| calypsus_1 | Posted: Jun 08, 2011 - 20:54 Judy Garland - You'll Never Walk Alone, London Sessions (1960) Recorded at EMI Studios in London, 3 August, 1960. "There are many versions of this great song & I am just wondering if this is the most moving. Judy certainly had a magic voice, suited to this wonderful song. Would be interesting to hear other opinions." Teddyb1939 |
| calypsus_1 | Posted: May 13, 2010 - 00:15 Eric Clapton - "Somewhere over the rainbow" Live " "Over the Rainbow" (often referred to as "Somewhere over the Rainbow") is a classic ballad song with music by Harold Arlen and lyrics by E.Y. Harburg. It was written for the movie The Wizard of Oz, and was sung by Judy Garland in that movie. Over time it would become Garland's signature song. " "Mr. Clapton, how can I express it? I simply think you can play and "play" with whatever you want to. This is simply beautiful to hear and keep it. You're older and better, with a family, lots of girls, and really, better than never. I wish you the best recovery and a wonderful and peaceful life. |

Keep the scratches. I wouldn't want this played a lot but every 5 years and played by surprise is nice. Thx, Bill. |
| canadianbug (nation's capital) | Posted: Jan 04, 2007 - 11:16 yah that was the longest i've ever heard him go on, ever! fun. |
| meydele (By the sea) | Posted: Jan 04, 2007 - 11:15 Bill, your little spiel about Judy was hilarious! You should add a few more little talks here and there. |
| jeepstir (on the Potomac) | Posted: Jan 04, 2007 - 11:15 Sorry folks, but this sucks in the RP context. Not totally unlike Bill, but again, I think (IMHO) that we could all live without this.
Definite 1 for context on this station. Maybe a 3 for song itself. The musical diversity and spontaneity of this station is what makes it so great. Maybe Clearchannel is more to your liking. |
| klatu | Posted: Jan 04, 2007 - 11:14 A totally unexpected and wonderful surprise! Makes it a little easier to deal with all the snow out here in the Aleutian Islands. Thanks Bill! |
| UltraNurd (Boston, MA) | Posted: Jan 04, 2007 - 11:13 I think PBS used to air it every Christmas, at least in the Twin Cities. |
| celadonstone (Charleston, SC) | Posted: Jan 04, 2007 - 11:13 Yeah it is a surprise here--I listen to really old-fashioned music all the time (outside of RP). Judy had an unfortunate end. Props to Jane Monheit for doing a lovely job on this song in the modern era. A clip of her version was used for that movie "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow" |
| davin (Victoria, British Columbia) | Posted: Jan 04, 2007 - 11:11 As much as I respect this song, I don't think its all that great as a song goes by itself. It's just got good placement in the history and ultimate nostalgia of popular music, so it's almost as if by default that is has a place in our hearts. I almost just lost all respect for it just by thinking about it this much. But.. what can you do? |

This version is especially sad.... wavering voice & scratches. |

| stub30 (East Wenatchee) | Posted: Jan 04, 2007 - 11:06 This is exactly why I love listening to RadioParadise, you never know what you're going to hear. Keep up the great work Bill. |
| Imkirok (Minneapolis, MN) | Posted: Jan 04, 2007 - 11:06 Will whoever stole the ruby red slippers from the Judy Garland museum in Minnesota please return them? Thank you. |
