Five Man Electric Band - Signs with Lyrics





Signs (Five Man Electrical Band song)


In the final verse, the hippie shares his experiences of going to a church. After pointing out a sign reading "Everybody welcome. Come in, kneel down and pray," he is asked to contribute to the offering; however, when he realizes he has no money, he takes out a slip of paper, writing on it :


"Thank you, Lord for thinking about me, I'm alive and doing fine."

Amusing Quotes



The Golden Rule is that there are no golden rules.  Do not do unto others as you would they should do unto you;  their tastes may not be the same.  - George Bernard Shaw



Never call a man a fool; borrow from him. - Addison Mizner



Worries go down better with soup than without.  - Yiddish Proverb



It is a good idea to "shop around" before you settle on a doctor.  Ask about the condition of his Mercedes.  Ask about the competence of his mechanic.  Don't be shy!  After all, you're paying for it.

-- Dave Barry



When you handle yourself, use your head; when you handle others, use your heart.  -- Donna Reed



The great rule is not to talk about money with people who have much more or much less than you.

- Katherine Whitehorn






James Brown and the Famous Flames





Listening to James being played in the Sonny Liston training camp made me wonder who the sax player was... no answer here but James was sure around for many, many years... 6 decades.

Casta Diva Lyrics


Sung in the first act of Bellini’s famous opera, Normathe high priestess Norma is visited by a group of angry Druids. They beseech her to declare war on Rome, whose soldiers occupy the Druids’ land and oppress their citizens. 
Norma assuages their fury and convinces them that now is not the time to fight. If patient, the Romans will fall by their own doing; an intervention is not necessary. 
Norma sings a prayer to the moon goddess, asking for peace.  
What is not known by the other Druids is that Norma has fallen in love with a Roman. She secretly hopes no war will be fought so that her lover will be safe.



 
Notable Normas

Casta Diva Italian Lyrics

Casta Diva, che inargenti 
queste sacre antiche piante, 
a noi volgi il bel sembiante 
senza nube e senza vel... 
Tempra, o Diva, 
tempra tu de’ cori ardenti 
tempra ancora lo zelo audace, 
spargi in terra quella pace 
che regnar tu fai nel ciel…

Casta Diva English Translation

Pure Goddess, whose silver covers 
These sacred ancient plants, 
we turn to your lovely face 
unclouded and without veil... 
Temper, oh Goddess, 
the hardening of your ardent spirits 
temper your bold zeal, 
Scatter peace across the earth 
Thou make reign in the sky...






Casta Diva Lyrics and Text Translation - Norma's Aria "Casta Diva" Lyrics from Bellini's Norma:

Sumi Jo sings "Amazing Grace" in her pop voice.


Uploaded on Feb 17, 2009
Beautiful "pop" rendition of Amazing Grace, acapella, by korean coloratura soprano, Sumi Jo. From her album "Prayers".
Her ability to switch from a high soprano bel canto placement to that of a pop vocalist is quite beautiful, and perhaps more successful than that of someone like Sarah Brightman. Her pitch is also quite wonderful, it's a small but focused sound, very beautiful.
