guy 156 Report post Posted June 19, 2016 (edited) Off early through the desert for some spiritual renewal in the one place I'm sure to get it ... Las Vegas. It will be at least 110 degrees (or 43.3 Celsius) as I race thru the desert. Although I'm off to see Steve Windwood and Steely Dan, I will be listening to this as I drive thru similar scenery as this clip: guy also known as gaius Edited June 19, 2016 by guy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

caesar novus 49 Report post Posted July 6, 2016 (edited) ...now i am curious I just got a shock of recognition that this and some of my other posts assume that bad/sick taste equals amusing. Maybe not so to some, so first check if this crass Roman singer seems funny. In this movie he is ubermacho, but youtube also shows the original broadway version where he was softened to be quite effeminate. IF you can find amusement in that, below is what I originally posted. Maybe there is something wrong in finding musical hilarity in modern tragedy, but the singer is half Cherokee satirizing his redneck relatives lifestyle.

caldrail 152 Report post Posted November 3, 2019 Prayer For The Dying from the 1990's Coverdale & Page album. It might be a hackneyed theme, but you can't argue with talent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It might be a hackneyed theme, but you can't argue with talent. I finally looked at the lyrics. Interesting stuff. "Whisper A Prayer For The Dying" I hear the sound of distant thunder echo all around I see the tragedy of young ones lying on the ground I see the fathers' sons and daughters, I hear the mothers crying Nothing left for me to do, whisper a prayer for the dying Oh, oh, a prayer for the dying The suffocating heat of jungles, burning desert sands Where everything reminds you, you're a stranger in a strange land The soothing words of politicians, those bodyguards of lies While guardian angels waste their time and every mother cries Oh, oh, a prayer for the dying, dying, dying Oh, oh Machine gun, battle cry You pray to God when the bullets fly The bombs fall like black rain And all your dreams take you home again Nothing but bad dreams You can't read, you can't write You're so scared, you can't sleep at night You try to carry the heavy load Walking down Armageddon road, oh, Armageddon roadI hear the sound of distant thunder echo all around I see the tragedy of young ones lying on the ground I see the fathers' sons and daughters, I hear the mothers crying Nothing left for me to do but whisper a prayer for the dying Oh, a prayer for the dying, dying Oh, a prayer for the dying, baby, baby Oh, a prayer for the dying, dying Whisper a prayer for the dying, oh You can't run, you can't hide You can't show what you feel inside You're going crazy, going insane You know you'll never be the same again, no, no Whisper a prayer for the dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, no, no Armageddon road, Armageddon road, I'm walking down Armageddon road Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caldrail 152 Report post Posted January 13, 2020 And now for something completely different. Rock guitarist Yngwie Malmsteen and his album playing classical-esque music with the Prague Symphony Orchestra. It actually does work. Not for everyone, of course, but I rather like it.

caesar novus 49 Report post Posted November 7, 2021 (edited) A bare bones version and a super embellished version of Lou Reed's Rock 'n Roll track: This version features embellishment by cult guitar maestros Steve Hunter and Dick Wagner who only worked briefly with him, then he reverted to less accessible "cool" style. He cultivated an image of unconventional sexuality, but I saw him in a first class line at Rome airport after a concert and he had the most conventionally stylish and stunning girl companion I have ever seen even in rockstar photos.
