Long Ago & Far Away - 8 Amazing Musicians! (1944) 1080p! #ProfHowdy

Long Ago & Far Away - 8 Amazing Musicians! (1944) 1080p! #ProfHowdy "Long Ago (and Far Away)" is a popular song from the 1944 Technicolor film musical Cover Girl starring Rita Hayworth and Gene Kelly and released by Columbia Pictures. The music was written by Jerome Kern, and the lyrics were written by Ira Gershwin. The song was published in 1944 and sold over 600,000 copies in sheet music in a year. In 2004 it finished #92 in AFI's 100 Years...100 Songs survey of top tunes in American cinema.

In the film, it is sung by Rita Hayworth to Gene Kelly, and later briefly reprised by Jinx Falkenburg. Charting versions were recorded almost simultaneously by Dick Haymes and Helen Forrest, Bing Crosby, Jo Stafford, and Perry Como.

Ever wonder why there could be so many versions of the same songs in the 1940s-1960s while today no one that I know of (and I know almost nothing of modern music) sings someone else’s music. Could it possibly have something to do with QUALITY? These songs can never be popular again (sadly) because of the change of WORLDVIEW in most people. There once was a strong Chr1st1an Worldview in America that once made this music possible even if the composers were non-Chr1st1an…

Easy listening (sometimes known as mood music) is a popular music genre and radio format that was most popular during the 1950s to 1970s. It is related to middle-of-the-road (MOR) music and encompasses instrumental recordings of standards, hit songs and popular non-rock vocals generally hit songs from the previous three decades & enhanced with mostly soft strings & Pops Orchestra. Easy Listening sounds had its origins between the Big Band Era & Rock & Roll. Studies have shown that more than half the population is tone-deaf & unable to distinguish the differences between “Easy Listening” music & “Elevator Music”. The main difference is the depth of instrumentation of the orchestra & PASSION!

Each one of us needs to look after the good of the people around us, asking ourselves, “How can I help?” That’s exactly what J.e.s.u.s did. He didn’t make it easy for Himself by avoiding people’s troubles but waded right in and helped out.
