    Yesterday: Jack Malik is a struggling singer-songwriter in an English seaside town whose dreams of fame are rapidly fading, despite the fierce devotion and support of his childhood best friend, Ellie. After a freak bus accident during a mysterious global blackout, Jack wakes up to discover that The Beatles have never existed. Performing songs by the greatest band in history to a world that has never heard them, Jack becomes on overnight sensation with a little help from his agent.

    What I love about this thread is that my taste of music is like the complete opposite of everyone else’s heh. :)

    If you want to make your own Alvin and the chipmunks thread I don't think anyone would care.

    @TorturedBlazerFan, my wife has been in Cambodia on business/ministry events these past couple of weeks. Anyway, we love to to send songs back and forth to each other...songs that have had an effect on our relationship over the years....songs that we kind of call our own.

    She sent me this song to me this morning. It's a song I sent to her while we were long-distance dating a few years ago. It's a classic, but this version always brings tears to my eyes. Eva Cassidy sang beautifully. She died way to young....

    Brings back some great memories for me, as well. Fresh out of the Army and working at Tektronix in my first days.

    Beethoven - Violin Romance No. 2


    My mentally ill brother married a mentally ill woman. My mother got the marriage annulled.
    This lady led a tragic life as did my brother however she had one great talent, she was a gifted classical violinist. She played this tune at my wedding in 1979 and it is the most beautiful violin music I've ever heard. When she played it I was immediately struck monumentally. If you like classical music and the violin and Beethoven you need to listen to it.
    I've been looking for the name of this music for over two decades and then I heard it in the movie "The Ritz". I did a google on the movie and finally came up with the name of the music.
