Back Home Again

29/07/2020

Hello citizens of tumblr city! It's Helena from the other side of the radio, and today we are going to find out what is my FAVORITE MUSIC! Well... At least I can try, right?

Define my favorite music is one of the most dificult tasks I can possibly think of. So I try combine the music with the feeling that the experience provides. The list stills too long to choose just one. I mean, there are classics from the origins of rock, ABBA hits, masterpieces of brazilan music, Magic from Pilot, Mr Blue Sky from Eletric Light Orchestra and the melodies of gospel music that can really touch our hearts. That´s just the beggining. 

Trying to combine all of that, something comes to my mind. Back Home Again is a beautiful song by John Denver that express some of his feeelings back on 1974. It became a hit and peacked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

For me, it reminds of one of my favorites Gaither Homecomigs, when many of the gratest singers of the american gospel music world got toghether to praise the Lord. This one is placed in a beaultiful location at the Colorado´s Red Rock Mountains. I watched the whole DVD friday after friday, celebrating the coming of saturday after the sunset. I loved all the songs of the show, but Back Home Again was absolutely the greatest for me, peformed by Woody Wright, Stephen Hill and Joy Gardner. The sweet country melody with the guitar sound, a mandolin and a country guitar playing in the back, completed with the touch of the harmonica, gave it a peacefull enviroment that´s a delight to hear.
