Anyone else find this song a bit "Camino-ish"...?

[simply B]

For whatever reason it transported me back to the Way and dealing with the absence from my bride and home....and the revelations of the Meseta.

Just curious as it came up on the playlist as I was preparing dinner.

[Davey Boyd]

Yes I can see that. At first I thought 'this really is not my thing' but it grew on me and it is actually a beautiful song.

Funny when you are just getting along doing your thing at home and something suddenly gives you a camino flashback!

 

[KinkyOne]

Huh, for me Meseta-ish would be something like this:

Seriously!

 

[KinkyOne]

But for the whole Camino (any Camino) definitely this would one of the top10:

Thats Hornillos in the background isn't it?

Wonderful! How fantastic is that!

[Davey Boyd]

This one is for the mountains. Sing this on the way to Orisson or O'Cebreiro

You don't want to get me started with Rosalia de Castro, Gitano or some other gypsy/flamenco/klezmer music etc.

Another cracker. I'm gonna have to look into this band a bit more!

Thanks!

was it you that introduced me to Hiye Kaya Mein - Maati Baani Ft. Mooralala Marwada?

Huh, I don't think so

 

[Davey Boyd]

Huh, I don't think so

Someone here did! Try this Kinky, sends shivers down my spine!

 

[KinkyOne]

For Bierzo and especially Galicia I would recommend this one:

I guess you all remember THAT movie

 

[KinkyOne]

Some people here already suggested we should walk a Camino together but if we won't do that for whatever reason for next 30 years I think that after those years we can at least sit at the table together, order "something" and listen to:

 

[Camino Chrissy]

I'm too tired to listen to all the songs tonight, guys. But I told you recently you should walk a camino together. This is another example of why...it's not just about the beer.

 

[KinkyOne]

Someone here did! Try this Kinky, sends shivers down my spine!

Ooops, sorry...
Whatever music+India=no go for me. Shivers in completely different way ...

 

[Camino Chrissy]

Ha...it was me was me before and me just now!

 

[KinkyOne]

Apropos that "India" clip I want to emphasize that I do not hate/despise etc. any kind of music. Some sounds just don't get well together with my ears or brains or whatever. This one sure does although I don't really know how to connect it to Camino

You believed me? Oh, yes I can connect it to the Camino

This one I find definitely Camino-ish. Even the title:

I was an early riser on the Camino (5am) so for the first 8 km or more I would see no other pilgrim on the way . I would sing this , happy out till I found a Bar for a coffee

 

[Turga]

This one I find definitely Camino-ish. Even the title:

Yes! Total Gods of the guitar!

 

[Turga]

And this one ‘Walk with me’ which is about that there are ‘tantos Caminos por andar’ and if ‘tu quisieras andar conmigo’…

Hay tanto que quiero contarte
Hay tanto que quiero saber de ti
Ya podemos empezar poco a poco
Cuéntame, qué te trae por aquí

No te asustes de decirme la verdad
Eso nunca puede estar así tan mal
Yo también tengo secretos para darte
Y que sepas que ya no me sirven más

Hay tantos caminos por andar

Dime si tu quisieras andar conmigo
Cuéntame si quisieras andar conmigo
Dime si tu quisieras andar conmigo
Cuéntame si quisieras andar conmigo

Estoy ansiosa por soltarlo todo
Desde el principio hasta llegar al día de hoy
Una historia tengo en mi para entregarte
Una historia todavía sin final

Podríamos decirnos cualquier cosa
Incluso darnos para siempre un siempre no
Pero ahora frente a frente, aquí sentados
Festejemos que la vida nos cruzó

Hay tantos caminos por andar

Dime si tu quisieras andar conmigo
Cuéntame si quisieras andar conmigo
Dime si tu quisieras andar conmigo
Cuéntame si quisieras andar conmigo

Si quisieras andar conmigo

I love this forum! Whilst enjoying the videos posted here I received a WhatsApp from my dearest friend who has this morning walked the first kms of the Ruta de la Lana. She should have walked with me earlier in the year but family issues prevented her from doing so. And then I receive messages from two other camino buddies. All these wonderful people I have met through this forum, and many others I haven’t had the privilege of meeting but who feel like friends.

As a youngster I didn’t really extend my music tastes beyond Tamla Motown and am always keen to expand my horizons. I love some of these whacky links, please keep them coming. And it was on this forum, many years ago that I first discovered the beautiful voice of Israel Kamakawiwoʻole. And, coincidentally, I saw John Mayall in concert in Málaga last year.

Thank you

I think if you listen to the original and definitive version that Bob sings I think you would agree it is far superior. One of the many, many wonders of the music of Dylan is the ability for other artists to interpret his music. One of the best at this was Rod Stewart. I think you would enjoy listening. You could also here Elvis' country influenced version or the great Odetta Holmes' kinda folksy/delta blues version. She has a wonderous voice. Elvis is too bad either! But of course there is only one universal treasure that is Bob.

 

[simply B]

What a massive return of musical exposure from a simple question! my ears need to get out more...

[Camino Chrissy]

Hey, Kinky and Davey...
Was it either one of you who introduced me to the song by Supercali Fragilistic Expielidocious?

 

[Laundoner]

I like The Proclaimers - I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) because el Camino Francés os indeed 500 miles, although my daughter says that the choice is too cheesy.

 

[KinkyOne]

Me definitely not. Never heard of it...

Cheesy it might be, but who cares? Great group! I will now have to look for my double cd of the Best Scottish Ever...

 

[Turga]

And just for the heck of it ....

 

[Derrybiketours]

After cold shower, sleep deprivation, tired limbs and empty belly waking up before crack of dawn and heading off with lightness of foot with my staff, Paddy listening to this and understanding every word despite not speaking Irish but feeling every note as the samhradh rises and Beltane embraces the night

 

[K Turner]

I'm on the CF now and could talk for ages about my Camino playlist! Here's a slower one, for the more difficult times that make me question why I'm even doing this. It helps me keep perspective and not give up.

Matt Nathanson
Little Victories

This time
I'll be sailing
No more bailing boats for me
I'll be out here on the sea
Just my confidence and me

And I'll be awful sometimes
Weakened to my knees
But I'll learn to get by
On the little victories

This time
I'll have no fear
I'll be standing strong and tall
Turn my back towards them all

And I'll be awful sometimes
Weakened to my knees
But I'll learn to get by
Yeah I'll learn to get by
On the little victories

And if the world decides to catch up with me
It's a little victory

 

[Roland49]

But for the whole Camino (any Camino) definitely this would one of the top10:

I have seen them live performing.
Great!

 

[chinacat]

@KinkyOne

This one’s for you ...

 

[chinacat]

This is even better, but requires a little patience at the beginning

I saw them perform this in a small theatre, with a small audience .... we were all transfixed ... and time stood still ...

 

[Camino Chrissy]

 

[Derrybiketours]

That last contribution from @chinacat reminds of those energy vampires you meet and can't get away from quick enough. At one stage thought I was in Jesus Y Maria in Pamplona lying awake listening too the howling dog's although the last 3 minutes did get better

I saw this band perform an intimate gathering in my local city, we were transfixed and my energy levels were restored and it's music too walk any part of any Camino by

 

[Deleted member 56069]

I love this song by Amos Lee. Appropriately titled 'El Camino.'

 

[Rick of Rick and Peg]

I can't remember for sure but I think I used this song as gentle persuasion for someone who wasn't sure about walking the camino.

 

[KinkyOne]

This is even better, but requires a little patience at the beginning

A whole lot of patience!!!

And definitely wrong title. When I drink my beer only then time stood still

 

[KinkyOne]

One of them is Croatian and the other one Slovenian

This easily fills up my batteries in no time
The title is also meaningful...

So then you are familiar with them...why am I not surprised!

I agree - Bob Dylan's music is often interpreted by other artists, " but none of these and nothin' else" ever surpasses the original renditions of his works. Just think, as you listen to his version of this and other songs, what a gift that has been to us all. Did you realise, as you enjoyed the song, that you were listening to the music of a Nobel-prize-winning musical artist?

 

[KinkyOne]

So then you are familiar with them...why am I not surprised!

I met them years ago when they weren's so famous as they are now. It was the work for me.

 

[Derrybiketours]

I like it but if it was on my camino playlist I'd have to walk really fast then end up running looking over my shoulder thinking someone is following me

[Derrybiketours]

Anyone else find this song a bit "Camino-ish"...?

 

[Kathy Jaudegis]

Huh, for me Meseta-ish would something like this:

Seriously!

I actually love this!

 

[Icacos]

And since this is an international forum, I just have to post this. And I think it’s Camino-ish.

 

[KinkyOne]

For Galicia I would nominate these two. Very different but both with lyrics by Rosalia de Castro (one of the most beautiful women I had opportunity to know - reading their poetry...)

With subtitles but in Gallego only... You'll get the point

 

[Robo]

Huh, I don't think so

I think I was the 'guilty' one . Now I have to go listen to it another 6 times!

Huh, sorry @Robo but I don't know what you are referring to because I think you cut my quote...

 

[Robo]

was it you that introduced me to Hiye Kaya Mein - Maati Baani Ft. Mooralala Marwada?

@KinkyOne It was this..............

 

[Roland49]

maybe this one:

Have fun!

 

[Derrybiketours]

And since this is an international forum, I just have to post this. And I think it’s Camino-ish.

I'll give it a like despite the absence of the Celtic nations but this one makes up for it and now goes out to this forum and all its members!

 

[Derrybiketours]

Haha, fun! Great song especially for that part of the Camino your obliged too but decide to carry it a little further

 

[caminoresearcher]

This is a Camino playlist I made after returning home from my Camino in 2015. I update it regularly when I find new “Camino-ish” songs.

 

[Wockin]

Bells of Freedom Bon Jovi

 

[Pelegrin]

A little bit off the same wavelength of previous posts, but the fact is that they say:
"....A Santiago voy como un peregrino por el camino de la ilusión (hope in Spanish)" and
" …..El verde me acaricia porque a Galicia xa estou chegando" ( the green caresses me because am coming to Galicia). So, they started before Sarria.

 

[Stivandrer]

Yes I can see that. At first I thought 'this really is not my thing' but it grew on me and it is actually a beautiful song.

Originally a Bob Dylan song.
My fav version is sung by Sanny Denny in the seventies !!

Well I just love that, too. Thanks for sharing!
