Musical Friday: Fragile

Hi boys and girls. For Musical Friday today, one of my favorite Sting songs, Fragile.

Musical Friday -- The Imperial March

It's pretty dark and raining outside, and I just got a paycheck deposited in my checking account that's half it's usual amount because of the unpaid time off we had to take. So I'm choosing a Musical Friday theme to suit. One of my favorite all-time classical-music / movie-music style songs, The Imperial March (Darth vader's theme) from Star Wars, by John Williams:

Musical Friday, Carla / Dale Wedding

My church friends Carla and Dale (pictured above) are getting married tonight at church during our usual Friday night service. They've asked us to do our normal music service, and have requested two songs they like for their wedding, You Won't Relent (by Misti Edwards), and Majesty (by Delirious).

In honor of their wedding, I give you today's Musical Friday offering, the "You Sexy Thing" scene from one of my all-time favorite movies, The Full Monty. Key piece of advice: Remove Cigarette, THEN Shirt. Another all-time favorite quote where Dave says, "Anti-wrinkle cream there may be ... anti-fat-bastard cream? there is none!"

Musical Friday

One of my favorite things to do is put on Chris Tomlin's "Hello Love" CD while I'm riding in the car with my daughter Lauren. The first cut is "Sing Sing Sing". Lauren sings along with the song really loudly and is pretty cute. Song here:



Here's another version, done live at a concert. They do the melody slightly differently. Very cool part a little after the 3:00 mark where the band stops and lets congregation sing, then comes back in big.

Musical Friday, Delirious Solid Rock

See below for a new song our band is working on for our church, Delirious' Solid Rock. We're trying to get Wes, our bass player, to dress and bop his head like Delirious' bassist (see 2:00 point in video). No luck yet.



I wonder if I put on some horn-rimmed glasses if I'd look like Delirious' keyboard player...
