Classical lovers (violin)

Classical is definitely one of my favorites and believe it or not, I have about 60 original CDs. Not many people in Malaysia would spend that kind of money in original stuff. The most important thing is that I don't think there is any pirated classical CDs. At times when I am kinda annoyed by some pop music or I am simply in frustration, classical is the best remedy to cool me down. On the contrary, when I am down, it can help me rallied. I have picked two classical songs which are really good for those who are going through depression like me. You have to empty your mind and follow the emotion without thinking all the annoying stuff. It really works.
These two versions best other versions although the video quality may not be that good. Another point is that I prefer the live performance to the album version.

Vivaldi - Summer (Presto) from The Four Seasons by (Sorry, I don't know who they are, the words are all in Spanish, but they are great!)
When listening to this song, I can feel my environment becoming warm and the plant and flowers growing so rapidly just like in summer.



Mendelssohn - Violin Concerto in E minor by Shlomo Mintz
This Israeli violinist is simply one of the best in the world.
This song is a bit dramatic. I don't know why but I always relate this song to a situation like this: A guy saw a really beautiful girl and he fell in love at his first sight. He was so confused whether to tell her or not. Suddenly he saw her holding a guy's hand and obviously that guy is her boyfriend. He was so down and couldn't eat and sleep for his heart has broken. All of a sudden, he was filled of anger because he felt that he was so weak. ( I have different versions for the end of this story)
