MOON RIVER ~ ANDY WILLIAMS

*****************************
Grammy Song Of the Year 1962
*****************************

"Moon River" is a song composed by Johnny Mercer (lyrics) and Henry Mancini (music) in 1961, for whom it won that year's Academy Award for Best Original Song. It was originally sung in the movie Breakfast at Tiffany's by Audrey Hepburn, although it has been covered by many other artists. The song also won the 1962 Grammy Award for Record of the Year.It became the theme song for Andy Williams, who first recorded it in 1961 and performed it at the Academy Awards ceremonies in 1962. He sang the first eight bars at the beginning of his television show and also named his production company and venue in Branson, Missouri after it. Williams' version was disliked by Cadence Records president Archie Bleyer, who believed it had little or no appeal to teenagers. Andy Williams' version never charted, except as an LP track, which he recorded for Columbia in a hit album of 1962. The song's most famous line, "...my huckleberry friend...", was not a reference to Mark Twain's Huck Finn. Rather, Mercer had originally titled the song "Blue River" (changing it only after recalling another song with the same title), and the initial lyrics contained many references to that color. Although Mercer dropped most of the blue references in his revised lyrics, he kept the huckleberry in simply because he liked how it sounded.

THE BATTLE OF NEW ORLEANS

*****************************
Grammy Song Of the Year 1960
*****************************

"The Battle of New Orleans" is the name of a song written by Jimmie Driftwood. The song details the 1815 Battle of New Orleans from the perspective of an American fighting alongside Andrew Jackson against British forces, but the tone is lighthearted. It has been recorded by many artists, but the one most often associated with this song is Johnny Horton. His version topped the Billboard Hot 100 in 1959 (see 1959 in music). In Billboard magazine's rankings of the top songs in the first fifty years of the Billboard Hot 100 chart, "The Battle of New Orleans" was ranked as the twenty-eighth song overall and the number-one country song to appear on the chart. The melody has its roots in a well-known American fiddle tune "The 8th of January", which was the date of the Battle of New Orleans. Jimmie Driftwood, a school principal in Arkansas with a passion for history, set a historical account of the battle to this music in an attempt to get students interested in learning history. It worked, and Driftwood became well known in the region for his historical songs. He was "discovered" in the late 1950s by Don Warden, and eventually signed to a recording contract by RCA, for whom he recorded 12 songs in 1958, including "The Battle of New Orleans".

Being Practical

Nowadays, we really have to be very practical in our decisions especially now that we are experiencing global financial crisis. You really don't have to be very luxurious all the time especially when it comes to buying items or products. Just like in buying clothes, you do not have to wear and buy those branded clothes, there are clothes being sold in the market or malls that are lesser in price but provides the same quality and feeling of comfortability. Instead of buying a brand new or expensive car, why don't you try buying used car? They are cheap yet performs well as long as you bought it from a well trusted used car dealer. You can also make that car more appealing by replacing some of its parts to items that you can buy from scrapyards like that Auto Wrecking Seattle shop. they sure have something for your car and make it look like brand new again. Well, there's nothing wrong in buying cheap and recycled items as long as they provide the same quality when you use it. Well again,that's just being practical and being practical is such a wise option.

A trouble Along the Way

I just went to a party last Friday and i was able to see some of my friends and former high school classmates on that event. I also get a chance to see their cars. In fact, we had a discussion about their autos and tell us how much they've bought it. It is very undeniable that all of us there love cares and it's funny to see how serious they face whenever they heard something about cars. LOL. One of them told us that he just bought a new car accessory and upgraded his gps system for his car. I do not have a car of my own but my dad used to let me borrow his Honda Civic every time i will be attending a special occasion like this. I remember one day, i borrowed his car and drive it all the way to Baquio City. However, while i was on the middle of my driving, the engine starts to malfunction for some reason. I do not know how to fix any car related problems so i just ask for help from an auto repair shop. I am very thankful that i was able to seek help from a repair shop like that auto repair spokane has. they were able to fix the issue in no time and i was able to go back safe and sound. Oh i didn't tell this to my dad too LOl so that he can let me borrow this car again.

Jac Chebatoris of Newsweek considered it "the CD's standout tune", and remarked that Parton's voice on the track is "still powerful and clear after all these years." Allmusic was somewhat less enthusiastic, deeming the song "cloyingly wise", but "catchy enough".

Bringing that Confident Smile Back

I had this dental operation called "Pasta". It is almost similar to the process known as "Jacketing" but provides temporary effects. It fills out those damaged tooth structure and restore the damages tooth. They implant a synthetic material to replace the damage tooth. Well, the operation turns out so well and i was able to bring that confident smile back to me. My front incisors got damaged after eating a hard food. The dentist told me that i "pasta" provides a temporary effect only and will bring my tooth condition back. He suggested me to go back after a few months so that he can perform "Jacketing" which provides a long lasting or even a life time event. I was lucky that i have landed to a good dentist like those best Dentists Vancouver WA has. Finally, i can smile now without any hesitation LOL. Have a great day everyone and happy blogging!

Black Friday Shopping Rush

We only have few days left before the much awaited Shopping rush of the year! It’s Black Friday next week and i assumed most of you are preparing your budget to shop for toys and other Christmas items. Black Friday is considered as one of the busiest shopping season of the year. This is the day when business establishments, malls and other shopping centers cut off the prices of some selected items on such a very low price. It is not surprising to see a huge crowd waiting for the mall to open. Well, we cannot blame the crowd especially that most items can be bought in such a very low prize that’s why they are grabbing this once a year opportunity to shop at a very low cost. I hate shopping a lot but when it comes to Black Friday, i just can’t miss the event and go to the nearest mall and shop.
Malls every Black Friday open as early as 4 am and i just hope they will assign some crowd control agents to prevent any worst case scenario including the possible stampede. Or maybe they can place some equipment there to organize the event properly and safely. Besides, they can just put some barricades so that people can be aware that they are not allowed to go to the other side and vice versa.
The huge amount of crowd are hard to control but the mall can still protect some of their items by placing stanchions and velvet rope around the selected item to protect it from getting damage. Black Friday is such a great event but everybody is panicking or rushing around just to get their desired item, the event can be disastrous. So in order to prevent any worst case scenario, I think the mall should do some crowd control practices and actions. And of course, we buyers should practice self discipline too to make this event entertaining and safe.

Medical Malpractices

We keep hearing news about some medical malpractices where doctor, surgeons or other related fields failed to perform their duties well. There's no such thing as excuses when it comes to a sensitive medical operation. Doctors were trained for such a long period of time and they have no rights to be on that position unless they really master their skills and profession. Surgeons for example should treat their patients as exactly what the patients want that is why it is quite alerting to see those medical malpractices which ruined their patients figure. I remember there was a report about a woman who undergone cosmetic surgery but ends up with a disastrous outcome. Same thing goes with major operating procedures like hip transplant for example. Hip Transplant is such a sensitive operation and any single mistake on the operation will take the patient into a nightmare. Well, good thing they can fight for their rights by filing DePuy hip lawsuit against those irresponsible doctors. We should all be aware of these issues and we have to make sure that we will be dealing with a well trusted doctors or surgeons before undergoing any medical operation.

How True The Rapture Is

If you are a Christian, I assumed you are aware about The Rapture of the Church and what does it mean. There's no date provided in the bible when exactly this rapture will happen but the what so called resurrection of the Death, changing the life of those humans, setting them free from the earthly sins and to live an eternal life with God has been very clear and has been mentioned several times in the bible. This may sounds frightening to some people but according to our pastor, we should have nothing to worry and there should be nothing to be afraid of. In fact, this is the event that we should all look forward to because this is the time when God will take us to his heavenly paradise where we will all live eternally.

Knowing more about Infrared and Infrared Saunas

Have you ever heard of the term "Infrared"? How about an "infrared sauna"? Well, i first heard this term when i bought my very first cellphone. I remember there was this infrared system or device that allows users to communicate to each other in a single mobile application like games. But it lost th limelight as the what so called "bluetooth" was developed which provides wider function than infrared. However, i am still confused with this infrared system and i do not have any idea how does it really works. According to a website, it is an electromagnetic radiation of a wavelength longer than that of visible light but shorter that of radio waves. It is said that this radiating energy can penetrates the body and heats it directly and more efficiently through a process called conversion.
