My blue Heaven by Gene Austin

This is just another slow song that just appeals to me for some reason. This song is very comforting. His voice, the words, the music it all just feels so calming. This song honestly is going on the playlist I use to go to sleep. I like this man's voice. This is another song that you can feel his soul in his work. even just the little sounds he makes throughout the song sound so sincere. You can feel his Euphoria through the recording. I really enjoy the repetition in the song. I feel like in most songs the repeated verse gets too much, but this one fits very well. All the words just flow so well too. I like the image he paints a warm fireplace, his wife and his daughter all close together. I feel like the music can be overbearing at times, but it is more so the volume. I think if it were a little more quiet it would be perfect. It definitely brings the song together with all the long pauses with nothing, but the music. the slow piano hitting just the individual notes and holding them at times helps emphasize his words too which is perfect. This song is a total bop. I just really enjoy songs where you can feel the person who made it, and this song has that very song.

    I think you are right about how comforting this song is, he really does show lots of soul and emotion while singing this song. This song might be better if the volume was lower, however I think that it is good to have a unique sound even if it is not ideal for the sake of listening to something different so I would not want to change it if I could. :)

    I agree with how calming this song really is. Its funny how you said you would add this song to a sleep playlist because I was thinking the same thing. This song almost puts me to sleep listening to it, but in a good way. I also agree with how you said you can really feel the person who made it, Gene really put a lot of effort and emotion into this song.

    I totally agree with what you said, the music it self is very calm and relaxing. I also think the same way that the repetition in this song is just at the right amount. I also feel like most moderns have too much repetition that it just makes the song sounds plain and boring. The flow of this song is the reason that makes it one of the greatest. Great post!!

 Firstly, this song is a freaking bop. This is one of those songs that has passed the test of time and people still listen to it today in spite of it being so long ago. This song is one of the most popular cover songs too. I feel like this is one a lot of people have a good voice for and choose to sing it. People realize how iconic and good this song truly is. I personally really enjoy it. I do think that this song is kinda played too much though. It has just gotten overplayed throughout the many years it has been released, but that does not detract from the song itself though. I think one of the reasons this is so popular is just the universal appeal. The sound isn't super specific to a time period or genre so that allows it to keep appealing to people.  I also think that the sound being slower and kinda gently allows everyone just to chill. The lyrics also play a role. I think that they are chill enough that if people don't want to think about what it really means then they ...
