Well it isn't by Damion or Emin, as they would tell you that the person who painted that Russian pilgrimage scene can't paint.

To me it always evokes the lonely unknown life of the military spy, out in the field who's observations could change the course of war.

As a small child, at the very first time I heard this without being told, I knew it was the sea in music and both I have loved ever since, for there is to my mind no finer piece to express the drama and beauty of the oceans.

Heaven takes no notice of those crass comments, so neither should you. As your blessing is the true appreciation of this divine expression off the human voice. AA.

Thomas Tallis may have been very fortunate to have heard Angels singing, as this is as close as you can get and the experience though brief is one you will never forget. For Tallis in his time to have said, that this is where he got his inspiration from. May have lead to his burning at the stake...

Truly exquisite! Is there any need to say more, other than to say if one heard angels joining in, then I would not be surprised. Such is the power of Handel's Messiah.

The film seemed to lose that some thing the BBC 1981 version had.

With the wonderfully romantic execution of this, the most tender of Beethoven's work, you could most certainly make any man fall in love!

Funny how all film directors always shoe the earth as barren long before we had started cutting down the jungles?

And there will be those who will never sleep! But there is no real music composed for them unless some one knows some thing that I do not.

This song has a metaphysically romantic quality, that is hard to describe. I never tire of hearing it but of course, it is sung by one of the great artists of all time.

Only one singer can do this song proud and that is Roy Orbison

One of the finest English songs ever and when you consider, the age in which it was composed it has a timeless quality!

Always good to hear this song. It all ways reminds me of summer days in my youth.

Simple repetitive lyrics, though the rhythm flows in a captivating way, which is hard to describe!

Good blues.

There is no video? However this arrangement carries a true sense of distant, within the atmosphere generated by the main vocal thyme, as the saxophone absorbs the listener into the present emotional depth of this piece. Though it is a shame that it is not played in its entirety, which to my mind...

Will there ever be another! The finest version to fall upon human ears.

Just shows mankind dumps his crap every where!

Like all those European races, brutalized by the Roman empire they learnt very effectively, state organized murder.

Can we not have all the chat in the back ground as it soils the sound!

Pure energy to the spirit, so masterfully rendered, without any of those tacky vid's

Like nearly all the great masters of music such as Handel, they reach into ones soul. But these videos are so self indulgently vulgar, that they diminish the moment.
