Annie's Song

John Denver - Annie´s Song
https://youtu.be/HkGS263lGsQ

Annies Song with Lyrics John Denver 3d BEAUTIFUL :)


Andre Rieu - Annie's Song 2009

From Wikipaedia
Background[edit]
"Annie's Song" was written as an ode to Denver's wife at the time, Annie Martell Denver. Denver "wrote this song in July 1973 in about ten-and-a-half minutes one day on a ski lift" to the top of Ajax Mountain in Aspen, Colorado, as the physical exhilaration of having "just skied down a very difficult run" and the feeling of total immersion in the beauty of the colors and sounds that filled all senses inspired him to think about his wife.[3][4] Annie Denver recalls the beginnings: "It was written after John and I had gone through a pretty intense time together and things were pretty good for us. He left to go skiing and he got on the Ajax chair on Aspen mountain and the song just came to him. He skied down and came home and wrote it down... Initially it was a love song and it was given to me through him, and yet for him it became a bit like a prayer."
"The first time I heard 'Annie's Song,' I told John it had the same melody as Tchaikovsky's Fifth Symphony, Second Movement," says Milt Okun. "He walked over to the piano, sat for an hour and came back, and the only thing remaining from Tchaikovsky was the first five notes. It was fantastic."[5]


Lyrics
You fill up my senses
Like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again
Come, let me love you
Let me give my life to you
Let me drown in your laughter
Let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you
Let me always be with you
Come, let me love you
Come love me again
Let me give my life to you
Come, let me love you
Come love me again
You fill up my senses
Like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again

Stairway paintings

email from Kamalini Kanapathippillai

Abandoning the flat canvas of buildings, some street artists take to the stairs, transforming them into magnificent works of urban art. It doesn't matter whether it's with paint, plants, mosaics or wallpapers – the end goal is beauty, shared and enjoyed by all. This phenomenon is not a localized one and is happening all around the world. These are 20 of the world's most stunning stairs:

WHAT A LOVELY  STORY - ​GOD BLESS….

8 boys were standing on a track for racing.
Ready !
Steady !
Bang !

With the sound of pistol all boys started running.

Hardly had they covered 10 to 15 steps,
1 boy slipped & fell.

He started crying due to pain.

When other 7 boys heard him, all of them STOPPED running, STOOD for a while, turned BACK & RAN
towards him.

All 7 boys LIFTED the boy, pacified him,
joined hands together, walked together &
reached WINNING Post.

Officials were shocked.

Many eyes were filled with tears.

It happened at Pune.

Now is the hour, Maori farewell song


'Now is the hour' sung by the St Joseph's Maori College Girls' Choir.

Vera Lynn - Now is the Hour
https://youtu.be/3-jz54Mf1Ok

Po atarau
E moea iho nei
E haere ana
Koe ki pamamao
Haere ra
Ka hoki mai ano
Ki i te tau
E tangi atu nei
Now is the hour, 
For you to say goodbye
Soon you'll be sailing, 
far across the sea.
While you're away, 
Oh please remember me.
When you return, 
you'll find me waiting here.

Now Is the Hour
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Now Is the Hour" is a popular song, though often erroneously described as a traditional Māori song.[1] It is usually credited to Clement Scott (music) and Maewa Kaihau & Dorothy Stewart (arrangement and lyrics).
Maori lyrics: Pö atarau e moea iho nei E haere ana koe ki pämamao Haere rä ka hoki mai anö Ki i te tau e tangi atu nei
English lyrics: Now is the hour for me say goodbye Soon you'll be sailing far across the sea While you're away oh please remember me When you return you'll find me waiting here

The tune of the song first became known in 1913 when it was published by W.H. Paling and Co as a piano-variations piece in Australia, called Swiss Cradle Song and credited to "Clement Scott". Some sources say that, after a tour of New Zealand, the British music critic and travel writer Clement Scott wrote the tune to the "Swiss Cradle Song".[3] However, the family of an Australian, Albert Saunders, has long claimed that the "Clement Scott" who wrote the tune is a pseudonym for Saunders.[4][5]In any event, the piece consisted of eight variations to the main 16-bar theme. Paling sold 130,000 copies of Swiss Cradle Song.[6]
Māori words were added around 1915 and the tune was slightly changed. It became known as Po Atarau and was used a farewell to Māori soldiers going to the First World War. After this, some white New Zealanders "mistakenly thought [the song was] an old Maori folksong".[1] One claim attributes the first words to two Māori groups of sheep shearers, the Grace and Awatere families, of Tuparoa.[5]

Please Read First Before Watching !

 Where are the Chairs?
Every once in a while there comes across the Internet something classy and worth spending some time watching. This is one of those times. 
But where are the chairs?
Absolutely wonderful!! Beautiful performance. A breath of fresh air, enjoy!
This is China's showcase to the world! Absolutely beautiful but …WHERE ARE THE CHAIRS?
Are those lady musicians sitting on invisible chairs?

Apparently NOT - it's a form of YOGA. This is actually being done in a yoga pose known as “chair posture”.

Lyrics

Chiquitita, tell me what's wrong
You're enchained by your own sorrow
In your eyes there is no hope for tomorrow
How i hate to see you like this
There is no way you can deny it
I can see that you're oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, tell me the truth
I'm a shoulder you can cry on
Your best friend, i'm the one you must rely on
You were always sure of yourself
Now i see you've broken a feather
I hope we can patch it up together

Chiquitita, you and i know
How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they're leaving
You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
Chiquitita, you and i cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita

So the walls came tumbling down
And your love's a blown out candle
All is gone and it seems too hard to handle
Chiquitita, tell me the truth
There is no way you can deny it
I see that you're oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, you and i know
How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they're leaving
You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
Chiquitita, you and i cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita

Irish joke

Long live the Irish so that we all can enjoy the best jokes.
JKS Weerasekera
Sean is the vicar of a Protestant parish in Southern Ireland, and Patrick 
is the priest at the Roman Catholic Church across the road.

One day they are seen together, erecting a sign which says:

"THE END IS NEAR. TURN YOURSELF AROUND NOW BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE."

As a car speeds past them, the driver leans out his window and yells,
 
"Leave people alone, you religious nutters. We don't need your lectures."

From around the next curve they hear screeching tires and a big splash.

Shaking his head, Father Patrick says "Dat's da terd one dis mornin'."

"Yaa," Sean agrees, then adds, "Do ya tink maybe da sign should just say

"BRIDGE CLOSED”?
