A Happy Tune for a Monday
As a former choir girl I love to hear ochestral arrangements to pop songs I love. I thought I'd share this lovely tune with all of you because I wanted to brighten your Monday morning. Can you guess who he is? And for bonus points, can you identify the song he's playing before the video ends?

I would if I could hear it. Something not working with my speakers. Not just this, but I realized after trying to listen to this, nothing was making noise. Sigh.

That HAS to be Ian Anderson. If it's not, it's someone imitating him. I don't know his face, but that's his voice -- and when he picked up the flute, I knew it had to be him.

Ogre beat me to it. Life's a Long Song by Jethro Tull, sung here by Ian Anderson it seems.

I haven't got a clue.

It seems the village Ogre has guessed his name correctly and our village Bobo got the song. Well done you two.
You both win the smarty pants music award!

Didn't recognize Ian without the long hair, but there's no mistaking that voice.

It took me about two bars to figure out that it's "Life's A Long Song," a venerable Jethro Tull tune. Ian Anderson looks a bit older than the last time I saw him in person back in 1972...
This version isn't all that different from the original, which also had orchestral backing.
What a treat - thank you!
