What's the best song you have heard today?

Ha ha, I bet you did. Myself, I came to Oslo in the winter of 1985, so I got to see a few gigs at Club 7, before ii closed for good around Easter the same year.

I don’t think Lillebjørn, Øystein and all the others at Dolphins were inspred by Christy Moore. Although his debut is from 1969, it wasn’t until a few years into the 1970’s he became really active. Rather there’s a common inspiration here, namely the folk scene in Greenwich Village and traditional Irish folk songs :notes:.

showing my respect to Brad Arnold the leading singer of great rock band 3 Doors Down who has been diagnosed with Stage IV clear cell renal carcinoma which in all likely hood will end his singing career and maybe even his life he is my favourite song by his band

there are other life versions of this but this is my alltime favorite and one of my favorite songs at all

stevie nicks - edge of seventeen live 1981

a little story (who cares):
i’ve seen this in a disco on a large screen. i asked there who is it, what is it, where is it. but later i could not remember (it was a disco, drinks, pool party…)
about 20 years later i heard a short studio version on car radio. i did really not heard it in all that time. back home i started immediatly to search.
she has been on her ‘The Wild Heart Tour’ 1983 and for me it looked like you can find a video of this song or life concert CD from nearly every location where she has been.

one little thing about this all.
i’m new and was testing the last days here and mentioned, that you can not really find out :face_with_monocle:, if there is a song allready here or not, when the title is not written in the post. may be, a notice is allready anywhere here. than this is just to remember.
can be, that it is not importend, because the topic says: when you hear a great song every day again, you could post it here every day again.

and during testing, i noticed, that i have to correct me often :nerd_face: because i write/wrote sond instead of song :smiling_face: if you find the mistake any where…don’t tell me :disguised_face:

Happy Birthday to the Scottish singer and songwriter Donovan Phillips Leitch, usually known as just Donovan. He is turning 79 today! Donovan first got noticed in the mid 1960’s, when he had quite some success with several songs charting high in several countries. He got to number 1 in the US, New Zeeland and Switzerland, but for some reason never in the UK.

Donovan was initially heavily inspired by Bob Dylan, and the Greenwich Village folk scene in general. He has sometimes been dubbed as a “poor mans Dylan”, which I personally find to be a little unfair, as Donovan is a gifted songwriter on his own terms, with poetic lyrics and a good ear for melody.

Donovan also mixed psychedelia and British folk music into his songs. Although he’s a little forgotten these days, some of his songs are staples in the songbook from the folk and rock era of the 1960’s and beyond. Now here is a couple of great tunes for Donovan on his birthday :wine_glass:

Donovan - The Ballad of A Crystal Man

Donovan - Hurdy Gurdy Man

Don’t think too much about that. It’s good that you try to search. I do that too. However, this topic has been going for over three years now, so no wonder there’s a reprise or two now and then. How can we remember everything everytime all the time :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

the good thing here is: the videos are playing without that commercial shit :clap:

what, if we open a topic just named: ‘good music without commercial’
and the rules are: write only artist and title and link. may be genre. nothing else.
after a few years no need to search the typical media sites :rofl: that have all kind of videos and music stiles.

and every post with less than 10 like dissapears after 2 weeks or so. that makes he topic title real. count and time can be adjusted after a while of running and experience.

of course that all has nothing related to ‘VHTV’
