For much of the song, there is a cycle of one measure of 7/4, then two of 4/4.

We used 5 different melodies from the 4 movements of Beethoven’s 5th Symphony.

This selection for GSOTD has somewhat of a twist to it. Last night I was watching AGT on YouTube, and I happened to come across the best opera performances by children (kids). This particular video was in 2016 with Laura Bretan when Mel B gave her the golden buzzer for her outstanding performance. I was moved by the performance, so I decided to pair the two together for today's selections. They will be the last two songs added for today. Enjoy the music. 

Jawiian/Pop: Impossible by Fiji.  https://pandora.app.link/z4HBXsbQ3eb   In a way ‘Impossible’ is the complete antithesis of everything else on the album, which has a lot of anxiety and confusion about what’s happening on this planet.

Movie soundtrack/Instrumental: The John Dunbar Theme (Dances With Wolves) by John Berry & The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.  https://pandora.app.link/vpOccrLQ3eb  The John Dunbar Theme, from Dances with Wolves, is an American epic western film, released in 1990, that was directed by and starred Kevin Costner. It won widespread admiration as well as seven Academy Awards (Picture, Cinematography, Direction, Editing, Music, Sound, and Screenplay). It also received the Golden Globe Award for best drama.

Dance Club: For Once In My Life by Mel B. https://pandora.app.link/XF4q611Q3eb  "For Once in My Life" is a song by British singer-songwriter Mel B. The song was written by Brown, Tim Daniel McEwan, Lars Halvor Jensen, Gita Lake, and Negin Djafari, and produced by Danish production team DEEKAY.

Soprano: Dear Father by Laura Bretan.  https://pandora.app.link/LVzNHKeR3eb  Laura Bretan. Chicago, Illinois, U.S. Laura Bretan (born April 7, 2002) is a Romanian-American singer and soprano. She was the winner of season six of the Pro TV series Romania's Got Talent, and later placed sixth in season eleven of America's Got Talent, both in 2016.

Until some time tomorrow, take care and stay safe.

@Mamitajess, Thank you for your kind words. I post this for several reasons, for one, I myself love music, it has become very therapeutic for me. I have gone through some very rough storms in my life (just like countless upon countless others who have as well). But music has really helped me through it. I also do this for other music lovers, like yourself. I also do this to try and interact with others here on Pandora. And besides all of that, it is just downright fun to do. So, if you have favorites that you would like to see posted, then please feel free and reply back. I will add them to the post and the GSOTD playlist. I will also make sure to make mention of you for your selections.
