This phrase *made by me, ofc, haha
* actuallly stands for 'favourites'. it just fits here cause I love a Canadian band called Faber Drive
and in this post their brand new clip will also be included
it will be a kinda..well, not kinda, a total music post ![]()
cause here you'll be able to listen to 3 amazing songs I'm in love with..
and I highly recommend it to everybody. just give a listen to'em..just for once, haha
then it can become a repetitive act, lol
sg personal a bit>> when I look back on what I listened to some time ago it completely differs from what I listen to now. and I truly love it
I mean the songs I incline to listen a bit more these days. cause I do love my 'older' favourites, too. actually they are not even 'older' just my player plays'em a bit less
but still, they're there in my heart, u know
So, to turn back to the subject of this post, here are the 3 songs with some lines from the lyrics which I love the most from these particular masterpieces.
enjoy!
Marie Mai: Déjà loin
*tu as mis feu a notre histoire
mon coeur est déja loin
tu voudrais un nouveau départ
mais il ets trop tard*
Faber Drive: Give him up
*this is their brand new clip and I'm like 'wow' about it
*
*She won't ask,
Where he's been,
Just wants a kiss from his lips,
Cause she misses him*
Hedley - Perfect
*this song is so beautiful and tells so much via its lyrics that I can't help just repeating and repeating it from time to time
*
*I'm not perfect
But I keep trying
So please don't leave
Was it something I said
Or just my personality*
Hope you liked this musical wandering.
This was the 'word' I could come up with in order to describe this post.
So I'd like to tell you about the technology that surrounds us and that I'm thankful for. Don't worry, it won't be from a global point of view or anything that might bore you. btw, this might do so, but never mind. xD So I just wanted to write down that systems like twitter, facebook or any other forums are just awesomely awesome.
I mean especially twitter and forums 'cause I managed to make friends through these systems. It's not like I have loads from these sources..nope, it wouldn't be true, but I got few who I'm really grateful for. and consider real friends. like being able to talk about any topics mentioned randomly and thus having mutual memories and experiences. and these chats are damn good, man! can't really describe the feeling, but it's awesome!
So this would've been my thanksology thing, hope u like the title at least. xD
P.S.: Aaand I gotta inform you that I'm improving in French, franchement.
Going on slowly but surely, ofc.
“Of course, Maman (Mama)!” Louis said. “First I will take the socks you knitted to Monsieur Dubois, then I will meet my friends.” Louis looked at the clock. He still had plenty of time. The puppet show did not start for another hour.
“Here!” His mother handed Louis a small, brightly wrapped package. “And remember to wish Monsieur Dubois Joyeux Noël (Merry Christmas) and invite him again to have Christmas dinner with us.”
“He will not come, Maman. He will just smile and say that Christmas is a time for families as he does every year.”
“Too bad! Nothing is as sad as being old and alone at Christmastime. I do wish we could make him understand that our Christmas would be happier if we could share it with him.” Louis nodded politely, though he did not think that he would be any happier if Monsieur Dubois came for dinner. Christmas was perfect for Louis, just as it was.
“Hurry home as soon as the show is over, Louis. Grandpère (Grandfather) will be arriving soon.”
Louis smiled excitedly. “Do you think that Grandpère has finished my music box?”
“Perhaps,” his mother answered, “but do not ask him. He is always busy, and making a music box takes a long time.”
Louis was very proud of his grandfather, a fine craftsman who owned a shop in the city, where he repaired watches and clocks. In his spare time he had been making a music box for Louis, one that would play “La Marseillaise” (French national anthem).
Louis hurried to meet his friends. He decided to take the gift to Monsieur Dubois after the puppet show. He hastily stuffed the package into his pocket. His mother would not mind when he explained what he had done.
When the show was over, the children did not stop to visit with each other as they usually did. Christmas Eve was a special time, and they were all eager to get home. Outside, Louis talked for just a moment with the other boys. Then he remembered Monsieur Dubois and felt in his pocket. His eyes widened in distress. “The gift for Monsieur Dubois is gone!” he cried.
One after another Louis turned his pockets inside out. Followed by his friends, he ran back inside the hall where the puppet show had been. They searched the cloakroom, then the hall, looking up and down the aisles and beneath the seats. The package was not there.
“Maman will be angry and disappointed in me!” Louis said. “Even if I don’t tell her, I’m sure she will find out,” Louis said sadly.
When Louis got home, Grandpère had just arrived from the city, and Maman was smiling and hurrying about. Louis’s heart rose. He was lucky; he had only to remain silent. Maman was much too busy now to ask him about Monsieur Dubois.
His grandfather placed a hand on Louis’s shoulder. “Ah, how you have grown, mon petit (my little one)!” His dark eyes twinkled. “I have a surprise for you.”
“The music box!” Louis cried.
“Close your eyes,” Grandpère said.
Louis obeyed, smiling.
“Now!” Grandpère cried.
“La Marseillaise” tinkled and chimed from a small, beautifully carved music box, and—wonder of wonders—two tiny soldiers moved in a slow circle on top of the box.
Louis clapped his hands. “It’s wonderful, Grandpère! I have never had so fine a gift. No one in the world has so kind a grandpère as I.”
Grandpère’s eyes were bright. “And without you, my grandson, and your mother and father, I would be a lonely old man.”
Louis swallowed uncomfortably, for suddenly he saw the face of Monsieur Dubois, who had no one. All that evening, try as he might, he could not get the thought of the lonely old man out of his mind—not even when he placed his shoes before the fireplace so that Père Noël (Father Christmas) [Santa Claus] could put a gift or two in them. And when Louis awakened before daylight on Christmas morning, his first thoughts were of Monsieur Dubois. His heart was heavy. Even the music box on the table beside his bed did not help.
Suddenly Louis knew what he must do. He must take Monsieur Dubois a gift, a very fine gift, so that the old man would know that he was not forgotten at Christmas. He must go at once and be back before his parents and grandfather awakened.
As he dressed, Louis forced back a feeling of sadness. The music box was the only gift that he had that was fine enough for Monsieur Dubois.
It was still dark outside, and Louis had to ring several times before Monsieur Dubois opened the door.
“Joyeux Noël, Louis!” Monsieur Dubois greeted him. “Come in! Come in! You are early this morning.”
“Joyeux Noël, Monsieur.” Louis smiled. “I—I was supposed to bring your gift yesterday, but I have brought it for you today, instead.”
Louis wound the music box and placed it on the table. He stood back, listening to the tinkling music and watching the proud little soldiers. “Is it not beautiful!”
“Yes, Louis, very beautiful.” Monsieur Dubois’s eyes were thoughtful. “Now tell me, Louis, why did you bring me one of your gifts?”
Louis hung his head.
“Come, Louis. Tell me,” Monsieur Dubois insisted, smiling kindly.
Before he realized it, Louis told the whole story. “I—I’m sorry, Monsieur,” he finished. “I hoped that the music box was a fine enough gift to make up for my carelessness.”
“It is the finest gift that I have ever received, Louis,” Monsieur Dubois said softly. “But I want you to keep it for me. Each Christmas bring it here, and we will play it together.”
Louis’s face cleared. “You are not angry, Monsieur?”
“No, Louis. I am not angry.”
“And you will have Christmas dinner with us? Please, Monsieur!” Louis pleaded. “Our Christmas will be happier if we can share it with you,” Louis said, repeating his mother’s words. And, strangely, they were no longer just words. Now he understood them. Monsieur Dubois seemed to understand, too, for his face brightened like a Christmas candle.
“Wait for me, Louis,” he cried. “I will put on my finest suit.” Then Monsieur Dubois laughed. “Today, Louis, you and I have both learned something important. We have learned the real meaning of Christmas.”
Marie-Mai's 3rd album, Version 3.0 went gold 7 December! : )))) I'M soo happy!
Déjà loin is the next single to be released.
I'm sooo curious
I *me and my bro, actually
* visited Vienna on Saturday. It was a kinda last minute offer cause we were 'alarmed' 1 or 2 days before.
In the morning it was quite interesting how we were gonna get there, but we solved the problem and arrived there about 20 mins before the appointed time - which was 6.45.
and we had bad luck cause the bus was late about half an hour, blah. cause of misunderstanding. anyway, we got to the bus and arrived in Kőszeg just in 15 mins
While travelling, we saw a bit of Eisenstadt and St Pölten.
First we saw Castle Schönbrunn in Vienna. It was amazing ad beautiful.
We climbed up to the great monument and the view was spectecular as heaven
the garden was astonishing as well, I liked it very much.
There are two obelisks at the front and at the top there are Napoleon's eagles. Then we got by on foot in the town. We saw the following sights: Opera-house, Stephansdom - this was partly under construction but was so nice.
Anyways, that was funny when in front of this church Greenpeace campaigners started to protest.
Everybody in green T-shirt and they were playing music
mostly w/drums.
nothing offensive happened, they were peaceful protestors.
Then we got to Hofburg. There were soooo cute Spanish horses, gosh, I wanted to see them more accurately but I think we would've got lost in the end, but that's coming later.
So the horses were very nice and some of them were dressed up as Santa horses. ![]()
this was actually pretty funny
From Hofburg we had access to the Square of the Heroes. There are two magnificent equestrian statues of Prince Eugène of Savoy and Archduke Karl. And Hitler did his speech here in front of thousands of people. Then we marched across the Gate of Heroes. We saw the Maria Teresia Square, Museum of Fine Arts and the Parliament. The City-hall is a huge building and this was the scene of the famous market held in the period of Advent. There was a huge Advent Wreath with one completely made candle *I mean the flame was put there*. The trees were awesome cause illuminated hearts and goblins were hanging downwards.
However, the crowd was nearly unbearable. At the beginning it was normal comparing to the traffic and circulation that came a few hours later. We were looking around and purchased some souvenirs.
We had free time as well, and I wanted to..you know, discover the city a bit, but we were afraid that we were gonna get lost, so we didn't wander so far away from the meeting point.
Traffic: Carts are common there; I saw 2 Ferraris
one of them had to slow down b/c of a mentioned cart, that was so funny, haha xD
when you were standing at a pedestrian crossing a huge crowd was standing on the other side and you felt like they were intending to invade you while crossing.
Vienna is constructed like a circle w/ many avanues leading towards the centre.This road-system is called Ring, anyway.
Anything else missed: there was a Milka stall or sg like that for children and they had to sing and sometimes a couldn't stop laughing..
am I wicked? not really, it just came out that way
ehm..I don't know,well, we saw some other interesting places, too, i.e. the Sacher Café. you know the cake, right?![]()
In the market there were dreamcathers like in New Moon.![]()
People: Our tour-guide performed quite well, so we got to know the places w/different points of views. There were some really kind and likeable people but some annoying ones as well. xD A family, to be accurate, cause the 2 girls were always complaining about everything causethey wanted to go shopping..then why did they get it that far? I can't understand this attitude, to tell the truth...
All in all I liked this trip so much and hope to experience ones like that in the future.
Je rêve d’une terre sereine
Là où les gens balancent leurs peines
Je rêve sans fausses notes sans ratures
Je rêve au delà des blessures
Je rêve d’un monde qui s’élève
Au milieu des champs où l’on crève
Je rêve qu’on puisse changer le temps
Lancer contre le vent
Ca fait du temps quand on y pense
Qu’on aimerait tant avoir une chance
De changer des choses
Qu’on nous impose
Afin d’éviter qu’on explose
Ca fait du temps qu’on nous embrasse
Avec des maux/mots qui laissent des traces
Ca fait longtemps qu’on rêve d’un monde pour nous garder
Ca fait longtemps qu’on rêve d’un monde pour nous garder
Je rêve de gens qui se réveillent
Dans leur p’tit nid, qu’ils s’émerveillent
Je rêve de ville non pollué
Afin que l’air puisse circuler
Je rêve d’un ciel bien étoilé
Là où les cons sont nettoyés
Je rêve qu’on puisse changer le temps
Lancer contre le vent
Car ça fait du temps quand on y pense
Qu’on aimerait tant avoir une chance
De changer les choses
Qu’on nous impose
Afin d’éviter qu’on explose
Ca fait du temps qu’on nous embrasse
Avec des maux/mots qui laissent des traces
Ca fait longtemps qu’on rêve d’un monde pour nous garder
Ca fait longtemps qu’on rêve d’un monde pour nous garder
Ca fait longtemps qu’on rêve d’un monde pour nous sauver
Happy Bday Ana! ((:
