The Music of Senator Orrin Hatch

[koganbot]

Music of Senator Orrin Hatch - who is from the neighboring state of Utah (neighboring if you live in Colorado, that is) - is streamed here. Haven't listened myself, since it requires Realplayer, which I have long banished from my computer. But comments would be appreciated, since a friend of mine is doing a piece on the fellow's music. I've emailed him my thoughts on the lyrics to "America United."

heal our land: he has a rich, deepish, good baritone voice -- my instant thought was paul robeson! tho it's nothing like as deep -- and the backing is simple orchetral and a rather tepid choir; one interesting aspect for me is the degree to which the tone expresses a humility before a larger power, given that hatch's political persona doesn't, on the whole -- i can imagine his fans consider this "another, less arrogant side to him" -- the burden of the song is a plea for god to deliver america into liberty and freedom

that's the only one i could contact to for the moment
