What are you listening to in 2026 ?

(1) I never knew The Seekers were Australian. (2) These lyrics are a lot more insightful than I realized; I'd never closely listened until a few weeks ago when this song was played as part of an online class I'm taking.

really ?..you never knew they were Australian ?... I always thought that was the most outstanding about them.... that they were so clearly Australian..:D
 
I like this new version of ''without you'' by Tom Grenna

I was driving home yesterday , coming through the woods when this came on the radio, and I started to sing along... a few bars in I realised I was off key.. and couldn't think why for a few seconds until I realised it wasn't Nilsson, and this guy is singing it in a different key...

 
I like to listen to the story in a song and I began looking up some songs and what inspired them.
It helps me appreciate knowing why the song was written, so
Smoke on the Water was written because:
What It’s About: The fire that broke out at the Montreux Casino in Switzerland on December 4, 1971, resulted from an incident during a Deep Purple concert. As Deep Purple played their song "King Kong," a concert-goer purportedly fired a flare gun, setting a nearby wooden roof on fire. The fire was devastating for the casino, although there were only minor injuries reported.

No, I missed that somehow! Quite embarrassing.

Then I found this, which moved me to tears. I wish my country would get some sort of unity like this back. Heck even civility would be good.
