KIMCHEE Origin or title of House of the Rising Sun? (184* d) RE: Origin or title of House of the Rising Sun? 25 Aug 05


INTERESTING AS AN HISTORY PROFESSOR WE HAD IN A UNIVERSITY CLASS, WE WERE TOLD IT WAS A HISTORY LESSON AND THE SONG WAS FIRST INTRODUCED DURING THE UNITED STATES WAR BETWEEN THE STATES FROM 1860-1865. SINCE WE ARE ON THAT SUBJECT - YOU NORTH AMERICANS (YANKS) GOT ALL EXCITED WHEN YOU FIRST HEARD THE RECORDING GROUP CALLING THEMSELVES THE TOYS AND YOU LOVED "LOVERS CONCERTO" - UNFORTUNATELY, IT WAS IN MUSICAL FORM A JOHANN S. BACH. CHECK IT OUT - A LOT OF OUR "HIT" POP SONGS HAVE EMERGED AND/OR COME FROM SOME OF THE GREAT MASTERS - CHECK THEM OUT, ONLY THING WILL HAPPEN IS YOU WILL BE GREATLY SURPRISED/AMUSED/SHOCKED AT WHERE THEY CAME FROM BEFORE HITTING THE TOP NIFTY-TOP FIFTY.
