The bliss of bach

Posted Posted by ts lim in Comments 1 comments

with this piece, not many will say they don't like classical. Listening to classical music you got to slow down, you got to be patient, you got to have a delicate sense, it is like drinking coffee without sugar, slowly and gradually you will find it very tasty and you will like it. It's like drinking Chinese tea, you got to drink it and wait for the taste to reveal itself, feel it and you will ease into it. Like my friend Soon, he used to come and asked me about the goodness of one particular type of Chinese tea, I run out of words to describe, and often don't know what to say but only ask him to be patient and soon he will know. One day he came to my house and I wasn't in, so he made the tea himself and drink a few cups, afterwards he just left riding his bicycle slowly returning to his duty ( he owns a bicycle shop ), in that quiet and lonely ride he suddenly felt the wonder of the taste and the next day he came rushing to me to tell his new found knowledge, ending with buying a big carton of Chinese tea leaves. Same with classical music, keep silent and you will find the taste of it.

已经忘记为什么会买她的歌,那时还在听喀什声带的时候。那个卡带被我听到烂掉。爱上她有点伤风的声音,佩服她写歌的灵感,她是我在华人歌手其中所佩服的一位。

One of the most energetic song that I fall in love with. When you can live forever, you know everything and your knowledge is your power but the memories will be such a burden think no body can bare, that is why even tho we are forever living and we don't remember al of it help so much. Fredie mercury, one of the singer who has the power and Queen a band with rich harmonies and rock spirit.




smokie, my chilhood left over

When you were young, you get influence easily, and I got influence by my sister a lot. She's 8 year senior than me, those days she just love this song, use to jot down lyric while listening to the cassette over and over and word for word, and in the process burnt this song into my soul. when I grow up I go search for songs of smokie, one particular album I fall in love was..



Well the album got this song...






Surprise ! surprise! to me that is, The Beatle also sung this song, said it was written by Carol King.

One of the reason I love smokie was their harmonies, so rich..



罗大佑受老鹰乐队音响了吗?

Posted Posted by ts lim in Comments 1 comments

野百合也有春天,一首触动心弦的歌曲。因为这首歌我爱上潘越云,那时觉得她的唱法很有味道,有一种“痛”的感觉。夜深人静的时候听这首歌,想着不在身边的爱人,喔~痛的感觉。



听罗大佑的歌是受同学的影响,但是后来慢慢爱上的时候,觉得他的歌曲都是很有水准的,华人乐坛的佼佼者,不过我总是觉得他受老鹰乐队的影响,尤其“鹿港小镇”。。。

The song that bring back memories, actually not memories but memories of the feeling I had when I fall in love with this song years ago. Those lead guitar towards the end of the song, just mesmerizing with an addictive nature.

First love in jazz guitar

Posted Posted by ts lim in Comments 0 comments

It was 1982 that I bought this cassette, don't know what it was than, just want to hear some guitar music. At first I feel that it was noisy and unharmonized, but after some time I find it really enjoyable to listen to, I start falling in love with it. Paco de Lucia, Al Di Meola and John Mclaughlin play Mediterranean Sundance, splendid!



This one got cd already.



I love them together, but they are too great individually to stay together.

Rekindle my dream -Tommy Emmanuel

With this song, I fall in love with Tommy Emmanuel. I was at a book shop, when I over heard this song. Don't know who Tommy Emmanuel than, but I liked John McLaughlin, Al Demeola and Paco De Lucia, Mediterranean Sundance Friday Night in San Francisco. He remind me of them, an I got to have it, end up buying his cd that day.



He rekindle my dream of guitar playing. I wish, I hope that I can play like him. He gave guitar heir soul, reminds me that my guitar is still alive.



He reinvent guitar playing.

This is the real gas.






Ever seen this? crazy jam

安全地帶Anzenchitai

Posted Posted by ts lim in , Comments 0 comments

How could I left out Anzenchitai from Japanese pop music. They're not only jazz, they can rock, they're sentimental.most of their sentimental song will let you fall in love in an instant, but their jazz title you can repeatedly listen to it and find the more you play it the better it sound, that is the magic of Anzenchitai.





It's been such a long time, this song I think has been decades, still good.

With this song I fell in love with Alfee, but it was an acoustic version, I don't know they had this version, kind of old fashion. I like the acoustic version more, it had a kind of mystery like feel. Also another call lonesom city...



Another version! arrgh!



Finally! the best version I like, yahooo!



I really enjoy these guys. They're great!

闵惠芬Min Hui Fen, she perform with such feeling and emotion, but most important she's natural and smooth flowing. with only two strings, this instrument can express the most intense emotion, especially sad and tragic emotion.

I Fall in love with violin concertos

Posted Posted by ts lim in Comments 0 comments

First I fall in love with Tchaikovsky, his music always carry a romantic sense, even though most of his composition was sad and worrisome, but I love his Russian melodic taste. I love Itzhak Perlman, his performance is spotlessly perfect. Mostly I love violin concertos in classical music.



Compare with David Oistrakh, which you like best?

Most beautiful music I love

Posted Posted by ts lim in Comments 0 comments

Fall in love with her since I saw her on tv, singing Orinoco Flow. She is like a booming tree, keep giving beautiful flower like music. Heavenly music she gave to this world ethereal beauty.

香花一般美丽的音乐,她的音乐总围绕着浓浓的魔法式迷离一般的美。







Best Rock in Hock Kian (Chinese Dialect)

Posted Posted by ts lim in , Comments 0 comments

一点都不输给李寿全的摇滚歌手,虽然摇滚总免不了带有西洋的味道,而萧福德也没能够像崔健一样吸取摇滚的精神,注入中华的血液,但是萧福德已经是值得喝彩的华人摇滚歌手。唯一喜欢的福建摇滚歌手。

One of the very few, if not the only one who are able to adopt proper rock style and sing in Chinese hock kian dialect, I only wish to hear more from him, and wish that he will continue to develop and write more quality hock kian rock. All th best XIAO!

Fumbel into Kiroro

Once I was in a stationary cum book shop, and I overheard this song, played by the shop keeper over the sound system. It was years ago, that time the voice to me was so sweet, the song written so clean and the melody so beautiful. I cannot do anymore shopping, actually I wasn't shopping for anything, just casually stroll in with no particular intention. Listening to this song, totally capture my attention, and I can't help but ask the shop keeper about it, ended buying their album, and I don't understand any Japanese.




At home, I heard the album and think, this is yet another talented group for my favorite list, but still this is their best song ever. their other song cannot match.

Feel like old time again

Posted Posted by ts lim in Comments 0 comments

Just come across this group, dunno much about them, but nice to listen to some old style music.



I think as a group project, their song sound fine,




Wow! There is somethin' with this one, short but dunno why I keep replay it way more than couple of times, many times.

Once my all day and night was only bread

Posted Posted by ts lim in Comments 0 comments

I use to just listen to them, I wanted to listen to no other song only bread. They can play soft and they can rock, their harmony was sweet, their inspiration pure. Those was some lonely days that I fill it up with learning to play their song, singing if to myself, and feeling full of life.




If you could read my mind

Posted Posted by ts lim in Comments 0 comments

Long time ago, I heard this song in a folk song compilation cassette, and I just can't help but repeat and replay, and rewind again, it's the melody that capture my heart.




Another song I like, heard this when I was in primary school, this one hold more memories, "If you could read my mind" give me more joy of music.


I am not sad for mary, she's more full of life than ever

Posted Posted by ts lim in Comments 0 comments

Peter Paul And Mary, their first song that I fell in love was Early morning rain. It was a careless buy, when I picked up the cassette I don't know who they were. it was the time of cassette and I was buying just like treasure hunting in those day, no CD yet, and no internet, so I just buy to learn more of any music style that I could be of interest.

Their Harmony was perfect, simple guitar and voices, and the effect was the most beautiful music.






Only later that I found out, the song was written by Gordon Lightfoot,




Love the way she sing and her vioce

Posted Posted by ts lim in , Comments 0 comments

She has style, love this song, they (at you tube) was talking about this song writter, think he wrote the lyric, pass away, and were mourning over it. we human are very attached to death, what if we had reason to feel otherwise? we will be lifted to another level.




Let's hear from Abraham Hicks talk about death, and some perceptual comparison with sex and orgasm. If we accept her view we won't fear or mourn about death so much.








I just have to put this together with this death subject. let us learn more clearly about death.





Who doesn't want love from handsom and beautiful?

I love James Taylor because when I listen to him I have a sense of calmness. It was Handyman that I fell in love with the first time I heard James.

From Classical to Folk in love with Sinead O'Connor

Posted Posted by ts lim in , Comments 0 comments

- - d-axel.dk/sound/Pachelbel-kanon.mp3


Found at bee mp3 search engine

The only song I love from Ralph Mctell, Streets of London. Music sounds like classical song Canon by Pachelbel, or should I say the cord progression sounds like it.

Sinead O'Connor make it sound so quiet and peaceful, I was mesmerized instantly. She uses idea of Ravel Bolero, starting with simple guitar music, than added a kind of classical piano, than come the base, the percussion, the violin and keyboard. great mix, and still able to keep the quiet effect.


Maurice Ravel - Ravel: Bolero


Found at bee mp3 search engine

I love Sinead O'Connor, the passion in her voice, and the emotion. This is great, with all this mix, she still sounds like her own self.


Oh man i love this song

Posted Posted by ts lim in Comments 0 comments

I was a teenage boy when I heard this songs. went to my grandma's house and my uncle played this album, bridge over trouble water, think he brought back from uk or something. Those day when they play anything on that hi fi , it was so loud and this song burnt into my brain. Love it , it gave me those blissful feeling when I hear it. Because of this I love folk music all my life.


Jazz old beat of Lisa Ekdahl with Peter Nordahl Trio

Posted Posted by ts lim in Comments 0 comments


When she sings jazz, she sound so little girl, so cute, why ? when she sing her sweedish song, she sound more like older lady. I don't know. Maybe its the style of the song she sings, when she sing sweedish song it is more like pop folk style, and when she sing jazz style she sound so cute, I fall in love with her "Now or never." this song led me to want to listen more of her song.


Fall in love with Lisa Ekdahl

I was listening casually to my new sony mp3 player, until this song came up, and I can't help but to rewind three time. So good!
