Some of my favorite French songs...

 

Sharing some of the songs from France, some of which are classic songs of 80s. Here are they:


1. Dalida - Là où je t'aime [Music Video] - L'acadèmie des 9 (1985)


2. Dalida - Je Suis Malade (HD)

(just amazing composition and lyrics, coming from a famous singer whose songs reflected the malade of her own life)...


3. This song Voyage Voyage is so special to my heart, as I find it very spiritual in terms of its lyrics..I especially like the softer cover version which I am sharing as well:

Desireless - Voyage Voyage (Official HD Video)

The cover (softer version) is just superb:

RUNES / VOYAGE VOYAGE (Desireless cover)


4. Another song (SOS d'un terrien en détresse), originally sung by the band Starmania  but I like the cover version by Dimash. The song has way too beautiful lyrics,

Classical Piano Music

 

Sharing some of the classical piano compositions I cherish so much:

(Well, there are so many, but I am sharing few selected ones here, click on the links as I cannot embed youtube videos)

I especially adore the classical Hungarian song Czardas..(sometimes it sounds similar to the changes in music rhythm of the famous violinist Paganini)

Czardas - Monti


Mariage d'Amour - Paul de Senneville || Jacob's Piano


The Heart Asks Pleasure First / The Promise (Edit)


Gibran Alcocer - Idea 10


Andare

(in the song Andare by Ludovico Einaudi, just adore the piano music that starts especially at 0:50)


The Oracle

(this song composed by the legend AR Rahman from the amazing movie 99 songs is just sublime and is so special)


Passacaglia – Handel/Halvorsen (Piano Solo)

Ascension

Interstellar Main Theme - Extra Extended - Soundtrack by Hans Zimmer


Stephan Moccio Performs October

(This particular song is very beautiful, and for some reason the artist eerily resembles one of Professors back in my last university with the same first name :))


All Those Days


Lotus

Beanie - Chezile (Piano Cover)

Yanni one man's dream


Robert Miles - Children [Dream Version]


Mary On A Cross (Piano)

Vincent Lee - With A Piece Of Chalk (Motion Picture Soundtrack)

Yann Tiersen - Comptine d'un autre été (Amélie)


Ahu Saglam - Gülümcan (Piano Cover)

(this is a beautiful Turkish music song Gulumcan, which has been played on piano, though its ensemble on guitar is also amazing)



Divine Santoor piece

 

I would like to share a music composition on santoor played by the talented Iranian Santoor artist Kourosh Zolani.  I find this composition especially divine as it starts with sounds which almost resemble that of a heart beating, and then music goes further with varying rhythms. Well truth be told; neither do I have a background in music, nor do I understand how to read music, but the sounds just resonate with my being. I almost have a sonic memory, everything for me is sound...and music...


Here is the brilliant music composition on santoor:
