Because of the low turnout :( I've decided NOT to make a new thread for each day so as each day ends I'll introduce the next day in this thread.

Just a reminder of what will happen :-

1) Find a nice, relaxing song on wikiloops in the genre of the day - It can be NEW or OLD - It can be Yours or just one you like that fits the genre. Leave the track link in this thread and maybe tell us about it

Have a lovely week, Shamika :)

I spent a short bit of time digging around for a tune, a couple spins into fishinmissio's back catalog of jazz revealed this nugget.

Oh Mike, this is the perfect start, thank you. I was just off the bed and listened to this first, now I will sleep well :)

Now wikiloopers you know what to do !

Bonjour'ning, my vote for a smooth one. plenty of better tracks but this one is special to me: that was the first time "I" received a remix from Shi :) after the one from the "BassKing" AlexJ... STRIKE :)

Bonjour'ning Tofzegrit, thanks for joining the WWWW. Good choice, Shi has just the right vocal tone for this style of music. Very relaxing, a nightclub feel, even at this time of day :W

Smooth Jazz / Soft Blues, I got just the right track. Our Moonchild wonderfully sings this jazzy melancholy song, and some guy who usually makes lot of noise managed to add some restrained jazzy sounding guitar ;)

These great lady vocals at WL certainly hit the spot.
Here's a healthy tip:-
As you listen to a song at this pace try adjusting your breathing in time to the rhythm IN 2 3 4 OUT 2 3 4. Doing this helps with the wind down experience. Thanks TeeGee (sorry I insulted your blueberries)

Well, not the rush I was hoping for :( but hey, if you don't have (or can't find) relaxing Jazz and Blues tracks, there's plenty of slow Bossa Novas to chill out to.

Never mind, I think we'll just move on to TRANSLATION TUESDAY and hope for more action from Non-English speaking vocalists but thanks to the Monday people :)

Starting Tuesday here and now.

Same idea, the song must be relaxing but this time it will have a non-English language vocal. I know there are plenty of these on the site. Good luck finding them and linking them, even I haven't worked out how to get the player up so a simple # number will do.

Hi there Mr Tuesday Tofzegrit. These are languages I adore, always relaxing... maybe because I'm not distracted by the meaning of the lyrics usually :)

Unfortunately this song isn't particularly relaxing but, in keeping with Translation Tuesday, it is in a non-English language!

TRANSLATION TUESDAY PICK

Im extremely proud of this collab with Jussef.
I was known as Relativity many years ago and have a whole entire profile here.
I still remember waking up sunday morning and finding this under the Wikiloops feed.

This was from one of my songwriting busy periods and was on top of my game during this time.
Jussef is an outstanding musician and songwriter in his own right.I consider him a personal friend.

I need to really do a cleanup mix on this. Its a personal favorite.

SECRET GARDEN

I want to invite you
to the garden of eden

where darkness is not
greater than light for me

don't leave now
come to…come to …the garden

It's a secret garden
where you and I belong

where I have my soul
ready for you

secret garden

secret garden

here in the garden
there is only you and me

because it's a secret
where you and I will be

I want to hold you close
in my garden

where the roses are magic

come to the garden... come to the garden...

Thanks LittleWing, I thought I'd tried that but nothing came up... I will try again.
I really like the sound on your offering, lovely rounded vocal... there was some chill-out in the slower parts :) You should be proud and nostalgic :)

cmdr-chill this wasn't the vocal mix but I listened to that :) not too "chill" but it was definitely non- English. Thanks for joining in :)

Here is one of my best loved backing tracks with Ulo adding lyrics to it. It's about spending a day on the beach.

Because there are few followers of this weekly challenge, I dare a second one.
Marmotte did a lot of songs in French as well.

Wind ind Wellen is so realaxing - I hear the ocean and the gulls, a good vocal and music that makes me sway and feel happy - hope other listeners get all that too, thanks TeeGee et al.

Tofzegrit, you're welcome to come again, especially with delightful songs like Pamba Toulama No Kitaloma. It's so cute, lovely harmonies and words that don't sound like words (to me) The voice is very pretty and the whole thing has a 'feel good' vibe. Thanks :)
