Music in recovery
Nic:
Let's not forget anything and everything ever composed by DeBussy! Ah..you can really see the fields of tallgrass swaying in the wind..
Ah music! Apparently my biological mother taught "voice" ( Solfege in French). Although I have little info on her, music has always been a big part of my life..especially singing. Am I destined to meet her one day, I swear I can feel it when she's thinking of me.

Absolutely, Nic! Anything composed by DeBussy really hits the spot. And according to Art of Noise (on their album, The Seduction of Claude DeBussy) "he preferred cats to people." That tells ya something right there. 8)
Lyrical songs which I am thinking of now:
>Marvin Gaye (What's Going On, I Want You....)
>anything by Neil Young
>Gill Scott Heron (geared towards Civil Rights Movement which is certainly relevant AND what a voice!!! "Peace Go With You, Brother.")
That is all I can think of now.
Of course, selected Beatles post 1965.

The Swingle Singers singing (yes SINGING) the 1812 Overture. :lol: You've never heard anything so uplifting, amazing and amusing! http://www.swinglesingers.com/ Who else can sing the noise of cannon firing and firworks going off and make beautiful music at the same time??! It gives great energy.
And a new British 'Opera Band' - Amici Forever. Very special.
http://www.amiciforever.com/ O Come all ye faithful in Latin. Wow! (Home page and music takes forever to download)
Pretty much anything by Eric Satie - usually an amusing 'sting in the tail' (like the ending that never ends!).
Nimrod - Enigma Variations. Stirring stuff.
Anything really to make me smile and make me sit up straight! Brings a smile to my face and dignity to my soul.
