The Aristocats is a surprisingly appropriate accompaniment as cats feature prominently in several Scandinavian myths. Utgard-Loki had a cat that was so heavy even Thor couldn't lift it.

Captain Beefheart - I'm Long Gone to Hong Kong Kong

 

[Horatio Parker]

Kathleen Battle - Mozart - Magic Flute - Ach, ich fühl's, es ist verschwunden


Ah, I feel it, it has disappeared
Forever gone love¹s happiness!
Nevermore will come the hour of bliss
Back to my heart!
See, Tamino, these tears,
Flowing, beloved, for you alone!
If you don't feel the longing of love
Then there will be peace in death!

Name Me Someone Who's Ridiculous: Charles Mingus Fables of Faubus 1957



Oh, Lord, don't let 'em shoot us!
Oh, Lord, don't let 'em stab us!
Oh, Lord, don't let 'em tar and feather us!
Oh, Lord, no more swastikas!
Oh, Lord, no more Ku Klux Klan!
Name me someone who's ridiculous, Danny.
Governor Faubus!
Why is he so sick and ridiculous?
He won't permit integrated schools.
Then he's a fool! Oh Boo!
Boo! Nazi Fascist supremacists
Boo! Ku Klux Klan (with your Jim Crow plan)
Name me a handful that's ridiculous, Danny.
Faubus, Nelson Rockefeller, Eisenhower
Why are they so sick and ridiculous?
Two, four, six, eight:
They brainwash and teach you hate.
H-E-L-L-O, Hello

The first by Ravel is nice and the second by Hermann seems to be an homage if I am polite. But I like it better.

[The Sage of Main Street]

The first by Ravel is nice and the second by Hermann seems to be an homage if I am polite. But I like it better.

Ravel and Debussy seem to come up with the right note out of nowhere, as if following some secret code that made them aware of what other composers couldn't see being there.
