Farin Posted June 20, 2012 Report Posted June 20, 2012 Fur Elise - Ludwig Van Beethoven (1867) My first reaction was, that that can't be - Beethoven didn't live that long... but apparently it was only published 40 years after his death. Interesting, I didn't know that
Farin Posted June 20, 2012 Report Posted June 20, 2012 Om Du Moter Varg ~ Detektivbyran (2008) "If you encounter a wolf" in English Jump in the Line ~ Harry Belafonte (1961) also famous for being featured in the final scene of "Beetlejuice" Summertime ~ Morcheeba (1998) still my most favourite version of the Gershwin song

Shawna Posted June 20, 2012 Report Posted June 20, 2012 1. Still in the Game ~ Steve Winwood (random trivia: that's his sister singing with him) 2. Caroline ~ My Darling Murder (gorgeous song) 3. Last Night Again ~ Steel Magnolia (I love this song, it's really different... plus, I loved talking to him - Interview with Steel Magnolia. I became an instant fan.)
