I watch this documentary once a year if I can....I always learn something new within it.
With what is going on in today's world watching this series now makes me cry...like a child would cry.

Reminds me of this video.
"Where to Now St Peter?" by Elton John.
Video features the monuments of Gettysburg.

Sorry to hear that. I hope all goes well.

Hello everyone. This is just one of the best singers who I have heard sing this song. Of course, this song has pretty much always been one of my favorites.
I found this a few months ago while searching out what some of the Christian churches are doing around the world.

If angels can sing, then Sissel truly must be awfully close to how they might sound. She is truly blest with a wonderful and powerful voice, which she so easily and beautifully controls!!!

Sissel Kyrkjebø (Norwegian pronunciation: [ˈsɪsəl ˈçʏʁçəˌbʷøː], /ˈsisel ˈçyrçeˌbø/; born 24 June 1969 in Bergen), also simply known as Sissel, is a Norwegian soprano.
Sissel is considered one of the world's top crossover sopranos. Sissel's musical style runs the gamut from pop recordings and folk songs, to classical vocals and operatic arias. (full wiki bio - https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Sissel_Kyrkjebø )

Enjoy! (Sorry, must learn how to "embed")

If you put the URL to the video itself on Youtube, Vimeo, ... in between the video tags, and not a URL to a page with an article, it will work.

Thanks Garuda!

Hello all! :)

Nice choices on the music here!

Let me present you one of the most beautiful song and voice I ever heard:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1qZqKrPwiQ

Swim along the stream along the shore
seek between my thies a hidden fall
sink and swallow

wet boy
do you know what it feels like to be
wet

crawl against the wind inhale the salt
drown and let it melt inside my throat
deep and shallow

wet boy
do you know what it feels like to be
wet

more water to the world
more water to the seas
more water to the ground
more water to the child I carry

more water to my womb
more water to my brow
more water to my eyes
more water to the man I’ll marry

wet boy
do you know what it feels like to be
wet

Hope you'll love it as much as me.

Garuda, thank you so much. I will try what you suggest, the next time I try to post a video. This was my first try! :thumbup:

- Caledonia


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wP8A9rtg0iI



I don't know if you can see
The changes
that have come over me
In these last few days I've been afraid
That I might drift away
So I've been telling old stories,
singing songs
That make me think about where I came from
And that's the reason why I seem
So far away today

Oh, but let me tell you that I love you
That I think about you all the time
Caledonia you're
calling me
And now I'm going home
If I should become a
stranger
You know that it would make me more than sad
Caledonia's been everything
I've ever had

Now I have moved and I've kept on moving
Proved the points that I needed proving
Lost the friends
that I needed losing
Found others on the way
I have
kissed the ladies and left them crying
Stolen dreams, yes there's
no denying
I have traveled hard with coattails flying
Somewhere in the wind

(Chorus)
Now I'm sitting here before the fire
The empty room, the
forest choir
The flames that could not get any higher
They've withered now they've gone
But I'm steady thinking
my way is clear
And I know what I will do tomorrow
When the hands are shaken and the kisses flow
Then I will
disappear

In keeping with the tenor of this thread there's some real meaning right there, eh?

[Dood]

And now for something completely different...:cool:

This music was written and produced for a Role Playing Game called Skyrim (http://www.elderscrolls.com/skyrim/).
They wanted a 90 voice 'Barbarian Choir'.
They used 30 voices and tripled it...

In my opinion this is as good as ANY Movie Score.
Even some of the characters in this new game are very well know film actors.

This video is a Fan Made one and like many others I agree it should of been the actual trailer for the game.
My guess is 90% of it is real in game video...

Very well done...

You and I, and a little toy shop
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one, they were gone

Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message, "Some thing's out there"
Floating in the summer sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by

Ninety-nine red balloons
Floating in the summer sky
Panic lads, it's a red alert
There's something here from somewhere else

The war machine springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focusing it on the sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by

Ninety-nine Decision Street
Ninety-nine ministers meet
To worry, worry, super-scurry
Call the troops out in a hurry
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/n/nena-lyrics/99-red-balloons-lyrics.html ]

This is what we've waiting for
This is it boys, this is war
The President is on the line
As ninety-nine red balloons go by

Ninety-nine knights of the air
Riding super high-tech jet fighters
Everyone's a super hero
Everyone's a Captain Kirk

With orders to identify, to clarify and classify
Scrambling in the summer sky
As ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine red balloons go by

Ninety-nine dreams I have had
Every one a red balloon
Now it's all over and I'm standin' pretty
In this dust that was a city

If I could find a souvenir
Just to prove the world was here
And here is a red balloon
I think of you and let it go

Nice band

[Doc]

Something from another time, another life. Very theatrical in a style rich in detail, nuance and very much a thing of its era. If it is not to your taste, don't worry, nobody will do this again.

"One Touch of Venus" You might know the remake as "Mannequin".
