"And I wonder, should I offer you a chair?
Well, if you sit down with this old clown, take that frown and break it
Before the evening's gone away, I think that we could make it
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you"

hope we're all chock full of nostalgia for where we came from and use it to shape future travel plans
I was listening to the Ethiopian jazz you posted and left the room with the tv on and Youtube playing while I went to game online poker and get stoned for a couple hours. I got super stoned and when I came back in to the room at like 2am and this song and video was just kind of playing for me as I walked back in....lol
I felt like I was in a trance for a few moments ngl
While he's not close to Rutger Hauer or Dennis Bergkamp when it comes to my favourite Dutch person, Tiësto is still pretty far up on that list.

had similar thoughts when it was first heard
hence my excitement
quite different from anything else and not something to simply dust off your ears after it tickles
Jimmy reminds me of another musical genius with a similar name

listen hard, not too many things in life are better than his lyrics to this song and the way he phrases them
Yeah, anyone that can rhyme MOSES AND GROCERIES is ok in my book......

Norway only had one tv-channel when I was growing up - they started transmitting at 6 pm (except for weekends when they would start earlier) and ended at midnight. There was a regular schedule each day (news, sports and so on) but every day had a special "thing". Monday was a movie, Tuesday was a theatre-setup, Wednesday was a comedy show... I'm actually not sure if Thursday had a set thing, but Saturday had a a football-match from England and a general entertainment thing in the evening while Sunday was typically sports and an opera-performance.
Friday though, was Crime-night with a detective show - it was shown late at night and way past my bedtime, but I was lucky enough to grow up with awesome parents and I knew that as long as I went to bed at my given bed-time, but still stayed awake, my dad would pop his head in the door and go "You're still awake, huh? Well, you can come out to watch the detective-show" when it started. So I'd bring my duvet to the couch and wrap up in that to watch.
It alternated between different detective shows - there was The Saint with Roger Moore, Kojak, Baretta, Columbo and a lot of others which were all good, but the one we all loved the most and especially hoped for, was Derrick.
Say what you want about the Germans, but dammit, they know how to do detective-shows. And set them to awesome music.
If you already know Derrick, you obviously do not need any background to understand the awesomeness of these tunes.
If you, like I suspect most, do not, you just have to overlook the slightly(?) creepy look of Frank Duval and imagine that you're listening to these songs interwoven into an incredibly moving storyline that you've just watched where people have gotten murdered and brutalized and it's all really sad and touching. And just when everything is at it's most emotional, these songs rise up from the background to drive the point home.
^Nice... I grew up on that LP. I remember when it was first released.
My best friend was a self taught pianist and he could play the Excerpts from the six wives of King Henry the Eighth in its entirety. In the mid 1970's, that pretty much blew everybody's mind back then.
Chris Squires bass work was so cinematic on that track. Bruford was simply the best drummer for several bands.
This is why I love these guys so much...
