Beautiful Dreamer - revisited

Ok,

Here are several musical versions of the poem "Beautiful Dreamer," by Stephen Foster which I have previously posted.

#1. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtgklHQ52WE

#4. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7INEy-yoeg

I have to say that number 4 is my favorite. The Beatles definitely put a different spin on it. Anyway... which one do you guys like?

    Can't stand #1 and (especially) #3. I loved the Beatles one! Man, I just love those guys!
    But I also really like the poem as a poem and not as song lyrics. It's different that way. It's so pretty and cool when you are just reading it.

    Anyway, I like that poem, and the Beatles rock. You betcha. Bye.

    Yes, I agree with you, Julius Caesar!

    It's such a beautiful piece of poetry.

    I liked numbers 1 and 4. The second one bugged me.

    You could have embedded the videos. Do you know how to do that?

    Well, I believe it is placing the videos onto this site so we can just click, "play" instead of having to click the link and go from there...
    But as for actually doing it, I can't help you. I don't know how :(

    Hey guys, I'm going to Thomas Aquinas for two weeks, so I'm gonna take a little break from the blog. The person after me can go ahead and post.
