Parachutes and Airplanes
The roller coaster ride that is TOSOD continues when you listen to the 7th cut of this album, “Parachutes & Airplanes”. I’d say it is well placed in the CD setlist, coming after “Falling Stars”. Nicknamed “PANDA” by the arch angels, it is probably the 2nd track that the fan base is most familiar with (aside ...
Songs in the Key of David- 12
Although there are literally dozens and dozens of songs I think of David applying his magic to, I am most impressed with the soulful side of David. It’s not often enough for me that he’s given an opportunity to explore that side of himself. We saw a sneak peak of it at the Reno Works For ...
Songs in the Key of David – 11
Since we all seem to like the vocalization without the words in “Bubbly”, I thought this might be an interesting song to think about for David to sing. Definitely a little different than what we might normally imagine David singing. Needless to say, there are no lyrics. Pink Floyd – The Great Gig in the Sky
Songs in the Key of David- 10
I’ve always loved this song, but hadn’t heard it since B.D. (before David). So when it came on the radio the other day, I immediately superimposed every phrase with David’s voice. The soulful yearning, the swells, slow build and room to improvise … can’t you just hear David gettin’ down with his bad self on ...
Songs in the Key of David- 9
Yes this song has been covered about 5o times, so what harm would there be in one more? I love this song and the soaring “awaaaayyyy.” Just the thought of a David Archuleta ” just walk awaaayyyy Renee” makes me all tingly,….. and the change ups…. killer. Thought you might enjoy a little history on the ...
Songs in the Key of David – 8
The following was excerpted from a 1994 publication “Elvis Rock ‘n’ Roll Legend” by Susan Doll about the televised “The ’68 Comeback Special” which featured this song as its closing. “Elvis had always been an attractive man, but on this program he was radiantly handsome and his voice had never been better. The producer/director wanted Elvis to sing ...
Songs in the Key of David- 7
I think David would do more than just do justice to this song. His way of “feeling and making us feel” the emotions, sensations, and heart of a song would make this song gorgeous. I kind of think that this is how David feels about “love”. I think David could do some of Elvis’ songs as ...
Songs in the Key of David- 6
This song is one of my all time favorites. I think it is perfect for David. It is not overdone, it is natural and organic. And ……(David is kind of mystical anyway.) ~betsy Into the Mystic – by Van Morrison [audio:http://www.thedavidchronicles.com/audio/Into The Mystic.mp3] Buy on Amazon.com We were born before the wind also younger than the sun ere the bonnie boat was ...
Songs in the Key of David-5: A Campaign
We want to submit the song ONE, by U2 and MJ Blige. This is a song David can shine on. He has proven during the Solo Tour that he can sing this as well as Bono and MJ Blige. He has the vocal range and would bring so much intensity to the song. Abrra has ...
Songs in the Key of David- 4
There isn’t anything special about these lyrics in terms of an association with David. For me, this is all about the melody, the voice, the sound – and how David might sound singing this. Enjoy! -Marlie In The Air Tonight Phil Collins [audio:http://www.thedavidchronicles.com/audio/InTheAirTonight.mp3] I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord I’ve been waiting for this moment ...
