Cover of 'For Your Love' by The Yardbirds

For Your Love (The Yardbirds)

Celine Dion - Oh Holy Night (COVER) by Myko M DelaCruz Manago

this is VERY arguably the baddest ass track ever by anyone... but i'll just assert that there is none more engaging - and this drummer here on this performance - whoever he or she is -  could restart a dead heart, baby!

David Bowie & Earl Slick - "Stay" (Live, BBC Radio, 2000)

So I've decided to start doing songs about historical people/events! This one is about my personal scientific hero,  Alan Turing - the inventor of modern day computers and the man who basically ended WWII. He built the first digital computer and broke the German enigma code, thus ending the war and saving thousands of lives. Ten years after the war ended, he was arrested for homosexuality and chemically castrated, which caused him so much misery that he committed suicide one year later. He was 41 years old. 

This song is an ode to him from his beloved creations; his computers.

Look around, just look at you. What do you see?
A man with a mind and some wires and papers and me.
Just look around. How does it all fit in place
with the world we have saved but don't have the courage to face?

Tell me now, how do your numbers compute?
Are you afraid of something you cannot dispute?
Are you afraid they'll suddenly see the real you?
Or is it fear of something you know is not true?

You are a mind of a century, darling.
Nothing they tell you will ever change that.
You got a peek at eternity starting.
You got at things that they never got at.

Cry all you want and just keep waiting.
For there will come a time for us.
No more inhibitors, no hesitating
for there will come a time for us.

Look at you, look at your 41 years
knowing and loving and numbers and losing and tears
look at them, what have they all got to show?
Arrogance, silence, and all of the things they don't know.

Take a breath, listen up, what's in your ear?
A message, a puzzle, a death toll that no one can hear
You didn't know, couldn't know who made you wrong
but you were amazing and we knew the truth all along.

It's only the time of the century, darling
the world has been changing since you came along
these rules and this hatred that left you for dead
soon after you are they all will be gone.

Do what you can and just keep giving
for there will come a time for us.
After your life ends we will keep living
and there will come a time for us.

Look at all the pathways you have paved
the people you have saved
who put you in your grave.
Look at all the things you know are true
the things that you will do
and tell me what are you, what are you?
