What Song Are You Listening To?

Been listening to Adele's "Someone Like You" -- I can't hear/understand the lyrics, but I like the sound of the piano she's playing.

I don't like Mondays - Boomtown Rats

It's Monday morning and I haven't had enough sleep, so I thought I'd post this classic song from 1979

I have had a medley of classic songs going through from my piano playing days.

Bicycle Built for Two

Yellow Rose of Texas
and others,

then it moves to the classical songs I used to play

Minuet in G
Musette

a billion words ago
the sailors disappeared
a story for the children
to rock them back to sleep

a million burning books
like torches in our hands
a fabric of ideals
to decorate our homes

a thousand generations
the soil on which we walk
a mountain of mistakes
for us to climb for pleasure

a hundred clocks are ticking
the line becomes a circle
spin the wheel of fortune
or learn to navigate

a choir full of longing
will call our ships to port
the countless lonely voices
like whispers in the dark

a second of reflection can
take you to the moon
the slightest hesitation can
bring you down in flames

a single spark of passion
can change a man forever
a moment in a lifetime
is all it takes to break him

a fraction of a heartbeat
made us what we are
a brother and a sister
for better or for worse

a billion words ago
they sang a song of leaving
an echo from the chorus
will call them back again

a choir full of longing…
tonight we light the fires
we call our ships to port
tonight we walk on water
and tomorrow we'll be gone​

If I put pendulum on the headphones for my son he seems to really like it. We still aren't 100% on what he is hearing, but he doesn't really respond to a lot of things. He will dance his little face off to some jaguar love :-P
 
This is one of my favorites. It's a beautiful song in a sad kind of way. "The Scientist" by Coldplay. The first video is the ESL version and the second video is the live version that I like.

Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart

Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions
Oh, let's go back to the start
Running in circles, coming up tails
Heads on a science apart

Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh, take me back to the start

I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling the puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart

But tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are

Nobody said it was easy
Oh, it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start

Oh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ah ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Oh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Oh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
