Mr. Tambourine Man (1965) – Bob Dylan

Prelude, Op. 28, No. 15 Raindrop (1838) – Frédéric Chopin
Prelude, Op. 28, No. 15 Raindrop is the second entry from Chopin here after Etud Op 10 No. 3. When hearing this you realize how small you are in the world and wonder in confoundment at the pure beauty of…

Most of the Time (1989) – Bob Dylan
It is befitting Most of the Time is the first song to be presented from Bob Dylan’s Oh Mercy record, because it is my favourite song from it. If the outtake Series of Dreams made it onto the record, then…
More Than Life (2004) – Hillsong
More Than Life is from the album For All You’ve Done released in July, 2004. This is another great worship song from this magnificent album and concert which I’ve written about often. I like one viewer’s comment about this album…
