At Home may refer to:
At Home is the second album by the rock band, Shocking Blue. It was released in 1969 on the Pink Elephant label. The album is the debut for Mariska Veres.
This is the group's first record with singer, Mariska Veres. Robbie van Leeuwen acquired Veres in the attempt to assimilate to the form Jefferson Airplane did by adding a female singer. With Veres's notable vocal performance and stunning looks, the band finally had someone to front them. The band's second album was a mixture of influences ranging from pop rock to psychedelic rock. There is also early evidence of their interest in Americana with tracks like "California Here I Come" and "Harley Davidson". Overall, it is best known for its hit single "Venus" which reached number one on the American national charts. Never again did the band achieve such success in the US.
The John Mayer version of the song "Acka Raga" was used as the theme song for the BBC1 quiz show Ask the Family.
The track "Love Buzz" gained notoriety when it was covered by grunge band Nirvana.
At Home is an album by Irish-American folk group Cherish the Ladies that was released in 1999 on the RCA label. It contains a combination of traditional Irish folk songs, such as the Irish language "Is Fada Liom Uaimí Uaimí," and purely instrumental numbers, including jigs, reels, and airs. Bobby and Liam Clancy of The Clancy Brothers made guest appearances on the album. One of the members of Cherish the Ladies, Aoife Clancy, was the daughter of Bobby and the niece of Liam. Her brother, Finbarr Clancy, sings with them on "John o' Dreams," while her cousin Dónal Clancy accompanies them on guitar. This was the second-to-last album on which any of the Clancy Brothers appeared together.
Let's play a game my dear, you read my mind while you try to figure out what's inside under the influence of wine and jazz I'll say I love you every time and you, you will believe me though:
One day I'm feeling fine oh, the next I'm feeling down
I don't think that you have ever know me well or listened to the songs I sang, they were honest I don't think that you have ever felt this way or listened to those words I sang, they were about you
My eyes have danced with yours a million times waiting for the silent dawn unfold under the influence of wine and jazz I'll say I love you every time and you, you will believe me though:
One day I'm feeling high oh, the next I'm feeling down
