| I have thought of this... |
Also...
I'm not especially musically inclined... never played an instrument (well, piano for 2 months in elementary school), don't have an 'ear' for it, and definitely can't hold a tune.
But 'some' music I find especially haunting like Pentatonix' "Hallelujah" or "Mary Did You Know?". Both of these songs mesmerize me. Don't know if it's the words, the tune, or the voices.
You're probably familiar with both of these, but I thought I'd try to link up the videos so you could hear them here. However, my technical ability isn't so great... and I'm having trouble doing this. Bear with me.
Pentatonix "Hallelujah"
Pentatonix "Mary Did You Know?"
I think I did it. Enjoy!
I know both pieces, but had never heard of Pentatonix before. Thanks for the links!
ReplyDeleteNeat quote, though I would say that sleep is pretty important too. LOL.
Yes, sleep is very important. But sometimes I wake between 3 and 6 and need a cup of tea. Usually I sit with the cats on the floor by the Aga, drink my tea, and organize my thoughts. Since we go to bed at 10 and get up at 8, the few minutes occasionally alone with my thoughts isn't such a bad thing.
Deletethey sound lovely but no, didn't get mesmerised by it, it's a personal thing & music affects people differently; me, i'm an Elvis fan, now there's a voice that could captivate an audience!
ReplyDeletehave a merry christmas & a happy & safe new year
thanx for sharing
I agree that music affects people differently... and I too was an Elvis fan... even then, none of the others (Beetles, etc.) affected me like Elvis did. Perhaps Pentatonix is my adult Elvis.
DeleteNicely done and I had never thought of that insomnia clue...maybe, just maybe.
ReplyDeleteSomething to think about...
DeleteYes, you did. Congratulations on becoming more technologically proficient! And Merry Christmas to you and all your furry family and others! :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks, DJan. It is kind of thrilling when I accomplish something new... even something as insignificant as posting a video. Small steps, right?
DeleteI will try to put my late awake time to better advantage.
ReplyDeleteYa did good on the links. I had never heard Pentatonix before and they are delightful. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it, Patti.
DeleteLike you, I have little to no musical talent, but I do enjoy music. Thanks for the links!
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome, Tom. I've often said that if I had a choice of some ability in another life, I would like to be able to sing... (or at least carry a tune).
