Some Music
« on: June 09, 2018, 07:50:57 PM »
Every once in a while, an Amazon music recommendation for me hits the nail on the head. This is one of those times. Caro Emerald:

Available for free for Amazon prime members:

In many ways she reminds me of Devil Doll.

Liked it, but kind of forgot about it.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

I found the UCD* Choral Scholars a month or so ago:

So, of course on the way back from Utah, I made Charby listen to songs like these while we were in Denver rush hour traffic:

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Good stuff up above.

I listened to the whole Caro Emerald album while I was making pain in the ass stuffed zucchini yesterday. Excellent music to cook by. :)

I stumbled across her channel a while ago.  Her cover of "Over the Hills and Far Away" is also worth a listen:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ec729nmajwc

I don't recall grey being outlawed after the war.  However, the British DID outlaw wearing Green in Ireland in 1798.
