Truly beautiful. So very well performed. 

My great grandmother's first husband died in the Civil War. A recruit from central  Iowa, leaving her with two little boys. She sold that farm, moved up to Southern Minnesota near her brother, and homesteaded 80 acres. 

The message in this music is haunting, and so very moving.

O the horrors of war. Truly it may be considered the most cruel and awful scourge which can befall a nation. Heaven grant there may be an end soon. (Samuel D. Lougheed letter to his wife Jane "Jennie" Lougheed, October 7, 1862)

thank you.

Today is National Rock n Roll day, so, here's one from Buddy Holly.

I used to live a few miles from Clear Lake, and the venue for his last concert, the Surf ballroom. The Surf is still open. Its partner facility in Austin (same owner) was my parents' fave weekend spot,  and mine, when I was young , with family and friends. The Terp.

Buddy Holly was an inspiration to many. Gone too soon, leaving Clear Lake.

And, on the same flight was this huge talent.

We all know this song. It was his version of a folk song, ticked up to rock n Roll.

On our July 2017 cross-country trips to take our daughter to college in Seattle, we found the crash site, and then went to Clear Lake and into the Surf Ballroom.

Of course we listened to:

On the drive back to North Carolina from Wyoming I heard the song below and had never heard of this lady.

Ribs on the smoker. Last things to wrap up before Labor day cookout, listening to Michael Buble channel on Pandora. One of my favorite Andrea Bocelli duets just played: (music starts about a minute in)

I listen to Joey and Rory often. Joey was from southern Indiana. Funny you mention this song as I created a Pandora channel after this track just a couple days ago. Their story and the amazing fulfillment of some of their songs can give you chills. BTW, as you probably know by now, the song that plays after the video you attached came true a little over a year after she and Rory produced the video. They had no idea what the song portended for them. The best always leave us early. 😔

Eva Cassidy plays a lot in our home. Our Norwegian cousins introduced us tp her, many years ago.

On the way to music bingo tonight, we listened to a favorite. 

Andrea Bocelli and Cristina Aguilera,  Somos Novios. (We are lovers, for those who don't speak Spanish.)

On the way home, another favorite of mine. Older, but still a fave. Donny Hathaway and the inimitable Roberta Flack. I'll never forget the joy of that concert.

Eva was one of my favorites, and gone far too soon.  Her cover of Fields of Gold is so great.

Michelle Kwan skated to Eva's Fields of Gold in exhibition a number of years before I actually found out just who was singing that song.  I was seated at a dinner party one night when I heard the song playing softly in the background and YELLED, "that's it!".  The other guests must of thought that I was either drunk or crazy.

You're correct - "gone far too soon".
