THE GOSPEL OF MARY AND MAGDALENIC GNOSIS
The Hellenic approach to the soul. Maybe the Ancient people knew more than we know today?
The Lost Tomb of Jesus 8/10
, The Mystery continues. It is not for one to make a decision, it is for one to keep an open mind and learn, learn, learn. If you like mystery, what is wrong with having this be your mystery, right or wrong?
South To A Warmer Place
On Siriusly Sinatra, I heard Frank sing this. The song is without excitement for me, my husband agreed. We wondered why he bothered to sing it? The exercise in voice is not necessarily what the public wants. What makes an artist sing a song ? What is the decision making? In books, it is what is popular , it appeals to a group of self help, etc....In music, what makes artists want to sing this particular song, other than an exercise in voice...? What do you hear in this presentation that is appealing, I noted below more likes than dislikes. But, this is important for young artists. In my estimation this song is not worth the effort, but then what do I know...because the applause is polite.

December 1963(Oh What a Night!)-Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons-Lyrics
we rushed to the stores for this one. Best arrangement, what do you think?
Casinos - Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye (RARE clip)
I would get my paycheck and head for the record store, when these great songs where played on the radio!
Mel Carter - Hold Me Thrill Me (Best Quality)
another song that caused records to fly off the shelves, in the days when we had downtown record stores...
DON McLEAN: "SINCE I DON'T HAVE YOU" (1981)
a more recent recording...and very nice. See how the song can easily suit your voice.
The Skyliners - Since I Don´t Have You (Live 1974)
Teenagers in love, flocked to the record stores to buy this album. Hopefully a voice of today will bring this gem back!
Della Reese - Don't You Know? ("Puccini")
This was her song! Everything was right, the voice and the arrangement fit the words, and the mood of the song.
Slim Whitman - Indian Love Call
it isn't often that you can enjoy yodeling, but Slim Whitman was a master of singing with the yodel.
Slim Whitman,I remember you
I like the homespun feel of this and the upbeat tempo. Slow it down and its too soupy...this is when country was starting to be mainstream I think and this was one of the songs that brought country forward.
" I REMEMBER YOU " TONY BENNETT ARRANGED BY JOHNNY MANDEL
This is such a great song, it needs to be recorded it again. I have posted it by Frank Ifield, who had a monster hit with it, and also by Slim Whitman. Find the right arranger, who steps it up in tempo, and it could be a monster hit...once again.
Tell Me Why By The Four Aces
Oh! To be a teenager in love...we were the first teens in the 1950's ,thats when the word was coined!

ONCE IN A WHILE - THE CHIMES.wmv
A wonderful song from the past, and a group that had many hits in that time.
DINAH WASHINGTON - Sometimes I'm happy.wmv
Today on Siriusly Sinatra, perfect timing, perfect voice, perfect song for Dinah, I wanted to keep it playing over and over....it got me through aggrevation between a pesky fly, a slow computer and bill paying! Ha ha, so try it....Dinah! Buy her records, so she does not disappear.!

The Daily Tar Heel :: Music Review: William Michael Dillon
The Daily Tar Heel :: Music Review: William Michael Dillon More on the music of this man.
William Michael Dillon sings September Skies Live in Tallahassee
His new album is Songs of Freedom. We can never make up for the lost life time, but we can help him , so if you know any way to help his career with your generous spirit, we will all find some peace in this terrible injustice.
William Michael Dillon - DNA Exoneree
I met Willaim Michael Dillon on Fox and Friends this morning. My heart was sad for his loss of 27 plus years. I was amazed at the peace in the soul of this man, and in the souls surrounding him. It reminds me of my Mom telling me, when you can't do anything about something, don't think about it... Maybe that is what kept him and his family from being bitter. I, like everyone get a little too uppity and have to bring myself down in opinions. I am ashamed afterwards, and each time I feel ashamed I realize it is a lesson to keep from being too positive about your beliefs...because that is when you make mistakes in judgement. Strong opinions that have no room for others views, hate and angry rhetoric are not the way to peace. I want to keep being able to feel shame, so I can grow in my inner peace, hope you do to! Michael is now singing and I hope I can find his recording so you too, will think of him if you go to the record store, or buy on line.

Etta Jones, Through a long and sleepless night
Nice version, but can't find a version with a jazz beat....
"Through a Long and Sleepless Night" from Come to the Stable
Here is a version of the song, Dean Martin , and Etta James did their version. I think a jazz beat would be terrific for this song, Sinatra style.
Bobby Darin - Through a Long and Sleepless Night (1959)
what a weekend, so many souls left our earth, angels among them, and this love song came to me....I hope that someone will record it again, it was and is a wonderful song. I think it is time for this type of music to come back, to help us focus on the importance of love in the world.

Artie Shaw My Heart Stood Still
This is my all time favorite by Artie Shaw, and I love it with Dick Haymes singing...Maybe I will be spoiled by finding my favorites, and not have as much fun listening to Siriously! No way! Have fun today, be happy, pray for Rod Stewart today!
Artie Shaw- These Foolish Things
More Artie Shaw for today, then ...just listening to Siriously Sinatra 71, for the rest of the day....my favorite station on Sirious XM
SOFTLY AS IN A MORNING SUNRISE - Artie Shaw
I can't say anthing new, except, maybe you might like to read the book about Artie Shaw, available at Amazon.
" What's New?" Artie Shaw & Helen Forrest
Talk about swooning, I just loved Artie Shaw, and here is his rendition of a great song, that never quite made it, but it is a great song to bring back...
Nat King Cole, June Christy, Mel Torme - How High The Moon
How can anyone beat this! June Christy, was a jazz singer of all time!
Mel Tormé - Gone With the Wind
Another over and over song! I think it was a 45, which is still tucked away in my large record collection. Mel Torme! What more can I say!
Bunny Berigan - I Can't Get Started
First heard this song in Worcester, one of our friends, George, had a girlfriend who gave a party at her house...mistake...teens unsupervised...needless to say....Carol walked on the ceiling and you can guess how that happened! Loved Bunny Berrigan from that night...when I wanted to leave fast...
Rod Stewart - I Can't Get Started
Here is another prayer, that goes around the world for Rod! We love you Rod!
Rod Stewart - Rhythm of my heart [HQ]
Lets return the blessing to Rod Stewart, say a prayer for him now and each time we hear his great voice. Thanks Rod !
Ray Charles - Moon over Miami
Love, love, love this, by Ray Charles, could play it over and over. Miami, became a reality to us in the 50's when we had more cars , by then some of us kids had our own cars....and we could drive the 1,600 plus or minus miles from Framinghamm Mass, to Miami , Florida. What glamour on the beach! What worlds opened up to us!
Kay Starr - Wheel Of Fortune - 1952 - HQ Video
This was a great song for Kay Starr, just as Comes a long a love, both were made for her big voice!
Kay Starr - Comes A-Long A-Love
Jump back to the 50's with this upbeat song! Kay Starr, we heard her singing everywhere, the bowling alley, the ice cream stop and the car radios!
Then I'll Be Tired Of You - John Coltrane
Can't help but think of us as all having our own inner rhythm through life, when I hear different versions of the same songs. Some of the songs reach down deep to the level of the forgotten stars we come from, and some don't touch the surface. We all have songs that are written for us, Ella was an exceptional woman, you have to look hard to find something you don't think is great by her.

Eminem- Cold Wind Blows Instrumental
If it wasn't Eminem, would it be ? How about a music festival with instrumentals from Eminem?
George Michael - White Light (Lyric Video)
Will George Michael lead us into the metaphysical world, to appreciate life, good and bad?
Frank Sinatra - Oh What It Seemed To Be -
Oh, what it seemed to be....the times we had when the world was growing into the future, we now inhabit.
Kitty Wells - Making Believe
Kitty Wells, who helped bring country music to the mainstream, in the fabulous 50's. Did you know the America we have lived in for the last 70 years was a result of our hard fought battle of the 2nd World War....as I complete my second book , Small Town America, Framingham, I came to the realization that the world changed right after the war, in the United States. We knew it , but being young were not completely aware. We were that part of the world never bombed and we went into high gear, with the Marshall Plan to help the world recover, while inventions in medicine ( that we had to develop to help our soldiers), plastics to replace scarce good, etc., fantastic new cars, and consumer products made life easier for all people. We became prosperous as a nation and as individuals. My Dad started a business of his own, we were so proud, he was an Italian immigrant , who worked hard and reached for the stars. Oh, what a thrill it was, to be able to try! There were lots of Italians in Framingham, and they were starting businesses or had already established businesses and some did reach the moon, like Bonfiglio Perini. It was a magnificent time in our lives, and hopefully we will not lose that sense of opportunity for all. Is it fading away?
SLIM WHITMAN - ROSE MARIE (U.K.No1 1955)
This was Nelson Eddy's song, but it is time for Slim Whitman...country came into mainstream America around the early 1950's to those of us that loved all genres of music. Kitty Wells had a big hit then for country music.
I'll See You Again Lyrics Westlife
Everyone has someone in their life, that is an angel on earth. My uncle Peter married such a person. She had 12 children, then she felt the need to go back to college for a Master's Degree. It was not needed, because by then she was truly a Master of life. Her name is Rosemarie, she is getting ready to make the transition to another dimension, and when she leaves, all who know her will miss one of the most valuable souls we have ever encountered here on earth. She did not preach to us, she just exhibited a deep peace in her soul and in her sharing of life with us. I for one was influenced by her magnificence, her love of God, and her ability to handle the life she chose, raising 12 children with her husband, and going forward into a life of sharing her angelic being with all around her. She was always there for those who were suffering and in need. My heart is lonely knowing that not only our family, but the world is about to lose this precious Rosemarie. We have learned from her, and though we may never attain her inner peace, we can be grateful for what she illuminated about life to us, her family. Rosemarie, we love you!

Los Indios Tabajaras - As Time Goes By
Signing off for now, with the lovely sound of the magic guitars
CONNIE FRANCIS: "You're Breaking My Heart" (1965)
I like to mention Connie Francis when I talk about Jerry Vale, she had the same quality in her voice. Longing for the next stanza, is what creates the mystery of success...
Jerry Vale - You're Breaking My Heart (1963)
Remembering the great Jerry Vale, his music once surrounded us in our daily acitivites
Jerry Vale - I have but one heart ('O marenariello)
A crooner for sure, and this was another major hit for Jerry Vale
Jerry Vale "I Hear a Rhapsody" 1968
Here it is, the song belonged to Jerry Vale...an achingly beautiful voice in this number
Sugaa Shack
Okay, someone new....I was looking for Sugar Shack, a great song of the past, and discovered this...worth listening to nice rhythm, good voices
Ella Mae Morse - The Blacksmith Blues (1952)
Shoo Shoo baby, was a great, but this was her biggest hit.. we loved to dance to it
♥♥ "I Hear a Rhapsody" ♫ Steve Lawrence
This might be nice to hear from our today star, Michael Buble...it fits his voice, I think. Steve Lawrence might not have had the hit. I am trying to think if it was Vaughn Munroe's song...
Nat King Cole Time Out For Tears
This is appropriate, when I think of what it was like during the war. Dinah Washington had the major hit for this song, so I will post it for you
Jo Stafford I'll Walk Alone
Listen to her voice, it just crys for the next stanza...she draws you to it....A major hit a song of longing from the 2nd World War...a time of tears, and sacrifice all over the world.
PATSY CLINE - You Belong To Me
Listen to the quality of her voice! She had great hits too as most of us know , but Jo Stafford won out on this song!
