Feels Like Home

We are all surrounded by noise pollution making one hate the environment, the people, the busses, traffic the list goes on… But when I play this track with my in-ear IPOD , I can only listen to the details of the music… everything seems so different all out of the sudden… Makes me feel that everyone has a sense of purpose everyday, every morning… Every SUNSHINE! Everything seems to be in motion to do good…

Everyone, everything has a purpose every sunshine, in motion… Trees starts to generate oxygen.. birds start chirping, cars / buses in motion…by elvin

It’s beautiful!

Cheers!

Northern Lights by Lux

October 27th, 2005

Northern Lights… by Lux (Café Del Mar , Collection)

Introduction:-

Five years in the making Northern Lights is laid-back ‘Ibizian’ (or just plain relaxed) . Northern Lights is a serious musical piece and takes in areas from downtempo, blissful, beatless tracks to laid-back house and lazy drum & bass.

Fantastic & Great Music!!! It’s the Number One Hit (No. 1) on my Ipod, listening to it everyday. It has a calming & relaxing effect.. Makes one mind wonder probably into the deep space of Northern Lights…. It brings a great sense of hope and achievement in life….

Madonna, the queen of modern Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera , Beyonce. Sexy slick pop singer… With her ever popular cone shape bra in her concerts and MTV.

It’s a fantastic track.… With my Ipod and in-ear headphones, one can hear the details of this music. Combination of universal space, emptiness, hope and sadness in this world.

Opera, Love or just hate it…

October 24th, 2005

This is my first official blog from all the greatest collection of music. Opera, some people love it , some just hated it.

Today, I have added one of my favourite artist.. Andrea Bocelli. He is my favourite modern opera singer… One of the greatest track “Con Te Partiro” click below “play” button to listen to this greatest hit.

Con Te Partiro

You can purchase the CD here Romanza

Even though I do not understand the lyrics and the real meaning of his music, I do believe Music is the Flower of culture and language of the world…

With my eyes closed, the music brings me calm, hope and forceful power to my life. It reminds me that no matter how weak I am , I can do GREAT THINGS in this world, there is simply no limit on what one can do….

Life, is simply Beautiful……

From Andrea Bocelli’s Forum discussion :-

Hi, Elvin, I am glad you found the great and soothing voice of Andrea Bocelli. As to music, Kurt Vonnegot said that the greatest proof for the existence of God is music. It is an energy that transcends cultures; requires no translation and unites people like no other art form. by Wilma

Elvin, you made great blog… congratulations!
I agree with you that music is a flower of culture, ’cause music can move humans’ heart. In Poland we’ve got sentence ” Go there, where you hear the music, there are good hearts , believe me bad people never sing” .

In Polish :

” Gdzie słyszysz śpiew, tam idź!
Tam dobre serca mają
Źli ludzie wierzaj mi, ci nigdy nie śpiewają…”

by Ewa, Poland

Cheers!
