Victor,

Yeah, but only had a Scooter for about 6 months....  then i got a car, bikes are just too darn cold and wet for UK winters!! haha!! I was one of the very few students at Uni that was driving about in my own car, needless to say, i done pretty good with the female fraternity of students .... best move i ever made!! Had a bog standard 998cc Anglia (sloping rear window one) 4 years later as i graduated, i bought a brand new Escort 1300E. I think the insurance cost more than the car. ...haha!! Did my Sandwich degree under the sponsorship of Ford's (FOMOCO) so i got a 25% employee discount ...Rock on brother  haha!!

We may have been on different sides of the Mod/Rocker fence, but it seems we had some similar tastes in the music of those days....

David...

Mike,

Yes, ... music has a way of bringing back memories of people places and things. They can bring back real vivid memories of those times too. I often hear a track on the radio, that i haven't heard for years, but my mind can go back to a place and time that i associated with that piece of music as if it were yesterday ....amazing really when you stop and think about it.....  Don't switch off from any music you once liked, it may not bring the same enjoyment it once had, ....but be honest you still like listening to it, ...well it is still a small part of your life!!

I am a romantic at heart :heart: so powerfull ballads are where I am at. I listened big time to Seal's Love Divne when first writing to my wife. Hearing the thunder and rain at the intro of the song and our letters talking about Joy and Sorrow, allowed me to use the analogy of even a flower needing rain in order to grow.

Don't just talk about what you like ....POST IT, let others listen to what turns you on (musicaly of course  haha!!) There's been a few postings of music here that broadened my collection of music on my computer downloads. ...haha!!

If you want some nice romantic music playing in the background, on those nights where Love is in the air. You cannot make a better choice, than that music being provided by' 'Sade''.  I've chosen just two of the many that i regulary play,  look around for the many more that are available..... Who said you don't like Jazz??



Sade - No Ordinary Love

Smooth Operator - Sade

Not going to show my age but first record I bought was a big black breakable one which played at 78 rpm
I think the cylinders had just gone by then!!!

Seriously - I am into Female Gospel Music. I like it and not just because it is the reason that I can live here in Zhuhai.  There are some damn good singers who sell masses of records but you never hear of them.  'Alabaster Box',  'I Promise' and 'What about the Children'

But without the internet and Gospel Music i would be far away from here drinking my cocoa,tugging on my slippers and wondering if there was going to be any talent,with their own teeth, at the golden oldies lunchtime club the next day.

Instead of that I am having to SUFFER very nice warm weather in really nice accommodation, have to put up with a maid who cannot do enough for me and a young girl friend who seems to think the sun shines out of my ---- and who dotes on me hand and foot.  

Its a hard life!!!

Willy,

Can you post what you consider is your favourites , just 2 or 3 will be fine. Easier then to look around your website.

Sorry David - I had hunted on youtube for the original released video but could not find it so I did not creat a link to it. http://video.search.yahoo.com/video/play?p=seal+love+divine&ei=UTF-8&fr=yfp-t-150&tnr=21&vid=0001126188079 is a site I found that plays the original video.
This song thou chessy has great emotional meaning for me. It is a powerful ballad. In the early morning of November 1st, 2001 I was driving to my mom's house. The sun was just breaking through the clouds and this song played from my radio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rn2HIBcirqM

I was going to see my mother because i had recieved the news that my dad had just died.
