Walk & Don t Look Back – Peter Tosh & Mick Jagger

[Verse 1: Peter Tosh]
If it’s love that you’re running from
There is no hiding place
(You can’t run, you can’t hide, you can’t run)
Just your problems, no one else’s problems
You just have to face
(You can’t run, you can’t hide, you can’t run)

[Chorus: Peter Tosh & Mick Jagger]
Oh, if you just put your hand in mine
We’re gonna leave all our troubles behind
Gonna walk and don’t look back (Don’t look back)
Gonna walk and don’t look back (Don’t look back)

[Verse 2: Mick Jagger]
Now if your first lover let you down
There’s something that can be done
(You can’t run, you can’t hide, you can’t run)
Tell ’em what to do, bro
Don’t kill your faith in love
Remembering what’s become, oh no
(You can’t run, you can’t hide, you can’t run)

[Chorus: Peter Tosh & Mick Jagger]
If you just put your hand in mine
We’re gonna leave all our troubles behind
Gonna walk and don’t look back (Don’t look back)
Gonna walk and don’t look back (Don’t look back)

Mark Lanegan Tribute Show

Mark Lanegan 60: A Celebration
Roundhouse, London
5th December 2024

The likes of Dave Gahan, Chrissie Hynde, Josh Homme, Bobby Gillespie, and Alison Mosshart celebrated what would have been Mark Lanegan’s 60th birthday with stellar renditions of his greatest songs. At times delicate, at others thunderous, always emotional.

“We all loved him in our own ways,” Greg Dulli says towards the end of Mark Lanegan 60: A Celebration. “If you knew him, you loved him. But if you just loved his music, that was plenty.”

Peak Human Experience, Database of – ChillsDb

https://www.chillsdb.com/

Abstract
We introduce ChillsDB the first validated database of audiovisual stimuli eliciting aesthetic chills (goosebumps, psychogenic shivers) in a US population. To discover chills stimuli “in the wild”, we devised a bottom-up, ecologically-valid method consisting in searching for mentions of the emotion’ somatic markers in user comments throughout social media platforms (YouTube and Reddit). We successfully captured 204 chills-eliciting videos of three categories: music, film, and speech. We then tested the top 50 videos in the database on 600+ participants and validated a gold standard of 10 stimuli with a 0.9 probability of generating chills. All ChillsDB tools and data are fully available on GitHub for researchers to be able to contribute and perform further analysis.

Background & Summary
Aesthetic chills are a universal marker of human peak experiences across the arts, sciences and world religions. Best characterized as the feeling of cold down the spine or goosebumps while engaging with music or film, chills are the sensation associated to shivers: short thermogenic tremors of skeletal muscles. Though ordinarily involved in the regulation of temperature (or as an immune response during fever), chills can also be triggered by information-related processes (e.g., music, stories, speeches), independently of changes in temperature (i.e., psychogenic shivers, thereafter “chills”).

David Gilmour Answers Questions in the Guardian

What does your Comfortably Numb guitar solo mean to you? Do you know what it is saying, if it is saying something? UncleSweetheart
The music I wrote that I play over that solo is a simple but effective, inspiring sequence. It’s very nice to play over, and every time I play it, it means something different.

What remaining ambitions do you have in terms of music creation? JohnAlexF
My ambition is to keep going. As soon as this tour is finished, I’ll get back to work in my studio creating more music. I don’t have higher ambitions than that.

Thriller – Michael Jackson

Thriller is the sixth studio album by the American singer and songwriter Michael Jackson, released on November 29, 1982,[4][5] by Epic Records. It was produced by Quincy Jones, who previously worked with Jackson on his 1979 album Off the Wall. Jackson wanted to create an album where “every song was a killer”. With the ongoing backlash against disco music at the time, he moved in a new musical direction, resulting in a mix of pop, post-disco, rock, funk, synth-pop, and R&B sounds, and darker themes. Paul McCartney appears on “The Girl Is Mine“, the first credited appearance of a featured artist on a Michael Jackson album. Recording took place from April to November 1982 at Westlake Recording Studios in Los Angeles, California, with a budget of $750,000.

Bruce Springsteen Endorses Harris Walz Ticket

On the other hand, Kamala Harris and Tim Waltz are committed to a vision of this country that respects and includes everyone regardless of class, religion, race, your political point of view or sexual identity, and they want to grow our economy in a way that benefits all, not just the few like me on top. That’s the vision of America I’ve been consistently writing about for 55 years now.

Everybody sees things different, and I respect your choice as a fellow citizen, but like you, I’ve only got one vote, and it’s one of the most precious possessions that I have.

That’s why come November 5th, I’ll be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.”
