I got to see the full moon on the east-west portion of my way to work....the longest part.
It kept coming out of the clouds, went back in, and came back out. It was really cool.
Way to go, Maddi....an excellent first message...
“dloetmll=e dknlc,dt” to you

Thanks, real saxophonist, for your contributions.
This will be really old, but one of the most inspirational songs ever written is “You’ll never walk alone”. I heard it recorded/performed by Perry Como when I was very young.
“When you walk through a storm, hold your head up high and don’t be afraid of the dark.
At the end of the storm is a golden sky, and the sweet silver song of a Lark.
Walk on through the wind, walk on through the rain, though your dreams be tossed and blown.
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart, and you’ll never walk alone...
You’ll never walk alone!”
Rodgers and Hammerstein, from “Carousel”. It’s the finale. Several versions have been posted in this thread. Great song.
Ok, never bothered to find out its origin, and the Como rendition is/was so special to me, never connected it to anyone else.
And yes, it’s a fabulous lyric as well as musical composition.
“Carousel” was made into a movie in 1956. It’s worth renting. It’s rare to have a musical where the hero is killed in the middle of the show.
As you can see, I haven’t kept up with this whole thread as you seemed to.
Anyone posted “Walk right back” by the Everly Brothers, or “Walk on the Wild side” by Lou Reed?
I’m not sure if anyone posted the Everly Brothers tune, but I posted the Lou Reed video, and with great trepidation. That video was R-rated!
I’m not familar with the Lou Reed video, only the song itself.
The Everlys performance of “Walk right back” is from a live appearance in 1985 in the UK. Must’ve been a nostalgia tour...
YouTube - Everly Brothers, Walk Right Back.

Speaking of the Everlys and their UK perfomance on youtube of “Walk right back”...
It has always impressed me that the British Rockers admittedly idolized American Rockabilly stars such as the Everlys, Fats Domino, Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison etc...
It was an OOpsie moment so I asked the Mod's to pull it for me.;-}
It’s called the “cold” moon...for a reason! LOL! It is clear here and the moon was bright and beautiful!
The Stroll - (An alternate video of this same song where you can watch them doing the stroll - a bit of history in black and white.)
Walk Softly On This Heart Of Mine - The Kentucky Headhunters (ignore all photos).
Walking and Whistling Blues - Les Paul
Thank you for yours.
Some great ones in here. I’m a bit late, but want to add this great Pittsburgh hit:
Walk - The Fenways
