@Olivier5,
"Cold Wave" is another term new to me.
"Les Voyages Immobiles" was haunting.


Here's my morning song.


Taj Mahal & Keb’ Mo’ – “All Around The World”

@George,
Cold wave was a form of "cool" new wave. Like if the Cure had decided to chill out and take it easy.

@Olivier5,
"Saudade" is definitely cool and melancholy. I like it.


I need a bit of upbeat Ray Charles right about now.
Here he is with JT.

@Olivier5,
Interesting contrast between the bouncy beat and somber words of "Bleu
Comme Toi".


A bluesy sort of song


Michael Kiwanuka – “Home Again”

Great on by Jeanne, dear friend. Sorry I went astray. Fear factor again.

Saying good afternoon with another French song in English.

Good morning, WA2K!


"Ordinary Man" reminds me of my parents' stories of the Depression.

@George,
Good morning, dear friend. Hurry back my Irish friend. Odd, I thought I
played Galway Bay.(sorry for the spelling error) Remind me of what The Celtic Lady sang, ok?

Sorry if I missed any of yours and euroGeorge's songs.


Love Marc doing Walking and it is a type of depression. Smile

Frank doing Mack the Knife was a good one.

Marc doing Walking In Memphis was great.'


Here are The Irish Tenors:

Thanks, check out Tony Bennett. I think I destroyed my earlier contribute to him. Sad
