Shakira

Many many years ago, I would've gladly accepted, even shared, that kind of addiction.
Nowadays, it's more a case of this:

 

[Tink]

Very true Pixel, the Voice has become an addiction for many.
Shakira has always been one of my favourites and I have a passion for dance.
Great clip, Mr Burns, though I havent seen the movie, I heard its based on a true story.

A simple, poetic, but beautiful representation of man's tragedy aka the human condition.

 

[Some Dude]

One for the religious dudes and dudettes. I really wish this group had not broken up...

Someone smarter than myself once described Black Metal as being emotional detachment without apathy. To look within the darkness and find beauty.

She does some great work.

No second guesses as to which author influenced Summoning's music the most. Triumphant, graceful, magical, inspiring.... everything that is lost in this day and age.

Mannequin, mannequin... they're all the same....

I'll have to go through their youtube postings and have a listen. I heard them for the first time the evening I posted. They gave a concert titled "Love and Loss" and it was a back to the roots concert featuring only renaissance madrigals and some poetry readings from that time. It was a good performance. Unfortunately, the choir I sing in rehearses on Tuesday evenings which is when they usually perform so I am glad they gave a Wednesday evening performance on this occasion. A few madrigals from that program that I particularly liked were:

'Mille Regretz', Josquin Desprez
'Il Bianco e dolce cigno', and 'Ahime, dove 'l bel viso', Jacques Archadelt
'El Grillo', Josquin Desprez

I love a madrigal with a good dose of double entendre served up as metaphysical conceit and I really enjoy 'Il Bianco e dolce cigno' which we are learning in the choir I sing in.

At the concert they were selling recordings from their previous concert 'Put a Bird On It' for $5. Well worth the investment, although I thought the concert I attended was better (maybe because it was live and I had just shared a bottle of red with pasta before hand).

If you are a Sydney person and you haven't attended their concerts I encourage you to attend. Their website has a mailing list you can subscribe to.

Timeless. The variations of the main piano melody always gets me.
