...I Fall For You...
...Sébastien Lefebvre...
Something happened and you know it
I can't really tell you how
When I stare at you for hours
I don't care what comes around
And I fall for you
I fall for you
I fall for you
Tonight
I hope you feel the same
There's nothing wrong with being here now
We have things to talk about
And my excuses I believe them
I don't have to justify

...Colours Of The Wind...
So since discovering Sara Ramirez is also a musician I've been listening to more of her music. I came across a cover of Colours Of The Wind from Pocahontas, which I absolutely fell in-love with as it is one of my favourite songs from that movie and my childhood...

...I Will Follow...
...Sara Ramirez...
Pleasantly surprised to find that Sara Ramirez, whom I associate with Dr. Callie Torres from Grey's Anatomy is actually a pretty amazing singer as well. Doesn't hurt this being a really beautiful song to boot!

...Radio Nowhere...
...Bruce Springsteen...
I was tryin' to find my way home
But all I heard was a drone
Bouncing off a satellite
Crushin' the last lone American night
This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
I just want to feel some rhythm...
...In The Ghetto..
...Lisa Marie Presley and Elvis Presley...
♥
As the snow flies
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'
A poor little baby child is born
In the ghetto
And his mama cries
'cause if there's one thing that she don't need
it's another hungry mouth to feed
In the ghetto
People, don't you understand
the child needs a helping hand
or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day
Take a look at you and me,
are we too blind to see,
do we simply turn our heads
and look the other way
Well the world turns
and a hungry little boy with a runny nose
plays in the street as the cold wind blows
In the ghetto
And his hunger burns
so he starts to roam the streets at night
and he learns how to steal
and he learns how to fight
In the ghetto
Then one night in desperation
a young man breaks away
He buys a gun, steals a car,
tries to run, but he don't get far
And his mama cries
As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man
face down on the street with a gun in his hand
In the ghetto
As her young man dies,
on a cold and gray Chicago mornin',
another little baby child is born
In the ghetto

...Streets Of Philadelphia...
...Bruce Springsteen...
I was bruised and battered and I couldn't tell
What I felt
I was unrecognizable to myself
I saw my reflection in a window I didn't know
My own face
Oh brother are you gonna leave me
Wastin´away
On the streets of Philadelphia
I walked the avenue till my legs felt like stone
I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone
At night I could hear the blood in my veins
Black and whispering as the rain
On the streets of Philadelphia
Ain't no angel gonna greet me
Its just you and I my friend
My clothes don't fit me no more
I walked a thousand miles
Just to slip the skin
The night has fallen, I'm lyin awake
I can feel myself fading away
So receive me brother with your faithless kiss
Or will we leave each other alone like this
On the streets of Philadelphia

...Feeling The Love...
...For Promise This...
...Really quite feeling this song at the moment...
In fact after catching some of Piers Morgan's Life Stories with Cheryl Cole I'm quite diggin' her as the entertainer and on a human level I feel for her position, with everything going on in around her life, most of which is lived through public scrutiny. Plus...Gotta love those Geordie's, they're fighters! - My beloved Gran happens to be a proud Geordie too!

...Life Is Sweet...
Pat Benatar
...Life is sweet, sweet as strawberry wine
And bitter too, like the seeds on the vine
And you are that, you are more than sublime
And bitter too, lovin' you, has been an experience...

...Think About It...
Is man one of God's blunders?
Or is God one of man's blunders?

...Korda...
"Forget the camera,
Forget the lens,
Forget all of that.
With any four dollar camera you can capture the best picture."

...Psaxno Tin Alitheia...
...Helena Paparizou...Searching For The Truth...
Really Loving Helena Paparizou's new tunes! Think she is a great contemporary Greek artist! Since bringing the Eurovision Song Contest to Athens, Greece for the first ever time in 2006 (Her song My Number 1 was the winning song in Ukraine in 2005) it's been nothing but increasing success for her! Love this woman!!!

...Studio Ghibli...
My cousin has recently got me into watching works from Studio Ghibli, the Japanese animation studio. To date I have seen Howl's Moving Castle, The Cat Returns, My Neighbour Totoro and Spirited Away. All of them have been really good. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed them! The animation style is simply beautiful. Not sure which I preferred out of all of them. Though I loved the characters in The Cat Returns and Spirited Away was such a beautiful story, In fact I want to watch it again! Though I'm not sure why but the lead character in Spirited Away reminds of someone - maybe it's just the voice????? Hmmmm I'm not sure but I just have this weird feeling of familiarity with the main character Chihiro Ogino. Either way familiar voice or not it is a brilliant film.
The film follows Chihiro as she and her parents move to their new home in the Japanese countryside. On route they take a shortcut and accidentally enter a world of spirits with her parents who help themselves to some lunch after the long journey and are subsequently turned into pigs. A mysterious stranger known as Haku helps Chihiro to get a job in the bathhouse to the spirits while she tries to find a way to free her parents before they become the main course for the guests of the bathhouse...
I created a hero who is an ordinary girl, someone with whom the audience can sympathize. It's not a story in which the characters grow up, but a story in which they draw on something already inside them, brought out by the particular circumstances. I want my young friends to live like that, and I think they, too, have such a wish.
