My goodness! I love how it is just so casual about it - hey, look, a morsel!

Glad I wasn't the one operating the equipment, though. I don't keep calm that well when that kind of thing happens. :blackeye:

This short (15 minute) Swedish film made me cry. It was very sweet.

When it comes to Irish (or in this case, Scottish/Canadian) tenors, I prefer this John (McDermott)
Still have fond memories of watching him live at Roy Thompson Hall for a Christmas concert in December of 2003, just before Roger suffered his stroke:



Edit: I NEVER seem to be able to get Youtube videos to embed! Grrrr...cut and paste, folks... :(
When the night has been too lonely, and the road has been too long,
And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong,
Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows,
Lies the seed, that with the sun's love, in the spring becomes The Rose.

Sunny, just remove the 's' from "https". That should do it.

One of the Sunday school classes at my brother's church did this at Christmas many years ago. It was absolutely HILARIOUS!!!

Some brilliant person has edited scenes from the lovely BBC Nativity to This Woman's Work by Kate Bush.

It really, really works. :love:

Publicity gimmick for upcoming production of Rossini's Guillaume Tell:



(I'm not sure how they managed the special effects. I'm equally sure that it's not what it looks like - no way would they take that chance :D )

Yesterday I followed a rabbit trail that led me into the world of youtube videogame music covers. There are lots of these, and some of the artists are clearly making money from them--in some cases going as far as selling albums. That got me wondering if any of this is legal--can a composer copyright a melody itself, or only their particular arrangement of it? Or are all these individuals actually buying rights to every song they cover and somehow still keeping a positive bottom line?
