Saturday Night Special
Sat, 09/11/10 8:49 PM
( permalink)
A friend sent me this short video and it is great. It is perfect for sitting back and relaxing and thinking of beauty and love and those we have lost on a Saturday Evening alone. The waterworks in the background must have taken a lot of work to sync with the music. The song sung by Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman "Time To Say Goodbye" will always be the most beautiful I have every heard--------It was the last thing my wife gave me before I lost her 10 years ago. We both knew it was the end and the words were perfect-----Time to Say Goodbye.

CTF see what you could do with your parking lot if you had a zillion dollars of oil money and two pretty good singers. Mac the Tac --- yes I thought so too. Love that song and the dancing waters. Have youse guys ever been to Longwood Gardens (between Philly and Lancaster) to see the fountain display at night? Lovely, but small potatoes next to Dubai. The duPonts were only millionaires.

Julio Iglesias, takes care of it for me.

CTF is displaying his pulled pork with Julio and Greymo ----- I gotta stop drinking in the afternoon. Have to settle for mornings only. It's funny how your mind works-------just play the first note of Time To Say Goodbye----nothing more and I will recognize it. That one note could be played 10,000 times a day and it would mean nothing to anyone-----but that orchester hits one note and I am like a watchdog----my ears perk up and I know I will be happy for 3 minutes, and maybe the rest of the day..

Sorry Dawn but I have no idea what RG?Roam,Raven and similar is, was or will be. I was driving along, minding my own business, when I first heard "Time To Say Goodbye" ----there was a Towers record store nearby and i drove in----went to the Classical dept and told the clerk---I just heard a recording of a song whose name i don't know----it was performed by a tenor and soprano singing a duet.------He looked up at the ceiling for a second, walked me over to the exact C/D I was looking for----------Took it home played it until it was worn out. My wife loved it.

Ah, Dawn comes up like thunder out of South Florida across Tampa Bay. Asking for help is not allowed---this is a one on one game. Michael is not versed in every art-----only the ones he says he is versed in. Come to think of it that is almost every one.
