the world...as all kinds of thoughts come unfurled (km*copyright)

today is December 31, the last day of 2010!  are you wishing it goodbye?  are you sad that it's going to be leaving?  any regrets?  I have chosen this uptempo (Christmas) song, entitled *Merry Christmas Everyone*, sung by Shakin' Stevens--an Artist whom I interviewed in the eighties...as a matter of fact, I had a crush for him!  ih ih ih (;o)*  ((oggi e' il 31 Dicembre, l'ultimo giorno del 2010!  Lo stai salutando?  sei dispiaciuto/a al fatto ke sta per partire?  qualke lamentela o rimorso?  Ho scelto questa song (di Natale ancora!),  un po' uptempo/veloce, dal titolo *Buon Natale a Tutti*, cantata da Shakin' Stevens--un Artista ke ho intervistato negli anni Ottanta...anzi, mi ero invaghita di lui...eh eh eh))

HAPPY~NESS FOR YOU ON THE LAST DAY OF 2010!!!!!!! (FELICITA' PER TE NELL'ULTIMO GIORNO DEL 2010!!!!!!!)

Music versus Artists...(Note/DISCLAIMER: I do not own any of these videos...or the music contained therein...instead, THE REVIEWS are mine)Updated on 2011.8.8/Mon.

Has it ever happened to you to listen to a song, and then just want to listen over and over and over again?  Well, this tune, as sung by Long John Baldry, is a fixed sensation in my mind.  I found out about it just by mere chance (and also because of my knack to remembering tunes and words...)  I saw a piece of an old movie a few evenings ago (I don't know title nor have I looked it up...the movie was half way finished by the time I hooked up to the screen...eh eh eh)  Anyway, it has Susan Sarandon, Goldie Hawn, and Goeffrey Rush in it, and I love all three actors!  At one point (during a sort of sad setting, where Susan was drinking and remembering her life as a roadie), I hear, in the distant background, this tune.  I didn't know who it was, the title, nothing...I remembered what I thought were the key words, looked it up on Youtube, discovered that many Rock stars have sung this song, but nothing like Long John's version!  and...this in fact was what was part of the movie score:  Long John Baldry...What a cool voice!  Melanchonic blues...absolutely awesome! (imo)  A white guy with a black guy's voice!  I love you!   Posted on 2011.8.8/Mon.

the Orb and Pink Floyd *Wish You Were Here*...this goes to show you how Rock and Chillout~electronic sounds can make a perfect match and blend in together as smoothly as eating your favorite dab of icecream...  (;o)*

Electrical Storm, a song by U2, that was released in 2002...a William Orbit musical production.  I love this song, it has a wonderful sound, with melanchonic lyrics, driven straight to the point by Bono's warm voice.  The video is interesting (directed by Anton Corbijn), also thanks to the (sensual) interpretation of Larry Mullen (U2) himself!

a song by Patti Smith, People Have the Power...this was sung by a variety of Artists (together with the Boss--Bruce Springsteen) in my hometown (Washington, DC) in 2004...And yes, we do have the Power!  to fight away wars and to bring skies of Peace...

(una canzone di Patti Smith, People Have the Power--IL Popolo ha il potere--cantata da una varieta' di Artisti (anke con the Boss--Bruce Springsteen) nella mia citta' (Washington, DC), nel 2004--ancora sotto il dominio di Bushit...e si, noi abbiamo la Forza!  di combattere via le guerre e portare cieli di Peace/Pace...)

The Power of Love by Frankie Goes to Hollywood...a track from the Eighties:  who would have imagined this crazy Band dishing out such a powerful yet delicate, mellow song?!  The lyrics are quite poetic and romantic.  You wouldn't expect something like this from a (crazy) Group, who had raved the dance floors with their (double-meaning) Relax!  I danced with them in a disko, having the fun of our lives!  (together with the Village People too!)  We really had fun!  ((The Power of Love--La Forza dell'amore--di Frankie Goes to Hollywood...una canzone degli anni ottanta:  ki avrebbe mai immaginato ke questo Gruppo (folle) sarebbe uscito con una cosi' potente e delicata canzone melodiosa?!  Le parole sono piuttosto poetike e romantike.  Non ti saresti mai aspettato un brano del genere da un Gruppo ke ha fatto impazzire le diskoteke con il loro Relax dal doppio senso!  Ho ballato con loro in diskoteka, divertendoci all'inverosimile, anke con i Village People!

videos (by world Artists) on the topic *Peace*

one of my favorite songs:  Imagine, by John Lennon...this is not just a song, it is a poem.  Words that are heartfelt and full of Love:  a dream that John had when he thought of the lyrics, a dream that I have (Peace in the world), a dream that you have...and one day it will be a reality.  It can happen (also thanks to you and me)!

Peace...always...forever...

(una delle mie canzoni preferite:  Imagine, di John Lennon...non e' solamente una canzone, e' una poesia.  Parole ke vengono dal cuore e sono piene d'Amore:  un sogno ke John aveva quando ha pensato alle parole, un sogno ke ho Io (Peace nel mond), un sogno ke hai tu...e, un giorno, sara' realta'.  Puo' succedere!  (anke grazie a te...a me)

Peace...sempre...per sempre

Peace is just a word just a word...words from Eurythmics' same titled song.  Not necessarily so!  It may not be easy (but living isn't very easy sometimes, either... Peace can become a reality:  let's join in and do something, all together...  ((Peace e' solamente una parola...una parola...parole di una canzone degli Eurythmics, dallo stesso titolo.  Non e' cosi', se vogliamo essere sinceri!  Forse non e' facile (ma Lo stesso vivere, a volte, non e' facile...  Peace puo' diventare una realta':  sottoscriviamo e facciamo qualcosa tutti, tutti insieme...))

Let's see if Faithless's *Insomnia* will load up:  am testing it all out!  yeah yeah yeah  (in fact, it didn't!  so I'll post one of my videos--recent, from the end of Oct. 2010)
