My kids are excellent cellists, (one is at university on a cello scholarship.) I love this transposed for Cello!

Ooh, I love the cello. Probably my favorite instrument. Just going to go searching for cello concertos now.

I don't care if it makes me basic, the Bach Cello Suites will always be my favorite. Here's Yo-Yo Ma playing suite #1

There could be all out war at my front doorstep, but if I heard this song, a wave of chill would overtake me!

Dancing in the Moonlight-King Harvest

Basic just means liked by a lot of people, often for a long time. Nothing wrong with that. Folks be too snobby.

[SalaciousMonkey22]

One of the greatest artist l/song pairings of all time. Makes me more melancholy than calm, but I can see it.

 

[PassionatePanther]

Day 14: A song that calms you down

I don't really use music for this purpose but I think I have a feel for the vibe they are looking for. So the first song that came to mind was the absolutely brilliant ballad Reconsider Me by Warren Zevon (which I won't post today because thr revolt is still in the planning stages).
I absolutely love this band and I have been neglecting them both in my personal listening and here. This seemed appropriate:

Day 13: A song you heard on the radio

I have a very distinct memory of hearing this song for the first time. It was just my usual commute home from work, but it came on Alt Nation (Sirius XM) and completely captured my attention.

Lorde - Royals

Day 14: A song that calms you down

Van Morrison - Into the Mystic

Angelica! You have incredible taste. I’m always on the lookout for your shares. Both fabulous songs. Royals is somewhat of a theme song for me and Into the Mystic it just such a beautiful one. Crushed it again

 

[morelikeasong]

I didn’t even think to go classical, dare I Bogey and do a double today?

No, you don’t dare.

 

[morelikeasong]

This song is so powerful, you know he isn’t just rapping this, he really lives it
Trigger warning to anyone who might need it.

Really powerful song and thank you for offering the trigger warning

 

[RosewoodTulip]

Teardrop - Massive Attack
