Each time I hear this song and no matter who sings it, I feel energized. It somehow fills me with a long burning fire with such power that I feel ready for anything.  :guitar:

Feeling very misanthropic lately. It'll be 8 years that this has been a standby song for such moods. ETA: I should forewarn it is Watain so not everyone's cuppa!

Oh, wow, You Tea.  I really, really like this!  This is so cool.  Thanks for posting the link to this.

Ok, well, I was a big fan of the Eurovision Song Contest for decades.  Yes, I admit it.  It's so kitschy that it's iconic.  Perhaps some of you saw the Will Farrell movie "Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga".  If not, and if you are in the sort of Watain mood, maybe this movie will help.  It's silly but so true to the art form.  Will Farrell's wife is Swedish, so perhaps he learned about the song contest from her.

Anyway, imagine my surprise and delight when I found out that the Eurovision Song Contest was going to be broadcast here in the US!!!!!!!  Oh, I was giddy with joy and watched it all.  For proprietary reasons, perhaps, I can't find an official Eurovision youtube vid to share of the winner, but the band that won, Maneskin, is an Italian band and won a song contest at Sanremo.  Italian rock lives!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aA12F2ZBtJ0

I knew absolutely nothing about this band, so after a bit of youtube surfing, I found this song of theirs that just tugs at my lil' ol' heart strings.

Glad that it is liked! It is a very good "nice song" versus the other Watain material that I don't typically share with people. A lot of the time it hurts people's ears and then it turns into "what is theistic Satanism?" which often turns into downhill conversations.

I watch Eurovision too! Not that I am a "fan", but it just is one of those events that mark a season of the year. To be honest, I was kind of shocked that Maneskin won. Not because of their song, or their performance, but just because, it was rock. And then, on social media, SO MANY people complained and believed the lead singer had used cocaine (whilst at the competition) and caught it on camera. Moral panic! It was a situation for a bit.

It's funny because they were showing up in social media ahead of the competition because the fashion house Etro designed outfits for them. I never paid them any attnetion, so then on competition day, I was like, Oh..those are those people.

How nice that a little musical investigation led you to something that tugs at your little heart strings!

I was shocked, too, that rock made such an impact at the contest.  What was so revealing was just how out of step the "jury" was from the public, but that's part of the fun of Eurovision.  We all know which countries will give their 12 votes to their neighbor.  Of course, when the UK got no votes from anyone, the first thing everyone thought was, "That's for BREXIT!"

My husband loves those reaction videos on youtube and will occasionally suggest a rock song he likes to various "reactors".  I can see the appeal of watching someone react to a kind of music they never would have heard had not someone said, "Listen to THIS!"  I think I posted somewhere on this thread a reaction video of two Black teenagers listening to Dolly Parton's "Jolene" for the first time.  So, I am amused to watch various American "reactors" who had never heard of Eurovision post reaction videos to Maneskin's performance at the contest.  I like open minded music lovers.

Yeah, the whole drug thing was unfortunate and unfair.  The band members were furious and demanded a drug test to prove this was untrue, and that was that.  I hope someone apologized to them.

Spot on about the jury! It seemed as though France was about to sweep the competition! Understood, though, as it seems French bard-y sort of songs always tend to touch certain sorts of people and leave others disinterested. I find it cool when many votes, or a majority of them, go to countries that sing in their own languages. Italian rock was nice a change than the stale English only mediocre pop songs!

Not sure if you know this, but the Russian entry Manizha caused quite a stink at home. The song was too feminist or whatnot and people launched so many complaints. After that, a blogger wrote something like Manizha was actually supported by the government, and it turned into a lawsuit?! Not sure what's happening now, but I was like, wow...Eurovision drama and not in the fun way, like a costume malfunction!

I know it infuriates most of the continent, but I get a kick out of the "we know who's going to give their douze points to who!" moments. Often in the Balkans!  :lol; I did have a bit of an aww moment for the UK with their 0 points!

On And On
https://youtu.be/3oByMiF4hPg

Lyrics

Down in Jamaica, they got lots of pretty women
Steal your money, then they break your heart
Lonesome Sue, she's in love with old Sam
Take him from the fire into the frying pan

On and on, she just keeps on trying
And she smiles when she feels like crying
On and on, on and on, on and on

Poor old Jimmy sits alone in the moonlight
Saw his woman kiss another man
So he takes a ladder, steals the stars from the sky
Puts on Sinatra and starts to cry

On and on, he just keeps on trying
And he smiles when he feels like crying
On and on, on and on, on and on

When the first time is the last time
It can make you feel so bad
But if you know it, show it
Hold on tight, don't let her say goodnight

Got the sun on my shoulders and my toes in the sand
Woman's left me for some other man
Aw, but I don't care, I'll just dream and stay tanned
Toss up my heart and see where it lands

On and on, I just keep on trying
And I smile when I feel like dying
On and on, on and on, on and on
On and on, on and on, on and on
On and on, on and on, on and on

Admittedly, I am not into opera but found myself comforted by Andrea Bocelli's performance. At the height of Covid unleashing a terrible brutality upon us, Mr. Bocelli used his celebrity and wanting to offer hope, he gave the world what he could; his beautiful and calming voice. It has comforted me ever since. Perhaps now I am into opera.

One of the most honest Chopin-compositions : Etude op 25 no 12 :

Chopin was extremely unwell at the time of composing this Etude and certainly must have felt very deeply, that his time was about to "run out" and whilst composing this particular Etude, it comes over very strongly, that Chopin expressed similar thoughts like Dylan Thomas :

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light...


Georges Cziffra : Chopin etude op.25 no. 12

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

P.S. Studying Georges Cziffra's life makes it very understandable, why he could convey Chopin's situation so perfectly in such a "stormy" way ...

Ah kristina! I love the Highwaymen! (And enjoy each singer in their own right - big fan of Waylon). Hard to believe I first heard them on a bootleg cassette that someone had and pretty much tossed out and I got hooked on this song. Probably explains a lot about my life decisions!  :rofl;
