What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my library (vinyl)



Strange what will catch on with the public. This soundtrack to the film did surprisingly well, outgrossing the film. Think I tried to watch the film once, but couldn't make it through it. It's about a bird for christs sake. No dialogue. Just a friggin bird going through his daily routine. Get up, fly around, go fishin'. I did read the book that the film was adapted from. If you can call it a book. Think it took about a half hour to read. Bird was outcast by the flock and sets out to determine his possibilities at the art of flying. Now before you all go thinking I'm insensitive to the plight of the bird, quite the contrary. Gotta be a bummer, stranded at sea, foraging for food, struggling for survival. Just seems kind of presumptious for humans to pretend to know what animals are thinking. I mean what's next, Jeremy Nottingham Inchworm? Neil won a Grammy and a Golden Globe for his efforts. An excellent song on the album, of Be, which made it to #34 on the charts, with the album at an amazing #2. Only a few songs with any vocals and those are repeated, to fill it up I guess.

I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Flight Of The Gull

Best Track - Be

Lost
On a painted sky
Where the clouds are hung
For the poet's eye
You may find him
If you may find him

There
On a distant shore
By the wings of dreams
Through an open door
You may know him
If you may

Be
As a page that aches for a word
Which speaks on a theme that is timeless
And the one God will make for your day
Sing
As a song in search of a voice that is silent
And the Sun God will make for your way

And we dance
To a whispered voice
Overheard by the soul
Undertook by the heart
And you may know it
If you may know it

While the sand
Would become the stone
Which begat the spark
Turned to living bone
Holy, Holy
Sanctus, sanctus

Be
As a page that aches for a word
Which speaks on a theme that is timeless
And the one God will make for your day
Sing
As a song in search of a voice that is silent
And the one God will make for your way
