Excuse me for being a bit patriotic, but in these sad days of lockdown, look what Italy has produced in the way of music and scenery. First Andrea Bocelli in a deserted Piazza del Duomo in Milan with Amazing Grace, now Antonio Diodato in the empty Arena di Verona singing Fai Rumore ( make a noise) his contribution for the Eurovison song contest and the winning song at the Sanremo Song Festival beginning of February.

Re: Your favourite music on Youtube etc...
Anyone know what the lyrics of this lovely song are about. I heard it mentioned along the lines of a soldier helping his mate striving to survive after a battle. I suppose this might have been the thoughts with the line,"I know the armour's heavy now"
Eddi Reader really is very special - love her and the song.

Beauty is within grasp
Hear the islands call
The last mile is upon us
I'll carry you if you fall
I know the armour's heavy now
I know the heart is tired
It's beautiful just over
The wild mountainside
Snow is falling all over
Out of clear blue sky
Crow is flying high over
You and I are going to wander
High up where the air is rare
Wild horses ride
It's beautiful, let's go over
The wild mountainside
Wild and free we roam
Only a mile to go
Wild and free we roam
Only a mile to go
Beauty is within grasp
Hear the highlands call
The last mile is upon us
I'll carry you if you fall
I know the armour's heavy now
I know the heart inside
It's beautiful let's go over
The wild mountainside
It's beautiful just roaming
The wild mountainside
Hear the islands call
The last mile is upon us
I'll carry you if you fall
I know the armour's heavy now
I know the heart is tired
It's beautiful just over
The wild mountainside
Snow is falling all over
Out of clear blue sky
Crow is flying high over
You and I are going to wander
High up where the air is rare
Wild horses ride
It's beautiful, let's go over
The wild mountainside
Wild and free we roam

Wild Mountainside was written by John Douglas of the Trashcan Sinatras - a band originally from Irvine. He married Eddi Reader in 2013.

Re: Your favourite music on Youtube etc...
Thanks, Bruce. Eddi put her heart into that - so lovely. Just one of the few tunes along with Ashokan Farewell that gives me damp eyes - that too has a Scottish connection according to the composer.
I might have to have an afternoon snooze and listen to your radio show which is on after midnight here in Oz.
