Indeed, JDX. The soundtrack of our lives. This song has made me cry every time I've heard it for decades.

The Great Mandala

Great thread, JDX. Music is inspirational to me. Here's another Rush song that I think says it all.



Closer To The Heart

And the men who hold high places
Must be the ones to start
To mould a new reality
Closer to the Heart

The Blacksmith and the Artist
Reflect it in their art
Forge their creativity
Closer to the Heart

Philosophers and Ploughmen
Each must know his part
To sow a new mentality
Closer to the Heart

You can be the Captain
I will draw the Chart
Sailing into destiny
Closer to the Heart

Ride the wild wind

still a favorite

(so how does one post the video here anyway)

Awesome vids Rob. LOL Mind meld.

What is the song/group of the "Quick Fly Quake" vid. That takes me WAY back, like Miami Vice territory.

First one is Seal - Crazy... second one is Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze

Yeah, Seal, Crazy, that's it. Thanks.

Been a little crazy all my life so I relate.

But we're never gonna survive unless, we get a little crazy.. crazy..
No we're never gonna to survive unless we are a little... crazy..
But we're never gonna survive unless, we get a little crazy.. crazy..
No we're never gonna to survive unless, we are a little.. crazy..
No no, never survive unless, we get a little bit...

And then you see things
The size
Of which you've never known before

They'll break it

Someday...

Hey, you forgot one...

Love Billy Joel. I have all of his "albums" and the CD replacements. I met the dude in Calgary or Edmonston back in the summer of '76 at a large hotel he was playing at. I didn't know who the hell he was, and he damned sure didn't know me. By the time I shook his hand he was FUBAR on cocktails. Played several of what were to be mega hits by him. "New York State of Mind" was one of the songs he played in the huge hotel bar. Me and the Texan I was with thought the boy had talent. We was right. I've seen him a couple more times in concert after he attained major celebrity status. Fantastic concerts. If he comes to your town, I highly recommend you get you sh*t together and attend.

Im dissapointed they cut the kiss at the end. Its the best part of the whole video.

Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction holding me fast, how
Can I escape this irresistible grasp?

Cant keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, i

Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
No navigator to guide my way home
Unladened, empty and turned to stone

A soul in tension thats learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Cant keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, i

Friction lock - set.
Mixture - rich
Propellers - fully forward
Flaps - set - 10 degrees
Engine gauges and suction - check

Mixture set to maximum percent - recheck
Flight instruments...
Altimeters - check both
(garbled word) - on
Navigation lights - on
Strobes - on
(to tower): confirm 3-8-echo ready for departure
(tower): hello again, this is now 129.4
(to tower): 129.4. its to go.
(tower): you may commence your takeoff, winds over 10 knots.
(to tower): 3-8-echo
Easy on the brakes. take it easy. its gonna roll this time.
Just hand the power gradually, and it...

Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night

Theres no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Cant keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, i

I used to see the NRA as something bad... when i watched mainstream media every day. I now see the NRA (...and Charlton Heston) in a very diffferent light since i 'woke up'.

Tyranny will not happen in this country overnight. But it will happen while we're sleeping. Thank god i'm awake!

Goodbye Blue Sky
