"Wind In The Willows"

I'm not sure if that could be a willow tree in the background. If it is I could use "Wind In The Willows" by Blackmore's Night 'cos there was a bit of breeze blowin'. If not, I am sunk :-) Added to ~ Sight and Sound ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ Wind In The Willows ~ Blackmore's Night

"Ivory Tower"

Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-))) Added to ~ Sight and Sound and AbsOrbed More messing 'bout in GIMP Photo Software :-) I was only goin' to add this to AbsOrbed but then I thought there is a tower here so I could also link this to "Ivory Tower" by Blackmore's Night :-) This shot features the Andrew Wiles Building and the Radcliffe Observatory (now part of Green Templeton College) topped by The Tower of Winds in Oxford. ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ Ivory Tower ~ Blackmore's Night

"Streets of London"

A slightly tenuous time for 'Sight & Sound' methinks :-) The Shard is in London Bridge Street. Last November we visited The Shard and I took a few shots in London Bridge Street including this one. So.....as this is a London street I think a musical link to "Streets of London" by Blackmore's Night from their Paris gig in 2006, would be okay :-) Added to ~ Sight and Sound Listen here ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ ~ Streets of London ~ Blackmore's Night Maybe, view on black :-)

"Diamonds & Rust"

~ Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-))) *****This was done using PhotoFunia***** From Wikipedia - "“Diamonds & Rust" is a song written and performed by Joan Baez. It was written in November 1974 and released in 1975. In the song, Joan recounts an out-of-the-blue phone call from an old lover, which sends her a decade back in time, to a "crummy” hotel in Greenwich Village; she recalls giving him a pair of cuff-links, and summarizes that memories bring "diamonds and rust." Joan has stated that the lyrics refer to her relationship with Bob Dylan." Here we go again re my all-time fave songs :-) I have so many all-time fave songs that it might appear that everything ever written is one of my all-time faves :-) But, in my humble opinion songs don't come much better than “Diamonds & Rust” :-) I have, so far, failed to create a suitable photo but after being introduced to 'PhotoFunia' by Karen (k.e.s_kloset) I think I have come up with a novel solution. Well, that is my logic here and I am sticking to it :-) So, “Diamonds are Forever” and “Rust Never Sleeps” becomes “Diamonds & Rust” :-)) I didn't think there could possibly be a better version than the original. However, I have been totally blown away by a live version by 'Blackmore's Night' where Candice Night takes the lead vocal. This version sends shivers up and down my spine :-) Added to ~ Soundtrack to Life Listen here ~ Diamonds & Rust ~ Blackmore's Night

"Temple of the King"

~ Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-))) Okay.............it's probably pretty obvious what is comin' :-) Yep, one of my slightly obscure links for 'Soundtrack to Life' :-) This is the Gothic Temple in Stowe Landscape Gardens. It dates from 1741 and would, surely, be fit for a King. Therefore, this links nicely to "Temple of the King" by Blackmore's Night. I currently don't have any Blackmore's Night music in my collection but I am about to remedy this oversight :-) Added to ~ Soundtrack to Life Listen here ~ Temple of the King ~ Blackmore's Night
