Big Music – Songs for stadiums
Baronial, glorious, grandiose, heroic, Homeric, imperial, imposing, magnificent, majestic, massive, monumental, noble, proud, regal, royal and stately..How many songs can you think of that measure up to that exacting standard? This week we explore some of the mightiest songs of all time. Heroes of the airwaves. Not just stadium fillers, but music that can split mountains and drain rivers. Put down that hedge trimmer, sit down at the feet of the gods of music and listen…
