What a turbulent year it's been - we hope this song can bring you joy and hope as we start to come out the other side. But for now, as we hold out that little bit longer: "Come on, come on, come on! Get through this!" - and remember "love's the greatest thing". "Tender" by Blur is a song of a fragile mind - which I'm sure we can relate to after a challenging year. We were inspired by Van Gogh's Starry Night over the Rhone painting, which is featured in this video. The song is about Blur's frontman Damon Albarn’s breakup with musician turned painter Justine Frischmann; we featured her paintings as well. Featuring 31 singers from around the world - and musicians from Bristol, where ChoirCast began. Everyone involved filmed themselves at home on their phones. This is also the most soloists we have had in a ChoirCast video (a total of 15) so congratulations to them!

Our next release is in April. Visit www.choircast.com to sign up :) www.elizafyfe.com Story of how the theme of Tender came about, by our editor, Martin: "I bought a copy of the classic novel ‘Tender is the Night’ by F. Scott Fitzgerald. I knew the title was the inspiration for the song’s title and its first line and I thought I might get some hints from the content. Actually I did – but I would only realise that later. Next, I turned to the lyrics of the song to see if there was anything beyond the fist line that might give me some inspiration. The line ‘Lord I need to find someone who can heal my mind’ would prove to make an interesting connection. The line suggested someone might be having issues with their mental health! Then I looked at the book again. Its front cover design was an art deco style painting of a sweeping bay somewhere on the French Riviera where the book is set. I liked the look of it and thought that it was a potential background image for the video. But it was a daytime scene and I needed it to be a night image, so I started to search for something similar painted at night. I found it. It was a painting called ‘Starry Night over the Rhone’ by Vincent Van Gogh. And there was the first connection. If ever there was an artist who had issues with his mental health it was Van Gogh! Then I returned to story of the song and learned that it was written by the four band members about Blur frontman Damon Albarn’s breakup with musician turned painter Justine Frischmann. And there was the second connection. I had another painter in the mix! Two people with broken minds, and two painters! So the video features details of Van Gogh paintings with his deep yellows and blues and some Justine Frischmann paintings. I suppose at one level the use of these images might be a subtle reference to the artist’s often fragile state of mind. I think the song suggests that too. Here's some trivia for you.... Did you know that the word ‘Tender’ only occurs 4 times in the song? There are 8 ‘Oh why’s’, 10 ‘Oh my’s’, 10 ‘Oohs’ , 24 ‘Come on’s’ and 24 ‘Oh My baby’s'. You can’t accuse me of not researching this thoroughly!"

We are proud to present to you our Christmas song of 2020, "Love Is Christmas" by Sara Bareilles, featuring 51 singers from around the world (the most singers we've had). Everyone involved filmed themselves at home on their phones. We have raised £1121 for Southmead Hospital Charity for their research programme for Covid-19. There's still time to donate: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/choirantinebuskathon We chose this song as we want to reflect on this difficult year. Remember that no matter where you are, you are loved. And if you can't see your loved ones, we hope that this can be a comfort - hold tight, it will be worth the wait for next year. We'd like to share the lyrics with you for this beautiful song by Sara Bareilles: I don’t care if the house is packed, Or the strings of light are broken. I don’t care if the gifts are wrapped, Or there’s nothing here to open. Love is not a toy, and no paper will conceal it. Love is simply joy that I’m home. I don’t care if the carpet's stained; we've got food upon our table. I don’t care if it’s gonna rain, our little room is warm and stable. Love is who we are, and no season can contain it. Love would never fall for that. We sing ooooooooooooooo... Let love lead us, love is Christmas. Why so scared that you’ll mess it up? When perfection keeps you haunted. All we need is your best my love, that’s all anyone ever wanted. Love is how we do, let no judgment overrule it. Love I look to you, and I sing. Ooooooooooooooooooooo Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh... Let love lead us, love is Christmas. Let love lead us, love is Christmas.

We are proud to introduce you to our latest video, which is all about celebrating people singing together from all over the world. Covid or no covid, this is an awesome opportunity to sing together thanks to electricity, so we thought this song was very apt! Those who would never normally have the chance to meet have created beautiful harmonies together, which never ceases to amaze me, so I was excited to create this arrangement with a bit of a twist. The song was a choir member suggestion (thanks Helen Rossington!) and we hope you enjoy its dreamy theme. ChoirCast presents: Together In Electric Dreams, by Philip Oakey & Giorgio Moroder. Featuring 33 singers who all videoed themselves at home on their phones. This is the most parts we've had in a ChoirCast song so far: 5-part harmony!
