YANNI - Nostalgia (Live at the Acropolis-Athens)HD,HQ Sound

Yiannis
Chrysomallis(Greek: Γιάννης Χρυσομάλλης,born November 14, 1954), known
professionally as Yanni, is a Greek pianist, keyboardist, composer, and
music producer who has spent his adult life in the United States.
Yanni
continues to use the musical shorthand that he developed as a
child,blending jazz, classical, soft rock, and world music to create
predominantly instrumental works.As this genre of music was not well
suited for commercial pop radio and music television,Yanni achieved
international recognition by producing concerts at historic monuments
and by producing videos that were broadcast on public television.His
breakthrough concert, Yanni Live at the Acropolis, yielded the second
best-selling music video of all time. Additional historic sites for
Yanni's concerts have included India's Taj Mahal, China's Forbidden
City, the United Arab Emirates' Burj Khalifa,Russia's Kremlin,Puerto
Rico's El Morro castle,and Lebanon's ancient city of Byblos.
At
least fourteen of Yanni's albums have peaked at #1 in Billboard's "Top
New Age Album" category,and two albums (Dare to Dream and In My Time)
received Grammy nominations.Through late 2011, Yanni had performed live
in concert before more than two million people in more than 20 countries
around the world, and has accumulated more than 35 platinum and gold
albums globally, with sales totaling over 20 million copies.A longtime
fundraiser for public television,Yanni's compositions have been used on
commercial television programs, especially for sporting events such as
the Tour de France, World Figure Skating Championships, U. S. Open
Tennis Championships, U. S. Open Golf Championships, and Olympic
Games.He has written film scores and the music for an award-winning
British Airways television commercial.
Yanni has employed
musicians of various nationalities, and has incorporated a variety of
instruments from around the world,to create music that has been called
an eclectic fusion of ethnic sounds.Influenced by his encounters with
cultures around the world,his music is said to reflect his "one world,
one people" philosophy.

176..video IF I CLOSE MY EYES FOREVER - OZZY OSBOURNE & LITA FORD
"Close My Eyes Forever"
Baby
I get so scared inside, and I don't really understand
Is it love that's on my mind, or is it fantasy?
Heaven
Is in the palm of my hand, and it's waiting here for you
What am I supposed to do with a childhood tragedy?
If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain unchanged?
If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain the same?
Sometimes
It's hard to hold on
So hard to hold on to my dreams
It isn't always what it seems
When you're face to face with me
You're like a dagger
And stick me in the heart
And taste the blood from my blade
And when we sleep, would you shelter me
In your warm and darkened grave?
If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain unchanged?
If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain the same?
Will you ever take me?
No, I just can't take the pain
But would you ever trust me?
No, I'll never feel the same, Oh
I know I've been so hard on you
I know I've told you lies
If I could have just one more wish
I'd wipe the cobwebs from my eyes
If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain unchanged?
If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain the same?
Close your eyes
I get so scared inside, and I don't really understand
Is it love that's on my mind, or is it fantasy?
Heaven
Is in the palm of my hand, and it's waiting here for you
What am I supposed to do with a childhood tragedy?
If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain unchanged?
If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain the same?
Sometimes
It's hard to hold on
So hard to hold on to my dreams
It isn't always what it seems
When you're face to face with me
You're like a dagger
And stick me in the heart
And taste the blood from my blade
And when we sleep, would you shelter me
In your warm and darkened grave?
If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain unchanged?
If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain the same?
Will you ever take me?
No, I just can't take the pain
But would you ever trust me?
No, I'll never feel the same, Oh
I know I've been so hard on you
I know I've told you lies
If I could have just one more wish
I'd wipe the cobwebs from my eyes
If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain unchanged?
If I close my eyes forever
Will it all remain the same?
Close your eyes

- Ford recorded this as a duet with Ozzy Osbourne, and the pair wrote the song together. Ford was once engaged to Tony Iommi, who played guitar with Osbourne in Black Sabbath. Ford, along with Joan Jett, was in the all-girl teenaged rock group The Runaways from 1975-1979. Her time with the band honed her skills as a songwriter, guitarist and performer.
- The song came about by accident during a night of drinking and getting stoned when Lita was being managed by Ozzy's wife, Sharon. She recalled to Metal Underground: "Close My Eyes Forever was a mistake. It was just me and Ozzy and Sharon hanging about in the recording studio. They showed up one day and had a housewarming present for me: a life-size duplicate of Koko the gorilla from the San Diego Zoo. It was freaking huge – I had to strap it in the front seat of my jeep to get it home. Ozzy stayed, Sharon got bored and left, and me and Ozzy had a couple of drinks and we were jamming. We started singing, messing about and we wrote 'Close My Eyes Forever.'
Next thing I knew the sun was coming up. I looked at him and went, 'Uh-oh, we're in trouble.' Sharon had been waiting all night. We were a long way from where Ozzy had to go. He said, 'Can you drive me home?' I said, 'No, I can't.' We were stoned out of our minds. He got into a cab and I strapped Koko into my jeep and drove home – just barely made it. And then we had this hit song." - This was the only Top 10 hit of Ozzy's solo career, although he did reach #4 UK with the Black Sabbath song "Paranoid." Ozzy's fans tended to buy entire albums instead of just the singles.
- This song was included on Lita Ford's third solo album, Lita. Produced by Mike Chapman, it was a breakthrough for Ford, whose first hit came with the album's first single, "Kiss Me Deadly." The songs charted a year apart, with "Kiss Me Deadly" peaking in June, 1988 and "Close My Eyes Forever" in June of the following year. Both songs were driven by MTV exposure, with the photogenic Ford appealing to the network's core audience of young males.
- Another Lita/Ozzy connection: Ford's drummer, Randy Castillo, left her band to join Ozzy's in 1985.
