Jamaican Breeze

Please, be my guest and just listen to this live version of Jamaican Days, a song of Skye Edwards's first solo album Mind How You Go. I listened for a long time to her first attempta s a solo singer, and her voice again succeeded in picking me to fly softly in the air.. like when she used to be the smooth rocket base for the trip-hop well known group Morcheeba.
Hope you'll enjoy travelling a bit with her..

Protest Songs - Italy (Part II)

I have been listening to that peculiar interpretation of this classic protest song for months, a few years ago.
The communist hymns, even if history has shown their practical "limits", have always embodied inalienable ideological principles...
More than ever, it is important to know where we belong.. and to keep all our senses and our reason sharp and aware of what is a real, modern and progressive liberal program instead of a criminal attempt to deadly control the destiny of a whole nation, like Fidel Castro did for almost 50 years. At the beginning of his mandate, I had faith in Hugo Chavez' view for Latin America's destiny.. But the years are passing and I can only see the same drifts ready to happen with him. Who can today build a new vision for a real liberal, democratic and responsible politic in front of the american neo-liberal pattern that has completely invaded our ways of life all over the occidental countries..

Hum, I guess this space is too limited to begin such a reflexion and it would need more references.. So let's just listen to the music, babes.

Bloody Great Paul Thomas Anderson

Again, with There Will Be Blood, P. T. Anderson shows how brilliant he can be.
He's so far away from any of his competitors in USA that it's quite overwhelming to get full aware of his poetic and inspired cinematic overview and control...
I urge you to go and get a deep breath of the latest american masterpiece, with a Daniel Day Lewis that has probably found here the role of his life.. (Funny to consider that, in a peculiar way, There Will Be Blood is sort of a documentary about his very own way to consider what it is to be an actor !).



Et en plus P. T. Anderson est beau, pffff.



P. S. - Grazie mille per l'invito, M.

Paradoxically/Honoré à l'Honneur

Just because those two Christophe Honoré's best-to-date movies keep on living constantly in me, paradoxically as some kind of comforting and soothing memento mori.

Somehow, someday, I have to find out why they do interact with me so deeply...

Awaiting, please be my guests and just watch these inescapable musical moments.

My pleasure.

Tender For Ever


Specialmente Per Il Ragazzo di Pisa

Ecco, per gli incontri del caso... on the web
Clicchi sul titolo, ragazzo, ed ascolti...

...E poi, guardi a questo estratto del più bel film nel mondo, secondo lei...
Mentre sperando che non accadrà a noi come a loro !



E perché è il più bel film del mondo per me, questo :



E questo, uno del più meravigliosamente triste :



In conclusione, cosa il cinema popolare italiano ci spedi più pittoresco :



Così, noi siamo tutti i due felice. ; -)

Radiant With Joy



That is exactly how I feel when I take a look at this video from Army Ja Danni's I wanna love you tender.
Thanks to SacreJojo..
Enjoy it too, again and again and again..

A Darker Mika

It's been a sweet surprise to discover Patrick Wolf, as to find a bitter taste in a candy under the different stratums of sugar.. The bitter reveals all the flavour.. And you never let it go after you find out how precious it is for your senses...
Again, please enjoy Augustine and let the music play (by clicking on the title as always...).
