Beautiful songs/singing to lighten your day

Appropriate for Easter ... I’ve just found a link to the entire show of Jesus Christ Superstar!!

Only up for 2 days ..... so check it out now!

it has been ‘modernised’ a bit, but the music is the same ..... so I’ve just put it on in the background rather than watching it ‘as such’!

I saw it live back in Sydney in about 1970 .... fantastic songs!  Jon English played Judas.

How amazing that you've been watching that, @Sister  - I have been too, just today!! 

It is one song that I want to get my group doing this year (as some of our group are also boot skooters & can do the 'dance' as well!!)

This made me smile to watch - the Bull sisters just look like they're having great fun.

I am  not familiar with that song that Satchmo did, @iserbrown - but we just did "What a Wonderful World'' in our last Nursing Home gigs before the 'shut down'!

At my church boarding school (from age 7 - 17) I was raised on the Classics ...... and when they did this "Hooked on Classics" in the 70s - a huge medley of classical songs merged into one ..... I just LOVED IT!

They 'started' as normal - but then the drum beat came in & WOW! It knocked my socks off!!  I still love it - even mixing it with modern stuff as well - but it all worked so well!

Awesome that you are submitting to the Couch Choir - you never know your luck, yes a helluva lot of entries but you are in there!

Best wishes to you

I come from a large family and this song is what we played as part of Dad's photo montage

It will be interesting what they unload form the black box.
And yes that's how the choir worked and there were also 3 parts you could do , with over 6000 videos I'll be lucky to make it !

Well done @poodlejules - I hope you see yourself in the next video!!  So you had to record yourself (listening to them playing it) and send it in & all the videos were then syncronised & stitched into one video!!  AMAZING patience on behalf of the person putting it all together!!!

Yes, I saw that pic - and thought HOW IRRESPONSIBLE of them - considering their previous boat load of passengers had sick people on it & yet they took on a new load of passengers the same day the others were offloaded in early March!  NO WAY was that ship cleaned at ALL - hence the massive infections - still continuing!  :(  grrrr  Don't get me started!!

Yes, @arpie I submitted my bit to the choir but don't know if I'll get on it or not :wink: I thought of you and your uke when the news shot to a video of ladies learning to play them on the Ruby Princess , glad you're safe at home using zoom. Thanks for the YouTube link! Happy Easter!

Recently I stumbled upon a lovely version of "I Am, We Are, You Are Australian" sung in Yaruwu by the children of Broome.

Short clip but delightful and in these trying times of social isolation reminds us that we are in this "All Together."

Unfortunately I still haven't mastered the skill of inserting music files, so you will have to do it the long way by Googling Youtube "Iam - Yaruwu".
