Anther one of my favorites is (originally) a “plainchant” piece: “Of the Father’s Love Begotten”.
This version is not (technically) plainchant, but it is lovely.
It also is easy to find in Latin, which makes it excellent soothing, not-as-distracting music.
I hope you have a good Saturday.

Hiya, Fluffsters!
I figured I’d jump on board with Fluffy’s series of “less common seasonal songs” with one I shared last year. It’s the “Christmas Donkey” song. Hence the title of “Christmas Donkey Edition”.
Yeah, about that title…
Wait. “They aren’t all good edition”?
Fluffy, did you change it?
I decline to state.
…
Anyway. Yup. Here it is again.
Enjoy!(?)

I am continuing the series on “Less Common Songs for the Season.” Today’s is another non-English song: Noel Nouvelet. I discovered this one last year, actually, and it has become one of my favorite less common seasonal songs to listen to nearly repeatedly.
There are two versions I am sharing today; they each have their own, separate feel.
The first is slightly slower, more mysterious, and beautifully haunting:
The other is another King’s Singers song version.
I hope you enjoy.
Have a lovely Wednesday.

I know it is normally bad form to interrupt a series after only a single day of it. However, this is absolutely worth it. Trust me.
A favorite music group of mine (Two Steps from Hell) released a Christmas Medley recently. (About two weeks ago, to be precise.) Thus, it is worth sharing.
It is made of more common songs. However, it is one of the best Christmas Medleys I have ever heard. (Possibly in part because they do not include “Silent Night.”)
I especially appreciate what they did with “O Holy Night.”
I hope you enjoy.

Now it is in the Christmas Season. Therefore, music recommendations are permissible.
To start off with, there is a beautiful King’s Singers version of Gaudete. What may make it even better for you is that it is not in English. Thus, for those of you who cannot work while English-lyric pieces are playing, you can still play this in the background.
Happy First of December!

I think I may be obligated to inform you that there is a new Marvel trailer out.
It is for the upcoming Captain America: Civil War movie.
The video is below.
I am not particularly thrilled about this. It looks like it will once again be a ham-handed political commentary that most people will not even recognize, per usual with the Captain America movies.
Take “Winter SOldier”, for example. That was clearly a discussion of the tradeoffs between moderate Liberal Internationalism, and over-the-top, taken-to-its-extremes to the point of almost being a Straw Man representation of International Realism. (In case you could not tell, I found that movie annoying. However, I have only seen it once. It is possible that it is not as bad (philosophically speaking) as I am remembering.)
Thus, my obligatory presentation of the trailer. I am not especially excited for this movie; I expect that there will once more be unfair, ham-handed misrepresentations of political theory for the purpose of exploring Hollywood’s philosophical preferences. Worse, people are going to love it.
Have a nice Friday.

Hiya, Fluffsters!
So, I encountered the Star Wars 7 “TV Spot” the other day. And it’s really creepy.
I mean, LISTEN TO IT!!!
“I’ve lived long enough to see the same eyes in different people”? Are eye-transplants that common where the narrator’s from? Like, is she advertising a new technology? “New today! Sign up to be an EYE DONOR!”
Yeah. I’m not entirely sure what Disney was doing with THAT one.
Have a lovely Tuesday! (If possible.)

Hiya, Fluffsters!
So, apparently there was some sort of music award yesterday or something. I’m not sure what the occasion was. But, The Pentatonix (a fairly famous singing-group) ended up being featured for a Star Wars Tribute piece. And it was well done!
Have a lovely Monday.

Hiya, Fluffsters!
So, this is what I’m listening to while writing this. I love this piece. I’m fairly sure it’s been shared before on this blog, but it’s always worth re-listening to. So, enjoy! And have a lovely weekend.

Hi, Fluffsters!
So. I have some disturbing news for you. Apparently, there are vegetables among us who desire to spook some of our furred companions. Furthermore, they are apparently incredibly stealthy.
I have found footage of such events occurring.
You have been warned.
