An Admiration of Music

Post by Redbeck »

Is admiration a genuine collective noun?.... I don't care, it should be, enriching the English language is an admirable pursuit in my eyes. An admiration of music, sits well amongst the other curios: a shrewdness of apes, a sloth of bears, a charm or chattering of goldfinches and a convocation of eagles, to name but a few, but allow me to throw in my favourite, a fling of dunlins ( which are small dull brown wader birds).

Anyway, we have a rolling admiration of poetry and fine art already in place, both of which appear to have been well subscribed over their life span thus far, so why not indeed. All genres of music are welcome. So let us kick off with three pieces which have great synergy with 973-eht-namuh-973.com and have proved inspirational to its creator and content architect David Denison.

Münchener Freiheit: Keeping The Dream Alive
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osxg-NiQNaQ

Freiheit - Keeping The Dream Alive lyrics. From the Original Motion Picture ... In my fantasy I remember their faces The hopes we had were much too high ... www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/f/freiheit/ke ... alive.html


Tonight the rain is falling
Full of memories of people and places
And while the past is calling
In my fantasy I remember their faces

The hopes we had were much too high
Way out of reach but we have to try
The game will never be over
Because we're keeping the dream alive

I hear myself recalling
Things you said to me
The night it all started
And still the rain is falling
Makes me feel the way
I felt when we parted

The hopes we had were much too high
Way out of reach but we have to try
No need to hide no need to run
'Cause all the answers come one by one
The game will never be over
Because we're keeping the dream alive

I need you
I love you

The game will never be over
Because we're keeping the dream alive

The hopes we had were much too high
Way out of reach but we have to try
No need to hide no need to run
'Cause all the answers come one by one

The hopes we had were much too high
Way out of reach but we have to try
No need to hide no need to run
'Cause all the answers come one by one

The game will never be over
Because we're keeping the dream alive

The game will never be over
Because
we're keeping the dream alive

The game will never be over

Mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm.

Quite an admirable topic of discussion you have brought up. They say music, truly inspired music, comes from the soul. It feeds our emotions, Heals our souls (However metaphorically you wish to take that statement), Gives us inspiration. Some of the most inspired works i can think of include the famous works of classical artists. Fantasia is a well known example of music and emotions harmoniously working together to create a majestic and a beautiful work of art in itself.

Works like Bolero
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r30D3SW4OVw
(Fun fact about Bolero. There is a record that is called oreloB that is Bolero played from the inside of the record out to the edge. This is done because the inner circle rotates faster than the outside, which is an obvious fact of physics but because of this fact, it handles softer tones better than loud energetic sounds, whereas the outer edge which takes longer to rotate around is more adept at handling these loud energetic tones as seen towards the climax of Bolero.)

Canon in D Major.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stCKjZniMsQ

Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XV6nhmRrLg

There is also the works of Gustav Holst - The Planets, Op. 32 in which each song is based on one of seven planetary bodies in our solar system. (Mars, Venus, Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHVsszW7Nds

And these are just to name a few inspirational works of musical history.

Bob Dylan is one of the most influential singer-song writer of the 20th century. Known for his songs that chronicle
social and political issues,
Dylan was born Robert Allen Zimmerman on May 24, 1941 in Duluth, Minnesota. While attending college, he began
performing folk and country songs, taking the name of "Bob Dylan." In 1961 Dylan signed his first recording contract,
and he emerged as one of the most original and influential voices in American popular music.
His song Lay,lady,lay

My absolute favourite, I always thought it was a very romantic song, then I read that Dylan probably was singing
about his dog, Lady.

Lay, lady, lay
Lay across my big brass bed
Lay, lady, lay
Lay across my big brass bed
Whatever colurs you have in your mind
I'll show them to you and you'll see them shine

Lay, lady, lay
Lay across my big brass bed
Stay, lady, stay
Stay with your man awhile
Until the break of day, let me see ya' make him smile
His clothes are dirty but his, his hands are clean
And your're the best thing that he' ever seen

"Wildfire"

You think you know all about it then it seems you are wrong,
She hit it out of the park before it'd even begun,
I needed sunshine in the darkness burning out,
Well now I know that I'm the fuel and she's the spark.

We are bound to each other's hearts,
Cold, torn, and pulled apart
This love, is like wildfire,
And to my word now I'll be true,
I can't stop this breaking loose
This love, is like wildfire,
Like wildfire.

This feelings arranged deep down inside,
Try describing a love you can't design,
More and more, every inch of me is holding on,
This is it all the flames are burning strong.

We are bound to each other's hearts,
Cold, torn and pulled apart
This love, is like wildfire,
And to my word now I'll be true,
I can't stop this breaking loose
This love, is like wildfire,
Like wildfire,
Like wildfire.

You think you know all about it then it seems you are wrong,
She hit it out of the park before it'd even begun.

We are bound to each other's hearts,
Cold, torn and pulled apart
This love, is like wildfire
And to my word now I'll be true,
I can't stop this breaking loose
This love, is like wildfire,
Like wildfire,
Like wildfire,
Like wildfire.

Excellent post Koguntetsu, thank you kindly. I thought you might find this interesting. Redbeck

Back in 2007, Italian musician and computer technician Giovanni Maria Pala claimed to have discovered musical notes encoded in Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper. Da Vinci, renowned for hidden messages in his work, and a Renaissance genius in all art forms as well as science is now believed to have left behind a solemn musical composition to accompany the mural painting in the refectory of the Convent of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan.

"It sounds like a requiem," Giovanni Pala said. "It's like a soundtrack that emphasises the passion of Jesus."
Painted from 1494 to 1498 The Last Supper depicts Jesus' at his last meal with the Twelve Apostles prior to his arrest and crucifixion.

Pala, a 45-year-old musician based near the southern Italian city of Lecce, began studying Leonardo's mural in 2003, after listening to a radio programme in which researchers were convinced that the artist had hidden a musical composition in the work. "As a musician,” he said, “I wanted to dig deeper."

Pala explained in a book on the subject published in Italian how he extracted components of the painting with symbolic value in Christian theology and then reinterpreted them as musical clues.

Pala discovered that if he drew the five lines of a musical stave across the painting, the loaves of bread on the table as well as the hands of Jesus and the apostles could each accurately represent a musical note. This he found fitted well with the relationship inherent to Christian symbolism between the bread, representing the body of Christ, and the hands, used to bless the food. However, the resultant notes made no sense musically until Pala had a brainwave, coming to the conclusion that the score would have to be read from right to left, in other words the direction in which Leonardo wrote.

The result is a slow 40-second "hymn to God" that Pala said sounded best on a pipe organ.

Alessandro Vezzosi, director of a Leonardo museum, confirmed the musician's theory as "plausible." Earlier research had indicated that the hands of the Apostles in the painting could represent the notes of a Gregorian chant, although the bread had not been included in the original decipher. Vezzosi also noted that while Leonardo was acknowledged more for his paintings, sculptures and visionary scientific engineering design, he was like many ultra-creative people a musician.

Now that IS something interesting, and quite chillingly beautiful in it's interpretation.

THIS WAS LUKE KELLY’S LAST SONG ON HIS FINAL APPEARANCE
THE NIGHT VISITING SONG


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXxzYtfrdFw

THE NIGHT VISITING SONG

I must away now, I can no longer tarry
This morning's tempest, I have to cross
I must be guided without a stumble
Into the arms, I love the most

And when he came to his true love's dwelling
He knelt down gently upon a stone
And through her window, he whispered lowly
Is my true lover within, at home?

Wake up, wake up, love, it is thine own true lover
Wake up, wake up, love, and let me in
For I am tired, love, and oh, so weary
And more than near, drenched to the skin

She raised her up on her down soft pillow
She raised her up and she let him in
And they were locked in each other's arms
Until, that long night was past and gone

And when that long night was past and over
And when the small clouds began to grow
He's taken her hand and they kissed and parted
And he saddled and mounted, and away he did go

I must away now, I can no longer tarry
This morning's tempest, I have to cross
I must be guided without a stumble
Into the arms I love the most

LYRICS:
I've been travelin for some time (echo)
With my fishin pole and my bottle of shine (echo)
On these long dark dusty roads (echo)
Lookin there's nowhere to go
I guess I gotta hide away, far away
Cause I gotta find a way, to find my way
I gotta hide away, far away
Cause I gotta find a way, to find my way
Ay-ay-ay ay-ay-ay aaay

[Verse 1: Bubba Sparxxx]
I left off of mama's with my thumb in the wind
The leaves on the ground, winter's comin again
Solid on the surface as I crumble within
But legends are made out of vulnerable men
So on the brink of death I still manage livin life
Cause so rarely in this world are these chances given twice
I indeed sold my soul, without glancing at the price
No instructions when I was handed this device
But with what I did get, I was more than generous
Put others over self on several instances
But I'm back on my feet without a hint of bitterness
And one way or another I shall have deliverance
So I say

I've been travelin for some time (echo)
With my fishin pole and my bottle of shine (echo)
On these long dark dusty roads (echo)
Lookin there's nowhere to go
I guess I gotta hide away, far away
Cause I gotta find a way, to find my way
I gotta hide away, far away
Cause I gotta find a way, to find my way
Ay-ay-ay ay-ay-ay aaay


Can you recall a time people loved you unconditionally?
Toast in the new south, this one is for history
Then I slipped fell and caused the number's injury
Called the same people and it's yo you just missed them B
This the formula, dammit Bubba you had it
Why'd you have to keep it Polo and New Balance?
Then they start to question whether you a true talent
Or just a redneck substance abuse addict
So then you hide away just to try to find your way
And now they back to callin you 200 times a day
I want all y'all to know, good or bad I'll remember it
And 10 million sold in the name of my deliverance


I've been travelin for some time (echo)
With my fishin pole and my bottle of shine (echo)
On these long dark dusty roads (echo)
Lookin there's nowhere to go
I guess I gotta hide away, far away
Cause I gotta find a way, to find my way
I gotta hide away, far away
Cause I gotta find a way, to find my way
Ay-ay-ay ay-ay-ay aaay

Nothing could atone for the pain you've endured
The blood you shed is still stained in your valour
You took your wealth and knowledge and gave it to the poor
Only to discover that your savior's manure
Accepted me as kin, put before your younger brother
They put a lot on us hardly knowin one another
I honestly can say that over time I've come to love you
Now we are brothers and together no one can touch us
It haunts me with regret I never met your baby girl
She's an angel on your shoulder helpin us to save the world
This musical marriage is no coincedence
So my mama to me baby we shall have deliverance
So we say

I've been travelin for some time (echo)
With my fishin pole and my bottle of shine (echo)
On these long dark dusty roads (echo)
Lookin there's nowhere to go
I guess I gotta hide away, far away
Cause I gotta find a way, to find my way
I gotta hide away, far away
Cause I gotta find a way, to find my way
Ay-ay-ay ay-ay-ay aaay

3-Souled Woman by Mother Cyborg.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbr2mmNP9rA

Had this just been a fancy song, i would have given it a quick like on youtube and leave it as that. However this particular individual known as "Mother Cyborg" has a more fascinating back story that i wish to share. Mother cyborg is one of several people coming together in the Detroit area to bring free high speed internet to those who cannot afford it on their own. I myself have been attempting to gather parts and components to build my own mesh networking nodes around the city using solar powered Raspberry Pi's and with old routers by flashing them with a custom firmware. I bring attention to this because too many people world wide suffer from not having proper access to the internet due to there being no underground wires in their region, while others simply cannot afford it. (me being one of them, only able to afford internet due to getting the $5 per month Access from AT&T.) Mesh network projects are beginning to pop up all over the place (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_w ... _by_region) and if i can help the community in even this small way, it will, in the long run, make a huge difference in the way people receive internet.

Amendment: This article talks about the Detroit project in further detail. https://moneymaven.io/blackwealthchanne ... Xyob6Lw2Q/
