MidNight Gems-Undiscovered, Underrated and Forgotten Songs vol.40 "Heavenly 40 - Special Edition"

For those of you that are new to my MidNight Gems series. Welcome to this nightly trip on which we will uncover & recover some amazing songs & covers. Tonight we will have a very special 40th Edition..... Where I will be playing my heroes and heroins.....and will keep playing till the end of time...or at least till the end of this cold night. Starting with an acoustic version of "The Asphalt World" & "Europe Is Our Playground" from one of Brett's Solo appearances. 1. Brett Anderson Acoustic - The Asphalt World https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beMfuCPK4nU If you liked that one you might wanna listen to a full set Live at the Queen Elizabeth Hall......if that didn´t spark a flame...it must be very cold...winter is coming. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeIQ2CmlsBM&t=1040s But Tori´s winter can warm me up any day. The first song I ever heard from this Lady...and probably still one of the best. And the way she looks here is exactly how she looked when I saw her live...soooo many winters ago. 2. Tori Amos - Winter (Live) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmk0AVNRBIY To prove, I am truly an 80`s baby here we go with two **cold** war hero´s 3. Sting - Russians https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHylQRVN2Qs Mr. Billy Joel ... I must have been like 12 when I received his greatest hits album.....but it did not contain his greatest hit....for me that´s the next one. 4. Billy Joel - Leningrad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgD_-dRZPgs Before Billy J. I grew up on the Bat out of Hell Album, must have played it over 1000 times and still I guess that my favorite Jim Steinman & Meatloaf song was the next one...again one that was not on my album. 5. Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman - Objects in the Rear View Mirror https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SF15vfMxoQ I'd just like to say that Jim Steinman and Meatloaf are both incredible artists, but when they get together they are literally greater than the sum of their parts. Thank heaven I lived to experience them together. Mr. Boombastic and I ain't talking Shaggy And in Memorium of Jim we will just share one more magical moment...and yes this one was one the Album 6. Meat Loaf Live With MSO - For Crying Out Loud https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6Cik61A6lM For crying out loud, I'll miss you Jim Steinman. Go back with the angels. We will keep you alive down here on earth as your music lives on. Omg I am such an Imbecile for forgetting about this song for so many years....but it´s in style for tonights festivity. 7. Mike Batt & Roger Chapman - Imbecile https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjNUPhIrt24 Well let´s pick up the pace a bit tonight like thunder and beyond the speed of sound..that was this, the first song I ever heard from the magical Ayreon. I listened the cd single once.... bought it and played for so many years. 8. Ayreon - Sail Away To Avalon (The Final Experiment) 1995 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQ7tJlY8qpo Were those wasted years? IDK but music has been so important in my life....my whole life till I reached 33 was built on great music... friends, festivals and DJ gigs. 9. Iron Maiden - Wasted Years https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ij99dud8-0A The older I got the darker my taste had become....still tonight will be mainly about the classics..... but some of those classics sound great if Now Artists pick them up and tweak them a bit. 10. Violet Orlandi ft @Melodicka Bros - In The Air Tonight https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuLr0QmdN899rTMCpAveJaw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=npp_zOrau0w After Tonight Life will never be the same again.... When I first heard the next song I was sold.....it kicked my alternative rock/metal ass into some darker niches. 11. L'Âme Immortelle - Life will never be the same again https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMobKJKuFqc For my hardcore followers yes you two know who I mean these girls have been part of our journey....and probably will pass by in some shape of form tonight 12. Sharon den Adel from Within Temptation and the Gathering's Anneke van Giersbergen with The Metropole Orchestra - Somewhere (The Best Duet Ever) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScjEJRIZGvg That´s an instant classic....just like this is an all-time classic and an all-time favorite of mine....I even dressed up as Mr. Michael Hutchence....well the dead version including a belt around my neck. 13. INXS - Never Tear Us Apart https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIBv2GEnXlc This takes me back to my childhood and this late 80s song...yes very well known but a gem anyway. 14. Simple Minds - Belfast Child https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vhhTvcLoRw Let´s keep it Celtic and get back to those angelic voices...still not sure what it is but Celtic always catches my ear...would I have ever led a life on that beautiful Isle? 15. The Voice - Celtic Woman (Lisa Kelly Ft. Susan McFadden) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xF9kcKR2-r8 Okay, okay we can do one more of those gorgeous Irish Ladies 16. Highwayman - Loreena Mckennit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ixi4jz0Gn4E These sounds are like a river sweeping me along like an Orinoco Flow.... If you´re not from South America did you ever wonder what this Orinoco flow was.... I did not for over 30 years till now... "The *Orinoco* River *flows* across South America. It is about 1,300 miles long and goes through parts of Venezuela, Colombia and Brazil." 17. Enya - Orinoco Flow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTrk4X9ACtw This brings me to really the first English song I can remember from my early childhood....and it took me 18 years to figure out what it was called and whom had performed it....that´s what you get without internet. But to not sound too old, lets play a slightly more modern version. 18. Dana Winner - Moonlight Shadow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUMk_37VFHg Talking about being too old.... I know it´s corny but I think Forever Young is the one they can play at my funeral. It´s pretty much what I live by...I am ageless I will be forever young. Let´s listen to a little bit of this guilty pleasure performed by my other guilty pleasure. 19. The Killers - Forever Young (cover) Live https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2CZWM84b2k OMG I am making it so hard on myself allowing myself only one Killers song... I guess it has to be this one. **Why?** Because I wanted to be a runaway at 13, I left home at 18 and I left my country at 28.... I will probably be a runaway for life. 20. The Killers - Runaways https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMbyWSGYUgc But what would you expect, who wants to remain seated in this mad world? I wanted to explore, not to be held back.... and so I did.... did it all by myself.... something I said as a little kid... "Do it Self". Guess I got what I asked for...and more. 21. Hardwell feat. Jake Reese - Mad World https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuCGE6Sl27w In my whole DJ career, I played very few trance/dance events but I did love playing a little set and see the crowd go....some of these songs are just so high energy. Still I am old school I need a good voice and lyrics to really get me excited. 22. Keane - Sovereign Light Café (Afrojack Remix) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZogGIeNALY&t=84s This is probably my fav. remix in the world next to Pendulum doing Prodigy´s Voodoo people of course. Keane on AfroJacks steroids...but not sure if it would ever get close to the first song I ever heard by VNV Nation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQEBzauVIlA 23. VNV Nation - Kingdom https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4G7JFJB52cw&list=OLAK5uy_mxs11xCeabUvnjMhZd3oyTmasI-02Oc5I&index=2 We are all in this Kingdom together but we all leave the party by ourself. 24. APOPTYGMA BERZERK - IN THIS TOGETHER https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=reZmbazjn1g And when we leave...when we go into the light...or not will we have that one moment of clarity....or will we get our Therapy in the afterlife? 25. Therapy? - A Moment Of Clarity https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIyKgzTum0w How it would be if the afterlife was known...if somebody would come back and tell us what´s waiting for us....it would be a hell of a boring stay on earth. 26. Life of Agony - How It Would Be  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AxCttqLFM7E My hero Keith Kaputo, I really been following Keith from when the river ran red and it only got worse...before it got better but boy can he/she sing. Joining up with Within Temptation is probably not the best song for either ...but such a cool combo. 27. Within Temptation - What Have You Done (Videoclip) ft. Keith Caputo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKwrgWkur00 Another band I have been following from the start...the next step in Now Metal ...the only now Metal I still listen Now. 28. Linkin Park (feat. Kiiara)- Heavy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dmQ3QWpy1Q&list=PLlqZM4covn1H69IAGko-oNj0lubezFQms&index=6 Staying with greatness this combo was amazing.... I saw Eminem years ago because I was afraid he would get killed like many rappers got those days....and ft. Ed Ed & Eddy who honestly is also a modern day Icon. 29. Eminem - River ft. Ed Sheeran https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BXDsVD6O10 Keeping in the flow we have an other boss that wrote a little song about a river. Again I had the vinyl Born in the USA Album ....played it like forever....but this song was not on it¿? 30. Bruce Springsteen - The River https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAB4vOkL6cE To stick with the classics an other band I grew up on ....and that made me chose between Telgraph Road and this one...guess I am still an old romantic geeck. 31. Dire Straits - Romeo And Juliet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rC95MEenIxA Oh baby Bay it´s a wild world....I know and it wouldn´t benothing without a Lady or a girl. Couldn´t skip that old Cat. 32. Yusuf / Cat Stevens – Lady D'Arbanville (Official Music Video) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzZjw-lVpYY Not a big Everlast fan at all...but when they got the support from Carlos....they became a one day wonder in my book....while Carlos of course is an all-time hero. 33. Santana - Put Your Lights On ft. Everlast https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCBS5EtszYI I wanted to play so much more Latin songs...but I guess they haveto wait till an other article because I need to start ending this trip with some super groups.... and who would have thought these heroin junkies would create so much greatness. 34. RHCP - Road Trippin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ozhjdj3ALo&list=PLiN-7mukU_RGm3gXXR0MXtZ5ynTioL05I&index=15 Greatness indeed, but still not heavenly....although the next one came very close. 35. Led Zeppelin - Stairway To Heaven https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkF3oxziUI4 What would have be like...would it be like: And in the naked light I saw Ten thousand people, maybe more People talking without speaking People hearing without listening People writing songs that voices never share And no one dare Disturb the sound of silence 36. Disturbed - The Sound Of Silence https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9Dg-g7t2l4 Or would it sound more like these two Dutch Superstars....well can I call Henk a superstar...IDK but he deserves it, 37. Floor Jansen & Henk Poort - Phantom Of The Opera https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=plCScjvDOJM If you ask me , I expect heaven to sound like Therion....this is the band I have seen more times than any other band and I would not mind seeing them 20 more times. 38. Therion - Rise Of Sodom And Gomorrah https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_NtCdMdGrg Or is heaven a place where a bearfoot girl called Anite plays cello? May god Janus...really even if you don´t understand aword of it...listen to these German Guys an be amazed. 39. Janus - Anita spielt Cello https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i41aefRd5eU Or would heaven be: Up those stone steps I climb Hail this joyful day's return Into its great shadowed vault I go Hail the Pentecostal morn The reading is from Luke 24 Where Christ returns to his loved ones I look at the stone apostles Think that it's alright for some https://genius.com/4499812/Nick-cave-and-the-bad-seeds-brompton-oratory/Up-those-stone-steps-i-climb-hail-this-joyful-days-return-into-its-great-shadowed-vault-i-go https://genius.com/7051653/Nick-cave-and-the-bad-seeds-brompton-oratory/Hail-the-pentecostal-morn https://genius.com/4499815/Nick-cave-and-the-bad-seeds-brompton-oratory/The-reading-is-from-luke-24-where-christ-returns-to-his-loved-ones https://genius.com/7268620/Nick-cave-and-the-bad-seeds-brompton-oratory/I-look-at-the-stone-apostles-think-that-its-alright-for-some No God up in the sky No devil beneath the sea Could do the job that you did, baby Of bringing me to my knees Outside I sit on the stone steps With nothing much to do Forlorn and exhausted, baby By the absence of *heaven* 40. Nick Cave - Brompton Oratory https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dE-CNGmDoBs This is the end of my heavenly 40 ...not sure if I ever will do a playlist this huge.....maybe when we reach the 100st edition........ What the fluff are midnight gems? https://read.cash/@BitcoinBaby/the-best-covers-you-probably-never-heard-midnight-gems-vol10-cover-love-eb436a0c#what-the-fluff-are-midnight-gems Somewhere lost in time, trying to escape out of the rabbit hole back into the rat race there is a vacuum..... that´s the place where midnight gems are found. My Midnight Gems will try to uncover & recover those beautiful songs that nobody ever noticed or might have been forgotten. Who the fluff am I? https://read.cash/@BitcoinBaby/the-best-covers-you-probably-never-heard-midnight-gems-vol10-cover-love-eb436a0c#who-the-fluff-am-i Being a former DJ playing about everything and having an uncompleted study of radio journalism. I have been wanting to do this for years....Thought about it many nights and guess now it´s time to finally take it to the streets. Hope you enjoyed this slightly confronting wave of amazing music and you still feel like joining me on the next special edition trip as vol.40 of Midnight Gems is coming soon. **Previous Released Midnight Gems:** https://read.cash/@BitcoinBaby/midnight-gems-undiscovered-underrated-and-forgotten-songs-vol9-international-little-gems-dc2f98b0#previous-released-midnight-gems ****MidNight Gems -
