Rest in peace Sir Vangelis, and may you play this song to welcome me when I run for the pearly gates of Heaven. God bless and God speed sir.

I remember 😊.... when I was in the third grade back in the day, thin as a rail, and it was field day. I was in the relay race, last runner. I had to maintain the lead and The "S" Team would win the race! Foolish me, I started sprinting right out the gate. Soon I was feeling a bit gassed and therefore took a bit of rest as I was quite far in front of #2. I grabbed a Gatorade off one of the tables and sloshed it down. All of a sudden I started hearing Vangelis "Chariots of Fire" start playing through the PA system. I felt a surge, a second wind. I took my shoes and socks off, it was a cork track, and took off once again, Vangelis Chariots of Fire flowing through my veins and onwards to victory 😊

Dear Vangelis, I just want to let you know, whenever your soul may be ascending to, is similar to what you left to us in this world. The burning tears that I had for my late father who passed away on January 12, 2020 is the very same as of May 17, 2022. I believe many also felt the same. You spoke of love, courage, sympathy, greatness and hope like no one else could. When it was and will be difficult, you were the father; friend; light; closer to God and to nature itself for every single heart that listened to you. And for that, I really do hope that heavens exist so we/I can thank you there. All that is left is to carry the blissful smile in honor of your existence that happened once in a lifetime. May your spirit of sound never rest and echo for eternities.

The days when you could have a cigarette without everyone being up in arms. Beautiful piece of music.

[@JaniceLHz]

The days (1980s) when some people were still in denial about the devastating effects of chronic smoking on most chronic smokers and those around them. My friend born in 1981 was having lung problems as a kid from her parents smoking around her indoors. Her doctor told her parents that they should smoke outdoors instead so they did not ruin their daughter's health. Now she has asthma and gets hospitalizing pneumonias because her parents kept smoking indoors around her. While competent adults are welcome to weigh the risks and benefits to themselves, smoking in public or around children causes problems to others. I will continue to urge people to consider the consequences to those around them.

RIP Vangelis I remember my coach putting this song on for us while we drove to a race and you could just feel the Ora of this music hit your soul and get you ready to race. RIP vangelis

[@raftonpounder6696]

Aura

[@tenorlove]

That was a serendipitous error. Ora is Latin. It means mouths, but is also the imperative form of the verb orare, to pray. Best known in the phrase "ora pro nobis," pray for us, used in Catholic liturgy. This song IS a prayer of sorts.

[@Fairy_princess214]

@@tenorlove Of sorts...but not really. So yeah. It should be aura. Nice try at covering, though.

[@tenorlove]

@@Fairy_princess214 Covering what? Some people can find the hole in the grindstone and see through it.

[@Fairy_princess214]

@@tenorlove It was a misspelling. Not "serendipitous". I'm pretty sure that quoting refrigerator magnets isn't going to change that.

Look up "The Most Interesting Man in the World Commercial “ here on KZbin and watch some of the commercials. They are very funny and interesting. I was appreciating the poster’s humor and gave some of my own. You’ll understand once you see the commercials. Have a great weekend!

Rest in peace, Vangelis the virtuoso. What a magnificent composer we got to enjoy all these years but this, this is his best work. Chariots of Fire will hit differently now after the Maestro has passed on the beaches of heaven. May he find eternal rest and peace there.
