questi ragazzotti si son fatti conoscere utilizzando un giro armonico inventato da Mick Jagger, questa nuova canzone mi ricorda tanto gli anni 80, quelli dell'edonismo reganiano; non vorrei sconfinare nella blasfemia dicendo che mi ricorda le sonorità dei Simple Minds (e di una carrettata di altri gruppi loro coetanei). Musicalmente parlando, trattasi di riflusso o di reflusso?

Stupidbook

melanierees — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 02:10:46 +0000

Facebook. Ugh. More like Stupidbook if you ask me.

I mean, honestly. Why are we so attracted to this site?

A funny thing happened in my Internet Survey and Research class the other day. We were on Stephane Dion’s web page, where on the bottom of his page was a Facebook link that said “Add Stephane Dion”.

I guess we like Facebook so much because it makes things easier for us. I mean, friends are constantly changing their status, uploading their latest party pictures, and writing on each other’s walls. Viewing a friends profile and looking at their business is just so much easier than calling and asking what they have been up to. I miss those days.

One thing I hate the most about Facebook is when someone updates their status every two minutes, just so it will be first on the list. Now everyone who logs on will immediately know your business. Maybe it is just a desperate cry for attention.

Facebook is easy for hearing about an event. Instead of talking to a person, and asking if they would like to come, you can just click their name. They will soon find out since people can’t go one day without checking in to their beloved account. All of the information for the event is already posted. Plus you can check the guest list to see who else is attending. I guess this is how parties will be planned from now on. Jeeze, pretty soon wedding invitations will be sent through Facebook. Please tell me we wont sink that low.

And even after the layout of Facebook was changed to the most hideous layout ever made, we still can’t give it up. We whine and complain and waste our time creating petitions for the old layout back. But to give up Facebook… oh man. Don’t count on it. Even when we are unhappy with it, we can’t give it up.

What is with this addiction to such a stupid site?

So much communication is done through Facebook these days. I mean, to catch up with a friend from high school, just write on their wall because calling them takes oh so much time.

We count on the internet for so much these days. It is pulling us away from the real world and into the hands of technology. That scares me. I miss the real world. This new technology one is dumb. We will all end up with social problems. We will be pro at typing, though.

Kay, I should start my required blogs. Stupid Facebook distracted me again. And I don’t even use the dumb site anymore. Okay, I lied.

Remember

Rings of fire

I’ve put on my fingers

Death’s bride

Became my heart

Drowned in silence

I laid my love to rest

Under the cruel grave

Of your demise

I hope you take pride

In all your choices

In all the pain

You give my heart

There are no ends

No beginnings, no faith

Corrupted by tears

My life is blind

Touch my shadow

The hospital breaths it

Yet doctors are kind

They kill with a smile

No dooms are needed

I’m in enough hell

Fall down in darkness

My eyes turned inside

I love my sweet smile

That I’ll never see

I love all my being

That’s sealed in my heart.

I’ll go to sleep tonight

With your memory close

To my bleeding heart

I’ll miss you one more night.

One year passed,

Never gets easy

Touching my shadow,

My love is blind.

Rings of fire

I’ve put on my fingers

Happiness awaits me

Alone in your song

Never say goodbye

I don’t believe in endings

My love will stay forever here

Until the day I die.

I. D.

CHANGE

untamedwaters — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 02:54:00 +0000

"Building walls around me,

Keeping me safe,

Closing everything I am

I burry myself deep inside my blood

So lost, so transparent

To every eye that haunts me

I’m in your shadow,

Hidden deep within your past

Grinning and bearing

Worlds apart from life and death

No love or pain, there’s nothing there…

Keeping myself safe from you

Dark shadows surround me

I see so clear trough myself

I color the features in my way

Drink Lethe’s waters till the end.

Change I embrace again tonight

Another chance to keep evolving

Never look back in your despair

Taking back every kiss that broke me."

I.D.

my poisoned love

untamedwaters — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 02:25:03 +0000

„My new world filled with rivers of blood

My love holding my hand so tender,

Making sweet love, my life eternal...

There were all my bloody nights forever.

I learn, I listen, I discover,

The world is our perfect garden

I fly the nights and kiss the lives

Away from all who cross my hungry path

I have surrendered to my love’s will

He owns my heart and all my being

I now belong all to my love

And he belongs just to himself…

Such wonders and such horrors

I live now, feels like dreaming,

Should I ever wake up...? I don’t care

My fantasy, my poison is all I ever need”

I.D.

Emotions

untamedwaters — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 02:07:39 +0000

Feelings never stop, no sleep tonight, there’s no death in sleep, how can you compare sleep with a little death when I feel so strong when I sleep?! There’s no death in sleep, only feelings, I can never escape them, emotions combined into such a confusing mixture, I need to forget for a second I am alive, I need a break from myself…

I am hopeful but nothing changes trough my years, I waited and prayed, bargained and begged, nothing changes, only the faces around.

Tired of having the same conversations over and over again with different faces, learning nothing, smiles are forced upon my lips, my lips hurt, too many polite smiles…

How can I close everything and be gone from this, how can you take a break from all the living, how will I get away from my emotions…?!

How can I escape my love and my heart? Love makes me so anxious, makes me depend on a smile, how can I love without loving?

How can you embrace a friend and don’t have a fear that someday that friend may be gone, how can you let go when we all know we’ll die someday?

How can I keep my memory perfect and hanging in that perfect moment when all I feel manifests around me?

So I need to escape these emotions, I am not dead, as long as I fear I am more alive than when I’m just existing, how can you not have that fear, how can you kiss that person and know that person won’t be there always and not stay for one more second there, how can you turn and walk the other way when the other still stands there, how can you ever leave the other first?

My heart is broken, my love makes me want to live forever, my fear wants me to die now and just forget that I had something to lose.

How can I say I love you when in some years I’ll say “I love you” to a rotting corpse, when my lips won’t be lips and all will be just dead flesh, why bother to love so much if death will take you away from me, how can I have the courage to say I do when my flowers are already dying in my hands, how can you make love stronger than death…

I am whispering alone in the dark, my fears haunt me, I am alone in a love I fear…

I can’t stop loving and I can’t stop dying.. maybe when you meet me in a winter night you’ll hold me a second more just because maybe… maybe you love me more than fear…

Blue-veined hands

agebuster — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 15:38:02 +0000

Growing up, I loved to look at my grandma’s hands. They were smooth, never chapped. She was pampered by her married son whom she lived with, and her hands rarely washed dishes or scoured pans. Her daughter-in-law did all of that. Grandma used her hands only for washing her intimate apparel and ironing it. But smooth though they were, over the years the hands acquired blue veins that lifted the surface of the skin. They added an interesting weblike design and color and I loved to fondle them, snatching a surreptitious kiss.

But today visible veins are a no-no. The beauty industry has come up with antiaging treatments that reduce veins, using plumping fillers to hide them and age-erasing lasers. Now that I'm in late maturity, my own hands have veins but I have no intention of using such artificial means. Veins indicate a woman’s passage of years, her durability. I find them beautiful and would not dream of erasing them.

Desperate hearts

untamedwaters — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 13:26:32 +0000

"Desperate hearts and broken dreams

The world if filled with fools

They live their life committed to their hearts

Forever trapped into a yearning.

We are love’s whores in night’s sweet mist

A kiss, a smile, a step beyond our fears

We give it all for all to trash it

And then we bleed our life through crying.

Breathe in the music of the broken hearts

I drown myself in my own tears

Such pain, such sufferings my eyes have seen

My heart stops every time they die.

I am a sacrifice of love’s damned pain

Time can’t erase and cannot heal my soul

For so, we’re broken, left, deserted

To wait for that who’ll never come

Desperate hearts and broken dreams

They all feel like my own damnation

I feel for all the broken hearts

I feel as much as for my own.

Stop crying my lone angel

We’ll have it all someday

We’ll live our life committed to our hearts

Forever trapped into a yearning

No harm can reach our hearts so pure,

No lie can poison our lone dreaming,

We are love’s whores in night’s sweet mist

We kiss, we smile, we go one step beyond our fears."

I.D.

Berbuat Kesalahan

Fitriani Titin — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 08:17:41 +0000

Yang ngerasa ga pernah berbuat salah, coba angkat tangan.. :-)
Manusia itu kan tempatnya salah dan dosa, jadi berbuat salah itu hal yang biasa. Ga usah minder dan ga usah khawatir. Dulu nih, waktu masa-masa belum menemukan diri sendiri, berbuat salah rasanya hal yang tabu. Sekali kita berbuat salah, rasanya orang-orang di sekeliling kita ga akan pernah melupakan dan memaafkannya. Ada yang merasa seperti itukah? :-)

Aku pernah membicarakan diriku yang melakukan kesalahan yang sama lebih dari sekali dengan seorang teman. Aku bodoh sekali, kira-kira itulah perkataan penutupku. Tapi tu teman dengan santainya bilang, Tuhan tau koq manusia itu biangnya salah dan dosa, mereka makhluk yang berbuat salah lagi dan lagi. Bahkan jika saat kamu berbuat satu kesalahan, kamu bertobat dan entah kenapa setelah itu melakukan lagi, InsyaAllah tetap akan diampuni. Bukankah kita juga diwajibkan shalat berkali-kali? Ga hanya sekali saja dan selesai? Bukankah kita disuruh berpuasa, bersedekah, berzikir juga berkali-kali, karena Allah tau kita selalu lupa, karena itu kita “dipaksa” untuk mengingat-Nya dengan semua perintah-perintah itu.

Tapi buat manusia biasa seperti diriku, tetap saja setiap melakukan kesalahan, rasanya ingin memutar waktu kembali dan mengulang segalanya sehingga kesalahan itu bisa dihindari. Dan bersyukur ilmu pengetahuan belum menemukan mesin waktu, karena betapa tidak bahagianya jika kita selalu kembali ke masa lalu dan mengulang kembali hal-hal yang pernah kita lakukan untuk memperbaiki sekian kesalahan yang pernah kita lakukan. ^_^

Dari hasil Googling, aku juga dapat informasi bahwa nabi Muhammad SAW sendiri tidak luput dari berbuat salah, hanya bedanya dengan kita adalah Allah segera mengoreksi kesalahan yang dilakukan beliau. Dan koreksi itu akan keluar dalam bentuk wahyu ataupun haditz sehingga setiap orang setelah itu bisa mengambil hikmahnya.

So, ini bukan himbauan untuk berbuat salah, tapi himbauan untuk jangan takut berbuat salah. karena Allah adalah Maha Penagampun, jadi percayalah selalu ada ampunan yang cukup buat kita.

Ooo Tuhanku, aku tak layak ke Surga-Mu
Namun tak pula aku sanggup ke neraka-Mu
Ampunkan dosaku terimalah taubatku
(Raihan)

cat cruise

61cygni — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 20:02:46 +0000

Richard Wright ci ha lasciato, l'autore dei "tappeti sonori" su cui spiccavano gli assoli di David Gilmour ci ha salutato. Con lui va via un pezzo della mia giovinezza (ed anche di molti giorni successivi), la speranza che si tenesse un concerto (indimenticabile) sulla piana di Giza (oltre agli ovvi motivi di sicurezza, capisco le "altre" motivazioni che hanno spinto il Gruppo a rinunciarvi). Dei Pink Floyd la colonna sonora di tanti momenti importanti, ma un posto particolare è riservato alla produzione da solista; dall'album "solo" Wet Dream è tratta "Cat Cruise" e la domanda era:

se chiudi gli occhi, cosa vedi?

le strade di New York con milioni di persone che vanno al lavoro.

grazie Richard.

Old Man

61cygni — Sun, 14 Sep 2008 10:30:58 +0000

"Old Man"

Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.

Old man look at my life,
Twenty four
and there's so much more
Live alone in a paradise
That makes me think of two.

Love lost, such a cost,
Give me things
that don't get lost.
Like a coin that won't get tossed
Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.

Lullabies, look in your eyes,
Run around the same old town.
Doesn't mean that much to me
To mean that much to you.

I've been first and last
Look at how the time goes past.
But I'm all alone at last.
Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.

Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.

(Harvest - 1972)

Goodbye Blue Sky

61cygni — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 05:00:15 +0000

"Look mummy, there's an aeroplane up in the sky"
Did you see the frightened ones?
Did you hear the falling bombs?
Did you ever wonder why we had to run for shelter when the
promise of a brave new world unfurled beneath a clear blue sky?
Did you see the frightened ones?
Did you hear the falling bombs?
The flames are all gone, but the pain lingers on.
Goodbye, blue sky
Goodbye, blue sky.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
"The 11:15 from Newcastle is now approaching"
"The 11:18 arrival...."
