CD 1:

Art rock in the history of rock is the most breathtaking, it represents not only

It is a musical style, noun, and terminology, and it is an unattainable height. From the technical proficiency, from the complexity of the arrangement, to the influence on many music styles in later generations, old warriors like King Crimson may really Will keep fighting on the stage until death.

03 Nick Drake: river man

In Nick Drake’s 26 years of life, although he only left us 3 albums and a collection of poems , but what affects us more is his admiration and yearning for nature, as well as our increasingly empty souls that no longer dare to look back and face.

04 janis joplin: cry baby

Janis Joplin is such a great female rock leader. If we still dare to talk about vocal skills and the need for rigorous orchestration in the soundtrack, then in front of rock and roll, in front of Janis Joplin, let all this go to hell. All she can do is sing the song of life and the soul.

05 james brown: it's a man's man's world

The originator of funk and the pioneer of soul music, what else can Let us forget James Brown. His figure seems to be shining in any guitar cut today. For the entire history of music, James Brown, he made rock and roll shine and shine.

06 eric clapton: wonderful toight

From cream to solo career, eric clapton’s works are always supported by his guitar skills, and his vicissitudes of face can make people sad to tears, and his suffering fate seems special. The tragedy was tormenting him, and he wrote the classic song "tears in heaven" when he was old and lost his son, but we would rather not have this song, so that the suffering man would not be tortured by fate again.

07 queen: we are the champions

Domineering, avant-garde, and gorgeous queen, almost all of her albums and works have been regarded as classics, and the most popular and spectacular occasion for this song may have been moved to football.

09 jimmy page & robert plant unledded: no quarter

A great singer coupled with an equally great guitarist, the result is the greatest band in the heavy metal trenches, the genius poetry of robert plant The dancing fingers with the soul of jimmy page bring us nothing but classics, and they lead us to the stairway to rock and roll heaven.

10 david bowie: space oddity

How about Looking for an appropriate word to describe david bowie, perhaps only the title of "rock chameleon" can give everyone a little understanding of him. From the 1960s to the present, david bowie has never stopped creating and performing. His exuberant energy and full of imagination His attitude towards life not only made all musicians admire him, but also had a huge impact on punk music, as well as his great friendship with Lao Li and Iggy Pop. Let us find a suitable evaluation to evaluate david bowie. This kind of behavior is deeply suspicious.

11 faces; flying

In the legendary rock and roll history of more than 30 years, singer Rod Stewart has always been a rock dancer.

An ageless fighter on the stage, although the Faces band did not achieve success, Rock Rooster's own development was steadily rising until he became famous.

12 bob dylan: ballad of a thim man

12 bob dylan: ballad of a thim man

p>

I remember seeing this sentence: bob dylan. Whenever this name is mentioned, people will have a sense of awe. The folk singer bob dylan is unfairly evaluated in terms of musicality. He is truly What he brings us is his critical lyric creation, and he has been singing about sensitive social topics such as politics and human nature for 40 years. In terms of his contribution to rock music, Bob Dylan must be looked up to at any time. A true hero.

13 heart: alone

In the early 1960s, the embryonic form of heart was established in Canada. After many twists and turns, the band’s name was finally decided to be officially called heart, from the names of its female members. Starting from this perspective, the creation is also based on this direction, and the music also shows the tenderness and delicacy that only women can achieve.

14 tom waits: time

Beat Life , with a decadent attitude, it can be seen that this little blue-collar man who sings blues and drinks strong drinks is the artistic successor of the Beat Generation. With his hoarse and lazy voice, he will tell you one tragic story after another after he is drunk. Story, tell you that you will never become that kind of big star.

CD 2:

1. the mamas amp; the papas: california dreamin

Flowers, freedom, love, and peace make it difficult for us to see the hippie era again, but many artists have truly witnessed history. Perhaps the short-lived band the mamas & the papas cannot represent the entire hippie culture, but It is their unremitting efforts that allow us to believe again today that so many beautiful ideals have truly existed and been realized. This song was once included in the work "Chungking Express" by Hong Kong director Wong Kar-wai.

2.lou reed: caroline says

Lao Li seems to always be in the right position. He is not complacent after truly getting the honor of being admired by future generations. He is still low-key and alternative. , still living, still existing in art and real life.

3. the police: every breath you take

After forming the police, Sting suddenly discovered that he His teammates couldn't play instruments, so he was not discouraged by this funny thing, and finally ushered in the success that followed. However, the good times did not last long. When the band was at its peak, Sting went solo and tried with many artists. After different collaborations, he also put himself in the rock and roll hall of fame.

4. kate bush: wuthering heights

wuthering heights is an 1847 novel by British writer Emily Bronte , the common translation is "Wuthering Heights", Kate Bush, a singer with a truly unique singing voice, has influenced many subsequent artists, but influence is influence, and artists who can truly imitate are usually very limited, let alone transcending. Kate Bush's singing skills and spiritual performance have become a legend that cannot be surpassed.

5. the turtles: happy together

The turtles who have never enjoyed the pleasure of success , was ruthlessly erased from the memory of music fans by pop music. From the early days of singing sweet and greasy love songs, to the failure of creative transformation, and the reorganization after disbandment, the Turtles left us with valuable topics. It seems there really aren’t many left.

6.black sabbath

:planet caravan

Old founder of metal music, each member of the band has become a figure worshiped as a god. Ozzy will always be the Satan-like devil, and the guitarist's tenacious will will always inspire Everyone who moves forward bravely, let us ride this interstellar caravan, rush towards the apocalypse that has been successfully destroyed, and taste the darkest slurry.

7.bob marley amp; the wailers: no woman, no cry

Jamaica's legendary civilian singer has never considered himself a star, even though his music has spread all over the world and is known to future generations, even after he is recognized as the greatest reggae singer. , what we talk about most is still music, music, music.

8. prince: purple rain

The pinnacle of pop music subculture, prince will always be popular The prince in music has more than mastered and seamlessly integrated more than dozens of musical instruments and music styles, and performed performances that exceeded physical limits. He believed in the theory of gender, and openly announced that the prince's next step will always be. It’s so exciting.

9. the doors: waiting for the sun

Another monument in the history of rock music. The poet and lead singer Jim Morrison is the son of a soldier, but he has told the world The temptations: my girl

Have you never heard of this song? Impossible, then let me tell you, this famous song once appeared as an episode in the Korean movie "My Sassy Girl", but this is the benefit of business, anyway It doesn't matter no matter how bad it is, if you put on the cloak of art, who is afraid of who?

11.scorpions: life's like a river

In this band, pop metal music is always sung in English. The violent atmosphere of the veteran band seems to have nothing to do with them. The most familiar works that they are really popular with everyone are love songs with metal-style orchestration. But if you want to find that kind of kitsch flavor, you will be wrong. If you don’t believe it, just listen to the song “wind of change”.

12. the who: the song is over

They have too many firsts, aside from Rankings and sales aside, they were the first band to smash guitars on stage, they had the first guitarist to use the windmill technique, and they wrote the first rock opera. They will always be number one. Unfortunately, they will always be number one. Due to the unfortunate death of their drummer, their subsequent albums were unsatisfactory, and just like this song, the song ended.

13. nzareth: love hurts

Hard rock in the 1970s The backbone band, the lead singer's high-pitched and hoarse yet soulful voice has made many music fans remember them. After achieving certain success, the band's works have never given too many surprises, and naturally there are not too many. Many companies and music fans still remember them.

14.linda ronstadt: long long time

“After reinterpreting songs” is her title. I don’t know if it counts. It's an honor, but she has really covered too many songs and all of them have achieved more or less certain results. This song also earned Linda a Grammy Award nomination.

Actress, Blues

Zangge/Collection

At first I didn’t think about making such a post. After all, listening to music is a very personal matter, and word-of-mouth recommendations are enough.

It wasn’t until more and more friends asked me about the music in my text posts and kept asking me to provide some links that I thought of putting out such a collection.

Due to personal preference, when I choose ambient light music and ambient music, I usually prefer feminine voices.

Most of these seventeen songs by female singers are in the five styles of Folk, Blues, Jazz, New Age, and Sound. In my opinion, they are all good songs that you can never tire of listening to.

Sara K

In my impression, every Sara K record is a model for audio audition. She has surpassed her singing and singing standards when she was young, and her works in recent years can be considered classic and mature. At the same time, as a xylophone player, her four-string guitar always has a charming sound, and she has a smooth control over her performance, and her live performance is excellent.

"Vincent" (click to download) is Sara K's cover of Don McLean's work. Personally, I think it surpasses the charm of the original work.

Starry, starry night

Paint your palette blue and gray

Look out on a summer’s day

With eyes that know the darkness in my soul

Shadows on the hills

Sketch the trees and the daffodils

Catch the breeze and the winter chills

In colors on the snowy linen land

Chorus:

Now I understand

What you tried to say to me

How you suffered for your sanity

How you tried to set them free

They would not listen they did not how

Perhaps they ll listen now

Starry, starry night

Flaming flowers that brightly blaze

Swirling clouds in violet haze

Reflect in Vincent s eyes of china blue

Colors changing hue

Morning fields of amber grain

Weathered faces lined in pain

Are soothed beneath the artist s loving hand

Chorus :

For they could not love you

But still your love was true

And when no hope was left inside

On that starry, starry night

You took your life as lovers often do

But I could have told you Vincent

This world was never meant for one as

p>

Beautiful as you

Starry, starry night

Portraits hung in empty halls

Frameless heads on nameless walls

With eyes that watch the world and can t forget

Like the strangers that you ve met

The ragged men in ragged clothes

The silver thorn of

bloody rose

Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

Now I think I know

What you tried to say to me

How you suffered for your sanity

How you tried to set them free

They would not listen they did not how

Perhaps they ll listen now

They did not listen they re not listening still

Perhaps they never will

02.

Lisa Ono

Lisa Ono was born in Brazil and originally from Japan. Her singing voice is ethereal, without any impurities. Music is a long-lasting sediment, and her works are very vital and can be said to never go out of style. For personal reasons, I only listen to her music when I'm alone.

The song "La Vie En Rose" (click to download) I put in the post is an old song published in 1942, originally sung by Edith Piaf. Lisa Ono's interpretation is the most successful among the more than 60 versions. She extracted the essence of the original song.

Quand il me prend dans ses bras,

Il me parle tout bas,

Je vois la vie en rose.

Il It's my best choice.

It's my favorite thing.

It's my favorite thing.

Une part de bonheur,

Dont je connais la cause.

Cest toi pour moi,

Moi pour toi,

Dans la vie.

Il me l a dit,

L a juré,

Pour la vie.

Etc. je l aper?ois,

Alors je sens en moi,

Mon coeur qui bat.

03.

Eva Cassidy

I learned some time ago that Eva Cassidy passed away from cancer in 1996 and was not taken seriously by the pop music industry during her lifetime. She worked in bars in Washington state in the northwestern United States and became famous in 1999. Her singing voice is the perfect combination of feminine tenderness and excitement, and her live performance is mature and restrained. According to the British BBC's democratically elected list of the greatest singers of the 20th century, Eva Cassidy is ranked 21st. Many weekly magazines in the United States have recently reported on Eva's story.

I often play this song "Song Bird" (click to download) on the school radio station, which goes well with afternoon tea.

For you there ll be no crying

For you the sun will be shining

Cause I feel that when I m with you

It's alright, I know it's right

And the songbirds keep singing

Like they know the score

And I love you, I love you, I love you

Like never before

To you, I would give the world

To you, I d never be cold

Cause I feel that when I m with you

It s alright, I know it s right

And the songbirds keep singing

Like they know the score

And I love you, I love you, I love you

Like never before

Like never before; like never before.

04.

Emi Fujita

At this time last year, a friend who likes to play drums asked me to listen to Emi Fujita. It tastes good and very refreshing. I have always felt that she is not a native Japanese. If you close your eyes, you may also think that this is an American voice.

Her masterpiece "The Water Is Wide" (click to download) has been re-produced by many light music groups. This song can impress anyone at dusk.

Suitable for playing and singing, it is also my choice for the guitar exam

The water is wide

I can't cross over

And either have

I wings to fly

Give me a boat

that can carry two

And both shall row

my love and I

p>

Oh love is gentle

and love is kind

The sweetest flower

when first it s new

But love goes on

then waxing cold

And fades away

like morning dew

There s a ship

and she sails the sea

She s loaded deep

as deep can be

But not as deep

as the love I m in

I know not if

I sink or swim

05.

Sinead O Connor

Always Sinead O Connor has always been a rebellious woman. Bald, sharp-tongued, irritable, and rarely feminine, she is a serious rock lady. She has repeatedly declared that she would refuse to appear if the Stars and Stripes were hung before her appearance, and even withdrew from the annual Grammy Awards despite four nominations.

About her, a song I often listen to is "Streets Of London" (click to download). She sings softly and whispers softly, with a slight quiet beauty, calm and calm. The story told in this song is very ethereal, very much like an impressionistic movie. Retired old sailors, faded medals, everything is very European.

Have you seen the old man

In the closed down market

Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes

In his eyes you see no pride

Hands held loosely at his side

Yesterday s paper, telling yesterday s news

* So how can you tell me you re lonely

And say for you that the sun don't shine

Let me take you by the hand

And lead you through the streets of London

I ll show you something

Have you seen the old girl

Who walks the streets of London

Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags

She s no time for talking

She just keeps right on walking

Carrying her home in two carrier bags

In the old night cafe at a quarter past eleven

The same old man sitting there on his own

Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup

Each tea lasts an hour, and he wanders home alone

Have you seen the old man

Outside the seaman s mission

Memory fading with the minor ribands that he wears

In our city winter the rain cries little pity

For one more forgotten hero

And a world which doesn't care

06.

Diana Krall

Diana Krall is very good at grasping the rhythm of jazz in singing, and the thickness is also in place. It is said that her father owned almost all the old records of the jazz pianist Fats Waller of the 1930s, and was familiar with almost all the jazz pianists of the 1920s and 1930s. These should be rare early teaching materials for Diana Krall. Personally, I think she has some shadow of Nat King Cole.

In comparison, I prefer the live version of "The Look Of Love" (click to download).

Everything arranged by Diana Krall is in place. This is the best Bossa Nova Jazz I have ever heard. The rhythm is agile, but the softness is sufficient. Everywhere smells of coffee and cigarettes.

the look of love is in your eyes

the look your smile can disguise

the look of love is saying so much more than just words could ever say

and what my heart has heard

well it takes my breath away

i can hardly wait to hold you feel my arms around you

how long i have waited

waited just to love you

now that i have found you

you ve got the look of love

it s on your face

a look that time can t erase

be mine tonight

let this be just the start of so many nights like this

let s take a lover s vow and then seal it with a kiss

i can hardly wait to hold you feel my arms around you

how long i have waited

waited just to love you

now that i have found you

don t ever go

don t ever go

i love you so

i can hardly wait to hold you feel my arms around you

how long i have waited waited just to love you

i can hardly wait to hold you feel my arms around you

p>

now that i have found you

don t ever go

don t ever go

don t ever go

07.

Norah Jones

Today, when Norah Jones is somewhat popular, Sofa Jazz is still a classic. She has a small band, including songwriter Jesse Harris and bassist Lee Alexander. She is used to spontaneously blending jazz tunes in her creations, adding her own passion when appropriate. Enough roundness and softness.

In the song "SevenYears" (click to download), Norah Jones describes the story of a country girl in less than two and a half minutes. At that time, there was loneliness and chaos, and most of the faces were peaceful.

Spinning, laughing, dancing

To her favorite song

A little girl with nothing wrong

Is all alone

Eyes wide open

Always hoping for the sun

And she will sing her song to anyone

That comes along

Fragile as a leaf in autumn

Just fallin to the ground

Without a sound

Crooked little smile on her face

Tells a tale of grace

That s all her own

Spinning, laughing, dancing

To her favorite song

She s a little girl with nothing wrong

And she s all alone

A little girl with nothing wrong

And she s all alone

08.

Laura Fygi

I saw Laura Fygi’s live performance for the first time on CCTV Music Channel. Her Dutch jazz style has a very European temperament. Her singing is like alcohol, pure and beautiful.

French composer Joseph Kosma composed this song "Autumn Leaves" (click to download) in 1945. Laura Fygi's version is the best work among hundreds of covers. This reinterpreted melody of resentment still retains the rich flavor of French chanson.

The falling leaves

drift by my window,

The autumn leaves

of red and gold;

I see your lips

the summer kisses,

The sunburned hands

I used to hold;

Since you went away,

The days are long,

And soon I will hear

old winter’s song;

But I miss you most of all

my darling,

When autumn leaves start to fall

09.

Keren Ann

keren Ann His profile is very charming. She has a complicated life experience, having grown up in Israel, the Netherlands, and France, and her voice is quite in line with the texture of European chamber music. These experiences harmonize her elegant and sophisticated temperament.

Many people really know her through this classic song "Not Going Anywhere" (click to download).

French is a very sexy language, and with Keren Ann's accent, you have every reason to spend the whole morning lazing in such an atmosphere.

This is why I always wonder

I m a pond full of regrets

I always try to not remember rather than forget

This is why I always whisper

When vagabonds are passing by

I tend to keep myself away from their goodbyes

Tide will rise and fall along the bay

p>

and I m not going anywhere

I m not going anywhere

People come and go and walk away

but I m ??not going anywhere

I m not going anywhere

This is why I always whisper

I m a river with a spell

I like to hear but not to listen,

I like to say but not to tell

This is why I always wonder

There is nothing new under the sun

I won t go anywhere so give my love to everyone

Tide will rise and fall along the bay

and I m not going anywhere

I m not going anywhere

People come and go and walk away

but I m ??not going anywhere

I m not going anywhere

10.

Meav

Many people admit that there are two most precious voices among female voices: deep and pure. The first time I heard the record, I was sure it was the ultimate in purity. Meav, who is from Dublin, has a special liking for Irish folk songs. She maintains an otherworldly state when performing every pure vocal piece, with great depth of thought.

"One Love" (click to download) is her most famous track.

One I Love

One I love, two she loves

Three she s true to me

All of my friends fell out with me

Because I kept your company

But let them say whatever they will

I love my love with a free good will

One I love, two she loves

And three she s true to me

They tell me he s poor, they tell me he s young

I tell them all to hold their tongue

If they could part the sand from the sea

They never could part my love from me

One I love, two she loves

Three she s true to me

When I m awake, I find no rest

Until his head lies on my breast

When I m asleep I m dreaming of

My own, my dear, my one true love

One I love, two she loves

Three she s true to me

When the fire to ice will run

And when the tide no longer turns

And when the rocks melt with the sun

My love for you will have just begun

One I love, two she loves

Three she s true to me

One I love, two she loves

And three she s true to me

11.

Qi Yu

Qi Yu’s "Olive Tree" has always been my My favorite Chinese song, I think her voice is perfect for singing Tiandish. Her "Buddha's Heart" and "Desirable Water", which later became the soundtrack of the film "Heavenly Bath", both made my eyes shine. Nowadays, temples in Guangdong, Fujian, and Hainan basically use the Qiyu version of the "Great Compassion Mantra". The recording and arrangement of this kind of ambient music are among the best in the country.

What is available for download here is the tear-jerking "Desire for Water" (click to download)

When the wind comes, the rain comes

Why do they all know

I can’t hear I can’t hear

Your voice is too small

The wind has stopped and the rain has stopped

Who is in my dream? Crying

I don’t understand, I don’t understand

The people in the sky are smiling

I don’t want to ask you if you remember who I am

The ice and snow on our fingers melted into tears

The sky only gave us half-sweet water

No matter how much we drank, we couldn’t learn to drink it

The wind came and the rain came

p>

Why do they all know

I can’t hear, I can’t hear

Your voice is too soft

I don’t want to ask you if you remember that I am Who

The ice and snow on our fingers melted into tears

The sky only gave us half-sweet water

We can’t learn how to drink

The wind is coming, the rain is coming

Why do they all know

I can’t hear it, I can’t hear it

Your voice is too soft

12.

Helene Segara

Helene Segara is very good at playing with the French style. Her voice is usually not very prominent in the arrangement, but it has charming and confusing qualities. I like her voice very much. The soft urban jazz music can make me drunk uncontrollably.

"Humaine" (click to download) exudes an exotic flavor from the very beginning. It is the most suitable off-road music to be played in the car.

Que jamais on ne me délivre

Des liens de mon enfance

Que jamais je n ouvre le livre

Où je comprendrai mes souf
