Err, not the Ode to Joy.  "Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring" ya mean.  I believe this version is just called "Joy".


You really know your classics.    Did you used to be in a band?   :)

Ella really likes "Jesu...".  It's a beautifully simple tune.  Leo Kottke does a real nice version of it that I tried to learn briefly.  I should put some more time into it.  Bach (JS) is the right dude.  "Ode to Joy" is the theme used in Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, 4th movement.

Me too...  I used to play a lot of Bach on classical guitar (really liked Leo Kottke at the time too).  Still love hearing Bach inventions and melodies...

In grammar school I was in a choir and we sang "Jesu..." -- some years later when that melody turned up in a song by the Move (a couple years before the Apollo 100 hit) I was floored.

But speaking of Ludwig Van's "Ode to Joy" -- I wish Dave would play Miguel Rios' pop version, "Song of Joy" in a 1970 set.

Was kinda hoping the Foghead would take "Out on the Weekend" (another choice from Harvest offered up by Annalisa) as I was thinking about it yesterday, but N&TDD is a fine choice.

Whoa!! Back-to-Back one-hit wonders: Apollo 500's take on Bach's Ode to Joy. (And probably Johann's last chart appearance.)


Kinda sorta - Doesn't he get a co-songwriting credit on Paul SImon's "American Tune"?
