Cover of a well known song.

Sunrise. Composed by a contemporary of mine, with a nod to a contemporary of mine.

I was thinking when we were looking at the eclipse (through eclipse glasses) that we should listen to Thus Spake Zarathustra. Turned out we don't own it. I did have the 2001 soundtrack many moons ago but tossed it when tossing all my records. I'm moderately taken aback that neither my wife nor I had it on a Strauss disc, but neither of us has any Strauss either.

 

[Gus Mahler]

I think I had it on disc once upon a time, with other Strauss tone poems, but I wouldn't swear to it. I'll always marvel at how glorious the opening sounds, but then the rest of the piece is very dissonant and difficult to listen to. Can't have everything, I guess.

 

[Oldschoolbb]

Could you imagine this perfectly timed so Brain Damage ends right as the totality hit, Eclipse begins and then ends as the sun starts coming back out?

 

[Scud49]

Dean Martin - Mr Cool, so easy, so seemingly effortless:

 

[64Zcode]

Beware Of Darkness
A George Harrison song and my intent was to link the Concrete Blonde version.
However, I saw this version by Ann Wilson.

 

[Bigboote]

This one just popped into my head. I din’t think I’ve heard it in 30-40 years.

Darkness at the break of noon. . .
Eclipses both the sun and moon. . .
