Thanks, I haven’t watched that BTS video in a while. Rudi speaks. These BTS videos are of the same high quality as their music videos. I was thinking these music videos could actually be Wagner vacation videos. OK, we are at one of the most beautiful places on earth. What can we do to make our vacation video stand out? Hmm, let’s make a music video to show off these amazing landscapes. When someone asks if you want to see their vacation pictures, you politely agree and add a few oohs and aahs. But when the Wagners ask, it is a resounding , “Yes, please!” Their photography skills could be a separate gig on it’s own. The sky is not the limit with this crew.
Happy Monday,
JP

That is so kool. Handle with care.

I can’t find the quote from David Gilmour. I remember he once said something like,”What you don’t play is as important as what you do play.” Shine On You Crazy Diamond comes to mind. Once you know this song, waiting for that first guitar lick can be like torture, especially during live performances.
Movie soundtracks also come to mind. The most suspenseful scenes are shrouded in silence, and then Boo!, the audience reacts in unison. I think the absence of light can have the same effect in movies.
You mentioned the unresolved chord progression can create that suspense with the listener anticipating the return. So is that what is going on as the latest Duo Session ends?
Have you ever heard “Chapter 24” by Pink Floyd? It’s from their early works and written by Syd Barret.
from Wikipedia
All movement is accomplished in six stages…” – The lyric’s opening line appears to be taken from the I Ching’s instructions for performing a divination, which is accomplished in six stages, one for each row of the hexagram, and is used to select a hexagram and its corresponding chapter.
I found this video with lyrics

To give “If You Raise Your Head” a rest I clicked on “Nothing Is In Vain” and I was reminded they have been writing these incredible majestic masterpieces for quite some time. Each album touches on pop, rock, blues, ballads, and psychedelia. I think that if I heard songs like NIIV or Jump Ship before I knew who wrote them, I probably would not guess two young ladies from Austria when they were 21?
But let me tell you about my latest obsession. Since that last Q&A I have been trying to ignore the break between songs. One thing I like about concept albums is the absence of any gap between the songs, thus creating the concept of one long song. I think I have always assumed there was some kind of industry standard for gaps between songs, or it wasn’t a long gap, but a slow intro to the next song.
Like I said, I have been resisting 1-2-3…that last one was only two seconds? So which songs have the shortest gap and which have the longest rest between songs on “Why?”? And then we can count the length of the gaps on their other albums. Have they been doing this all along? and then on our favorite albums, and then every album we own, and this is not going to end well. Is every band doing this? Do solo artists do this? Is this done on vinyl, too? I’ll be pulling my hair out before you know it.
MLT Joy today was the new Duo Session. I like when their voices really take off towards the end. I hear that third twin when their voices sync perfectly like that. I am not familiar with this song, so I checked out the original and came back here really quick. I think Melanie will love the MLT cover of her song.

Same results here. While I was checking it, I remembered this one. It is a very special candid. Lisa and Michaela are so focused on getting Mona’s hair just right. I can not tell if Mona minds the pampering or not. Sometimes her Mona smile suggests she is the only one in on a joke. This picture shows a loving family with a super work ethic. If Michaela listed all of her skills and assignments she could fill a royal scroll.

Now I can go back and fix that post where I repeated myself. Now I can go back and fix that post where I repeated myself.

I have enjoyed reading this thread. Thanks for sharing your experiences. The power music has on our emotions amazes me.
I can not see or hear the name Emily without thinking of one of Pink Floyd’s first hits.
TGIF!

Very nice tribute, Dave. It’s easy to see this was written by a true fan. I can hear the melody as I read the lyrics.

So solemn…still gives me chills.

I’m so sorry for your loss, Jeannette. Addiction is a terrible disease. In grief for lost ones I like to listen to songs that remind me of their smile. Only a few clicks away from here.
Sometimes MLT Joy is like MLT magic.
