Always precious

Ten years ago, you were found precious. That's what you are, always. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:55, 3 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Sorry for my late reply (I have been offline), but thank you very much, Gerda Arendt! :-) Moisejp (talk) 15:32, 22 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hello again

edit

Hey there. I noticed that you have been active again on here, and I just wanted to drop by to say that I hope everything is going well with you. Aoba47 (talk) 19:44, 7 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi Aoba47! Thank you for your note. I hope you've been well. I was also going to say hello to you but I noticed you were taking a wikibreak, and although I didn't imagine you were too far offline or anything, I guess I hesitated about the best timing to reach out. One of these years when our timing meshes, we ought to collaborate on something, but right now unfortunately I have too much on my plate so I wouldn't be able to consider it right now. Anyways, take it easy and will talk to you again soon! Moisejp (talk) 05:50, 9 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for the response and the kind words. Apologies for being back-and-forth with my wikibreak. After several false starts with new projects in my sandbox, I recognized a real break was in order. I would love to collaborate with you on something in the future. The timing has not been great for me either to be honest. I also have a lot on my plate off-Wiki, and I just do not feel comfortable committing time and energy into projects on here for now. I will still pop in and out to to occasionally review FACs. I want to try and help nominators there to the best of my ability. I have received so much help and support from reviewers in that space over the years so I want to try my best to pay that forward. I hope you have a great rest of your week!

Butting in as a Moisej fan: welcome back dude for however long it might last. A random tune[1] and talk later. Ceoil (talk) 05:42, 10 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Ceoil, if you like that song, you'll love this one [2] (my recommendation of the week)! Seriously, though, I've listened to your recommendation twice and enjoyed it. My favourite bit is probably from 11:39 to about 12:30. Thanks for broadening my musical horizons! We shall chat again soon for sure! Moisejp (talk) 16:52, 11 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
♫ My mother had my sister learning Bach and Strauss / For years it was the only music in our house / But I got my guitar and I rearranged Bach / And came up with some good old folk and country rock [3] Moisejp (talk) 18:43, 11 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Apologies for looping back to this discussion. I have a quick question for you. I am tentatively working on the article for Bluebird of Happiness (a Tamar Braxton album). I have the physical album, and the liner notes only credit the writer and producer and point out samples/interpolations and label information. Since there is not any further information on the credits and personnel, I would not think a separate section would be necessary, but I wanted to double-check with you. Do you think that would be the correct approach? Aoba47 (talk) 21:17, 21 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi Aoba47, here [4] it lists quite a few producers. Is this more than what's listed on the physical album? But anyway, in general terms, I'd say a credits/personnel section is not absolutely necessary if there is not much info to list there. In part I think you're saying there are not individual musicians listed, which I agree would be a big part of a usual personnel section. :-) Moisejp (talk) 02:19, 22 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for the link and for the response. It is mostly the same information in the physical album. I was more so referencing that the liner notes do not go into specifics about things like mixing or recording or instruments. It only has information on who wrote and produced each individual song and does not go further than that. I just wanted to double-check as this kind of section seemed more or less expected for an album article, but since there is not enough information to support it, I will leave it out. I hope you are having a great start to your week! Aoba47 (talk) 02:38, 22 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

FAC

edit

Hello. I've nominated the Robert Johnson song "Cross Road Blues" as an FA candidate. I remember from "Watching the River Flow" that you are interested in blues. If you're so inclined, the review could use some more participants. Thanks. —Ojorojo (talk) 16:45, 21 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi Ojorojo, sure I can review it. :-) Moisejp (talk) 02:01, 22 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Talk page stalker...needs serious work but can be done...if your up for rewording also Moisejp I'll step in. Its such a great song. Ceoil (talk) 04:37, 23 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Reminder to self

edit

....Must stalk Mosie's edits closer, almost missed the FAC for Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands. Hey man, hope all is well. This week am mostly obsessed with the drums on [5], but could use hearing a few new tunes if you have any handy about. Ceoil (talk) 17:56, 7 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

My good pal Ceoil, ha, you flatter me with all your talk of stalking. :-) I'm well, thanks, hope you are too! I enjoyed that song you linked to, including the drums. I hope I don't sound like a boring one-interest pony always posting about this guy, but I absolutely adore the drums here [6]. The man has another version of the song that is overall possibly almost as good (not the drums tho), that I almost linked too as well, but don't want to bore you too much! ;-) When you said "drums" I thought of this song, but I'll try to think of some other groovy tunes by other artists to share with you. Moisejp (talk) 18:35, 7 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

I have several songs by this lady on my iTunes Top 100 playlist, dunno if you listen to her at all [7]. Moisejp (talk) 18:40, 7 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

I grew up with her always in the house, so thank you for tune. Re the recent Springsteen nominator; my fav tune is young Americans, which I see he already has at GA level. fingers crossed here he willl take to FAC. Speaking of which...[8]....from the same band,; the best ever Beatles cover[9] Ceoil (talk) 19:49, 7 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi Ceoil, I don't think I've ever listened to Bongwater before, but I really enjoyed both songs! David Byrne's been in the spotlight lately with all the promotion going on for the re-release of Stop Making Sense, so it was good timing to hear a tune partly about him. I'm a Heads fan, like lots of people, maybe you too. Never managed to see them live but I did see Byrne twice in the 90s and both were amazing shows, especially the first one. "Rain" is great stuff as well. I like "Young Americans", good song for sure. When I was in high school a friend asked me what my favourite Bowie song was, and I gotta say my answer is the same now: "Modern Love"! It may be glitzier than some of his classic 70s work but it's irresistible. That's cool you grew up with Dolly in the house; I'm sure there'd be warm, fuzzy memories around that. My mom never listened to her when I was a kid. In my wee years, at home there'd be a lot of reggae (Marley, Tosh, Harder They Come), folky stuff (Young, Mitchell), 70s rock (Who Are You, Ghost Writer, Street-Legal...). In 1978, when we were both small, my mom took my brother to see Dylan and me to see Marley. I didn't start listening to Dolly Parton till my 30s. You may well likely know this one, but here's a non-Breeders song I can't get enough of: [10]. Moisejp (talk) 03:24, 12 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi Ceoil, yeah, my wife (and kids) and I quite often don't see eye to eye regarding music. My wife was telling my younger one (who plays the piano) some songs she'd be thrilled if he learned to play. So I thought I'd chime in and ran this [12] for him on YouTube. I really like the piano on it and I thought it'd be a hip tune for him to play. Then my wife and kid both told me they thought the piano on this was horrible! :D Oh well, sometimes I succeed in expanding my kids' musical tastes, but it seems this wasn't one of them! ;-) Moisejp (talk) 05:48, 22 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
