Claire Crosby – Can’t Help Falling In Love
An evening pause: A wonderful cover of one of Elvis Presley’s most beautiful songs. From the comments: “Elvis Presley looking down from heaven with tears in his eyes and his hand on his heart.”

The Eagles – New Kid in Town
Atom – The Great Gig in the Sky
Respighi – Ancient Airs and Dances, Suite 2, movements 3-4
An evening pause: The first two movements are wonderful too, so if you want, start this from the beginning. I begin it at movement three only because that movement is to me one of the most powerful pieces of music I have ever heard. The mix of low and high notes I think creates vibrations that touch the soul. And the melody ain’t bad either.
Sean Altman – They tried to kill us, we survived, let’s eat
