This being Independence Day in the US, I was thinking of "My Country, 'Tis of Thee." It occured to me that it would be nice to have a Robert Prizeman arrangement of Libera singing "God Save the Queen."

Yikes, not 'God save the Queen'. I love 'I vow to thee my country', Libera has done such a good job with that song.
BTW, happy Independence Day.

I hear a sky-born music still:
It sounds from all things old,
It sounds from all things young,
From all that's fair, from all that's foul,
Peals out a cheerful song.'

When you miss me just look up to the night sky and remember, I'm like a star; sometimes you can't see me, but I'm always there.

Libera: with your voice like butter
It'll be divine if you sing more Rutter.

So I was listening to the radio and this song came on. Don't know if it would sound good w/ a treble choir but I think the boys would have fun singing it at least :D

They don't sound like they're from a northern town.

They should do more songs that Enya does. They did How can I keep from singing, granted its not her song. I think "Ebudae" would sound awesome.

Mr Prizeman should keep teaming up with Muramatsu they have done great work together so far

I have mentioned it a couple of times on the forum here but I will mention it again :lol: now; I would love to hear Libera do some of the better known tracks from Clannad; the Theme from Harry's game for example....

I reviewing "Watership Down" for a book group tomorrow and I wish they would sing Bright Eyes... I think Flynn would do an absolutely amazing job on the solo!

Since I listen to alot of rock on the radio, I keep hearing songs that they could cover. Keep On Loving You by REO Speedwagon would suit itself just fine to them, with one lyric change.

Ok, I have another one now that would be perfect for the boys to sing.
On Trans-Siberian Orchestra's 2nd cd, The Christmas Attic, there is a song called Christmas Canon, which, just like Sanctus, is based on Pachabel's Canon. Now, when TSO recorded this, they use the Childrens Choir of Saint Bartholomew's Church in New York City. TSO has also used The American Boy Choir as well.
Idealy, TSO should re-record Christmas Canon using Libera as the vocalists with RP directing.
