Si Seulement Je Pouvais Lui Manquer │ Vox Angeli

In this edition of Angel Watchers I am featuring a fantastic group from France called Vox Angeli.  In the video below they sing the beautiful "Si Seulement Je Pouvais Lui Manquer (If Only I Could Miss Him)", that was popularized by Calogero.  It was actually co-composed by Calogero, his brother Gioacchino, Michel Jourdan, and Julie D'Aimé.  "Si Seulement Je Pouvais Lui Manquer" tells the story of a man who wishes that he had a good relationship with his father who was absent in his life.  In 2005, this song was awarded "Original song of the year" at the Victoires de la Musique.  The members of Vox Angeli are, Lola Beris, Iris Lambert, Claire Conruyt, Étienne Girardin, Louis-Alexander Désiré, and Mathis De Ruyver.  Safe journeys to all the fans of Angel Watchers, wherever you may be.

João Pedro Geadas │ Recherché

In this edition of Angel Watchers I am bringing back João Pedro Geadas, the extraordinary fadista from Portugal.  João is the new face of Fado.  In a previous post I featured him singing the beautiful "Cartas de Amor (Letters Of Love)"   Well, I just discovered João singing a new version of that same song.  It is fantastic, and I just had to share it with all of the fans of Angel Watchers.  This new video also contains a cool interview with João.  I will be following his career, and will post new videos of him as they become available.  Safe journeys to all the fans of Angel Watchers, wherever you may be.

You Never Walk Alone │ Michael Junior

In this special edition of Angel Watchers, I am featuring Michael Junior, who is from Belgium, singing the beautiful "You Never Walk Alone".  This song was originally from the Broadway musical, "Carousel".  It was written by two geniuses of the American musical theater, Richard Rogers and Oscar Hammerstein.  I just felt that we all needed a moment of peace and tranquility because of the turmoil in the world today.  Safe journeys to all the fans of Angel Watchers, wherever you may be.

Love's Been Good To Me │ Frank Sinatra

In this very special edition of Angel Watchers, I am featuring Frank Sinatra, the greatest American singer of them all.  Since this blog is mainly about music, I thought that it was appropriate, and about time, that I featured the master singer himself, Frank Sinatra.  I also did this to point out that I am an American, because I still get a lot of email from the fans of Angel Watchers, who try to guess what my country of origin is.  Many of the fans think that I am either German, Russian, or French, because I rarely present American artists on Angel Watchers.  Please let me say again, I am an American, and will always be an American.  "Loves' Been Good To Me" is probably Frank Sinatra's best song.  It was written by the American composer Rod McKuen, who by-the-way, was a close friend and collaborator of  Belgian singer/composer Jacques Brel.  "Love's Been Good To Me" speaks very intimately to my soul.  You might say that it defines who I am.  It is my personal anthem.  Please listen closely to the lyrics as it has a lot of life's lessons for all of us to learn.  Frank Sinatra ceased his earthly existence on May 14, 1998.  Safe journeys to the fans of Angel Watchers, wherever you may be.

Zurbagan │ Roman Voloznev (роман волознев)

Roman Voloznev (роман волознев), who is from Minsk, Belarus, sings with so much soul, that it just breaks your heart.  Every note, every word, is full of incredible feelings.  Roman is so good, I believe that he can sing the pages of a telephone book, and make it sound haunting, and beautiful.  Now, that is talent.  Take notice of the way that Roman moves, and sways on stage.  It's graceful and full of energy.  The song Roman sings is called "Zurbagan", which is the name of a mythical city featured in the novels of  Alexander Grin.  "Zurbagan" is also the theme song of the  Russian  coming-of-age movie called "Vishe Radugi" (Выше радуги), or "Above The Rainbow".  It is actually the song that starts the movie.  "Vishe Radugi" was released in 1986.  Roman gives a very soulful performance of "Zurbagan".  Safe journeys to all the fans of Angel Watchers, wherever you may be.
