Songs are like pictures. They leave exacting emotions in the brain. Where you were when you heard it...what it meant to you when you first heard it. That sort of thing.
I have no absolute favorite performers. I am addicted to songs, regardless of who performs them. Some are ancient. Very few are modern. Still, I listen to the vocals, and even more to the background. Sometimes, just the emotions evoked by the songs move me.
Here is my list of somewhat perfect songs:
"Tradition" from Fiddler on the Roof.
"Evergreen" from A Star is Born.
"The Great Mandella" from Peter, Paul, and Mary.
"The Hallelujah Chorus" from Handel's Messiah.
"Oh Happy Day" from the Edwin Hawkins Singers.
"Imagine" from John Lennon.
"The Beast's Song" from the Broadway version of Beauty and the Beast. "If I Can't Love Her".
I can't stay up long enough to write more. Listen to the songs and listen to the background music. Such drama!
I guess I need to go to bed. I can get carried away with this...
