Don't know why, but Al Stewart makes me think of this one from Oasis:

Lovely, absolutely lovely.

I think I have posted this before but it's worth another look.

A delight beyond expression.

And many a poor man that has roved,
Loved and thought himself beloved,
From a glad kindness cannot take his eyes.

Yep, that's great. Music like that is wonderful.

The thing I like about Heifetz is his style always grabs me. When I'm working, I'll notice, it breaks my concentration on work. Nine times out of ten, at the end they say it was Heifetz. I first heard him playing Scottish Fantasie on a tape one of the vets I worked for loaned me. I've been a fan ever since.

Now help me out someone, what do the title and the words "geasa" and "lios" mean?
I've tried to find them but have been unsuccessful.

A cellist's rant against Pachelbel. Quite humerous, especially toward the end.

Wonderful. Probably my favorite "pop" song of the 1990's.
