YouTube - Rush - Vital Signs [Music Video]

"Vital Signs"

Unstable condition
A symptom of life
In mental and environmental change
Atmospheric disturbance
The feverish flux
Of human interface and interchange

The impulse is pure
Sometimes our circuits get shorted
By external interference
Signals get crossed
And the balance distorted
By internal incoherence

A tired mind become a shape-shifter
Everybody need a mood lifter
Everybody need reverse polarity
Everybody got mixed feelings
About the function and the form
Everybody got to deviate from the norm

An ounce of perception
A pound of obscure
Process information at half speed
Pause, rewind, replay
Warm memory chip
Random sample, hold the one you need

Leave out the fiction
The fact is, this friction
Will only be worn by persistence
Leave out conditions
Courageous convictions
Will drag the dream into existence

A tired mind become a shape-shifter
Everybody need a soft filter
Everybody need reverse polarity
Everybody got mixed feelings
About the function and the form
Everybody got to elevate from the norm...

Oh, no... I'm not falling for that. Did you really think anyone here would click the play button on one of those and risk being educated? :panic:

Yes! And my plan would have worked if it weren't for you meddling kids! (Oh wait, different nostalgic cartoon, sorry.)

So? It's what you're listening to!

Me, at the moment I'm listening to the music of "South Pacific." Next comes "The Pajama Game."

Ooh! And that reminds me...

When I was a kid, I can remember my dad playing LPs of the soundtrack from "Victory at Sea." Although I was too young to remember the series, and I don't even know if it was on after I was born, I remember fondly that he played those records, and I listened raptly as he described the music as it pertained to the actual drama of war. He made the music come alive in my mind. He did that with every album from every genre we listened to.

I now have those "V At S" albums. Unfortunately I do not have a turntable and buying one simply isn't in the budget while I try to recover finanacially from being on medical leave this past year. But I'm keeping my eyes open for a used turntable... and when I find it, I'll play the entire soundtrack from "Victory at Sea," and my dad will live in my heart in yet one more way.

Time to add some culture, while apologizing to those who despise opera.

However, because I'm classy, I give you a rendition of "Habenera" from Bizet's "Carmen."




YouTube - Habanera

Or perhaps you'd prefer "Ode To Joy?"
