JAMES MORRISON Fünf Shows Mit Dem Nummer Eins Soul-Man Im April & Juni 2016 Köln, Berlin, Offenbach, München Und Hamburg Brandneues Album: „Higher Than Here“ PRESSEMITTEILUNG JAMES MORRISON Fünf Shows mit dem Nummer Eins Soul-Man im April & Juni 2016 Köln, Berlin, Offenbach, München und Hamburg Brandneues Album: „Higher Than Here“ Seine Hits sind längst moderne Klassiker; Songs wie beispielsweise „Wonderful World“, „You Make It Real“, das Duett mit Nelly Furtado „Broken Strings“ und das betörend seelenvolle „You Give Me Something“. Mit diesen Songs, mit diesem Sound hat James Morrison den Pop der letzten Jahre nicht nur entscheidend geprägt und damit Acts wie Ed Sheeran und George Ezra die Tür geöffnet – dem charismatischen Soul-Man aus dem britischen Rugby ist ein kometenhafter Aufstieg in den Olymp des Entertainments geglückt. Mit allen relevanten Weihen: Brit-Awards, Best-Selling-Artist des Jahres, ausverkaufte Welttourneen, über 4,5 Millionen verkaufte Alben, Shows mit Megastars wie Tom Jones und Bruce Springsteen; selbst Jazz-Ikone Herbie Hancock lud den warmkehligen Ausnahme- Sänger für Aufnahmen ins Studio. Seine Karriere kannte seit seinem 2006 erschienenen Hit- Debüt „Undiscovered“ nur eine Richtung: nach oben. Nach seiner eineinhalb Jahre andauernden Welttournee und seinem umjubelten dritten Album „The Awakening“ – bei dem er den Tod seines Vaters verarbeitete – war es 2011 für James Morrison an der Zeit, eine Pause einzulegen: Innehalten, das Erlebte verarbeiten und sich um seine Familie zu kümmern waren ihm wichtiger, als weiter das Eisen des Erfolges zu schmieden. Jetzt meldet sich James Morrison zurück. Fulminant, mit neuem Album, neuer Tour – und stärker denn je. Sein neues Album „Higher Than Here“ weist Morrison erneut als grandiosen Songschmied von eindringlichen, und dazu höchst persönlichen Tracks aus. Einige davon sind in Zusammenarbeit mit Eg White (Adele, Sam Smith) entstanden, mit dem er schon zu Beginn seiner Karriere arbeitete. Bei dem von Kritikern überschwänglich gelobten Album gelingt dem Künstler ein emotionaler Spagat: Einerseits spricht er offen über persönliche Probleme und Ängste – andererseits findet er selbst in dunklen Momenten noch den berühmten Hoffnungsschimmer. Am schönsten glimmt die gewagte Gefühls- Gratwanderung bei der Single-Auskopplung „Demons“: Urbane Beats und Sounds treffen auf einen hymnisch-ekstatischen Refrain. Doch auch die weiteren Songs treffen ins Schwarze: das von Beziehungsstress geprägte „Too Late For Lullabies“ genauso wie die groovigen Tracks „Right Here“ und „I Need You Tonight“. Großes Kino für die Ohren! Wie hervorragend das neue Song-Material von „Higher Than Here“ für die Bühne geeignet ist, zeigte sich kürzlich bei seinem – innerhalb weniger Minuten ausverkauften – Live- Comeback in London. In der legendären „Wilton’s Music Hall“ und im „Tabernacle“ präsentierte Morrison einige der neuen Tracks – und erntete Jubelkritiken: „Ein erhebendes Comeback eines echten Soul-Man“, urteilte der angesehene Evening Standard und bescheinigte James & Band, live besser denn je zu sein. Beste Voraussetzungen für die ausgedehnte Europa-Tournee im nächsten Jahr. Nach einer äußerst erfolgreichen UK-Tournee im November stehen für Morrison im April & Juni 2016 fünf Konzerte in Deutschland an: Köln, Berlin, Offenbach, München und Hamburg. Dazu James Morrison: „Ich habe das Gefühl, als ob ich lange eingesperrt gewesen wäre. Jetzt aber bin ich wieder da – und freue mich wahnsinnig, die neuen Songs live präsentieren zu können. Für „Higher Than Here“ habe ich einiges ausprobiert, bin neue Wege gegangen. Alles hat sich gelohnt: Mein bester Longplay bisher!“ JAMES MORRISON presented by Marek Lieberberg & Mario Mendrzycki Fr. 08.04.16 Köln / E-Werk Sa. 16.04.16 Berlin / Huxleys So. 17.04.16 Offenbach / Capitol Sa. 23.04.16 München / Kesselhaus Do. 09.06.16 Hamburg / Stadtpark Open-Air Der Vorverkauf beginnt Freitag, 27.

  • Should We Observe the Feast Days? (A Short and Limited Study by G
    1 Should We Observe the Feast Days? (A short and limited study by G. Edward Reid) When the Seventh-day Adventist Church was in its early years’ Sabbath Keeping was quite unique among Christians. Apparently, there were some folks who felt that since we had “rediscovered” the Sabbath, we should also look into whether or not we should also celebrate the Feast Days contained in the Law of Moses or Ceremonial Law. Ellen White was led to write four full articles for the Review and Herald on the topic of “The Lord’s Supper and the Ordinance of Feet-Washing.” They were printed in the RH on four successive weeks May 31 through June 21, 1898. For the value and benefit of context, I have copied all four articles below, placed in bold type, and underlined relevant statements in each article. “May 31, 1898 The Lord's Supper and the Ordinance of Feet-Washing.--No. 1. - Mrs. E. G. White. - "Then came the day of unleavened bread; when the Passover must be killed. And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the Passover, that we may eat. And they said unto him, where wilt thou that we prepare? And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in. And ye shall say unto the good man of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guest-chamber, where I shall eat the Passover with my disciples? And he shall show you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.

  • The Old Year The
    GENERAL CHURCH PAPER OF THE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS Vol. 108 Takoma Park, Washington, D. C., December 31, 1931 No. 53 I can sing of temptations and failures That I sometimes have had by the way, The Can sing how the blessed Redeemer Has lifted my feet from the clay. And the New Year shall tell of the triumphs That Jesus can give every hour; Old Year Yes, the New Year shall tell what the Old Year Can never again have the power. We can sing of some hands that are vanished and And the voices of loved ones now still, Whose music our hearts once enraptured, And lives with their sunshine did fill. Yes, the Old Year has given and taken, the New Its dreams are all gone with their lure; Let us turn now and face the bright New Year With hearts set to dare and endure. Let's forever, then, leave the dead ashes, For the fire of the Old Year's burnt out With pictures which glowed for a moment, By Mary Valliant Nowlin As breath of time stirred them about; They are now left all scattered and lifeless, And cold on the hearthstone of night. For the day of the Old Year is ended, Forever has passed out of sight. But the New Year, with leaves all unfolded, Is ours to write on what we will, WILL sing you a song of the Old Year, Of deeds that shall tell for the Master, Of the New Year I cannot now sing; The unwritten pages to fill.

Spotify: Is Spotify the Problem or a Symptom of the Problem? Abstract Today, streaming is the prevailing mode of music consumption. Yet, streaming services are struggling to turn a profit, as songwriters also face significant financial challenges in the streaming era. All the while, record labels are collecting the majority of streaming revenue and seeing record profits. The 2018 Music Modernization Act attempted to address songwriters’ and streaming services’ financial problems by altering the factors considered by the Copyright Royalty Board in determining the mechanical royalty rates owed by streaming platforms to songwriters. A proper application of this newly instated factor test necessitates considering both songwriters’ and streaming services’ business operations and finances. However, during the 2018–2022 mechanical rate determinations, the majority court largely disregarded the financial interests of streaming services in determining the new mechanical rate.
