“Yuri Gagarin”
by Zia
http://ziaspace.com/ZIA/mp3s/YuriGagarin.mp3

Lyrics:

The chimes rang out from Kremlin’s Tower, ushering a new day
The 12th of April ‘61, man ventured into space

Yuri Gagarin, you’ll be our man tonight, at the World Space Party

From a schoolboy out in the pasture, to a pilot protecting the borders
Days of war and misery, had liberated Yuri
The closeness of the continents, essential unity of all humans
What wonderful soil this would be, in which peace and friendship could seed

Yuri Gagarin, you’ll be our man tonight, at the World Space Party
Yuri Gagarin, you’ll be our man tonight, at the World Space Party

Dear friends, compatriots, and people of all continents
In a few minutes a mighty ship will carry me into the distance
What can I say to you in these last moments?
[At this moment] my life seems so condensed into one wonderful moment
To be the first to enter the cosmos, [to] engage, single handed
[In] an unprecedented duel with nature. Could one ask for anything more?

Yuri Gagarin, you’ll be our man tonight, at the World Space Party
Yuri Gagarin, you’ll be our man tonight, at the World Space Party

Crazy Arthur Brown...excellent Pookie... maybe not the best Fire! song but the earliest one I can remember.

[LonePalm]

Interesting. I have always understood that he was referring to his home town, Chapel Hill, and UNC which is located there.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

No sweat. Don't let SweetiePalm catch you doing too much of that. ;-)

what is a syncopator?

A man once went bar hopping and had a few drinks too many. Passing a music store on the way home, he saw the word "syncopation" in the window, which gave him an idea as to how to explain his tipsy condition to his wife.

Sure enough, when he got home, his wife asked him about his condition, and he explained, "I'm not feeling well. I've got syncopation." Then he went to bed.

Noting his condition, the wife was worried that syncopation must be a horrible disease, so she decided to look it up in the dictionary, which stated as follows--"syncopation: a staggered movement from bar to bar."

I think Morgana’s favorite musical had a song about “fire”

I also think the Hunchback of Notre Dame, Disney, had a song called “Heaven’s Light/Hellfire”

New Country Corn Flakes! New Country Corn Flakes!

Thanks for reminding me of that one. They're not the only ones to borrow the melody of "The Fire Song." A Communist balladeer also used it for his notorious "patriotic" opus:

This Land--Woody Guthrie (1951)

The doormats are still wet, as there has not been enough sunshine to dry anything out.

Lots of lessons today and tomorrow.

ABBA, Kisses of Fire: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2d69hh7hwE

[JohnnyP]

It’s a lip sync performance, but at 2:37 Agnetha holds a note for ten seconds.

Kisses of Fire:

Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I’m at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a landslide of emotions
I’ve had my share of love affairs and they were nothing compared to this
Oh, I’m riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
Kisses of fire
Kisses of fire

[rabidralph]

That’s what I thought but I wasn’t sure. I figured maybe there were only just four chords that everyone had to use back then.

[GSWarrior]

Thanks. I am so happy!

[GSWarrior]

Thank you so much! I have been truly blessed.
