What are you listening to?

[xSilverPhinx]

When you were standing in the wake of devastation
When you were waiting on the edge of the unknown
And with the cataclysm raining down, insides crying save me now
You were there impossibly alone
Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
You build up hope but failure's all you've known
Remember all the sadness and frustration
And let it go, let it go
And in the burst of light that blinded every angel
As if the sky had blown the heavens into stars
You felt the gravity of temper grace falling into empty space
No one there to catch you in their arms
Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
You build up hope but failure's all you've known
Remember all the sadness and frustration
And let it go, let it go
Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
You build up hope but failure's all you've known
Remember all the sadness and frustration
And let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
You build up hope but failure's all you've known
Remember all the sadness and frustration
And let it go, let it go

Here is a little kid with enormous talent. She is a Norwegian or some other Viking type that is a torch singer of Mostly American pop music.

She is a phenom..............https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTcvvO6B3Io&list=RDMMjqmS29CXNZ8&index=6

Brits spell words oddly and they drive on the wrong side of the road.  But they do know how to make music and fun. Here is the BBC proms .........https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PqyzQnOnvw

I'm in a hippie, Peter Paul and Mary-Jane, mood...But in Spanish.

Here's my favorite Cuban troubadour: Silvio Rodriguez.
Cancion Del Elegido
The Chosen One's Song.

Every time a story is told, one talks about an old man, a child or oneself.

But my story is a difficult one, I won't speak about a common man, I'll tell you the story of a being from another world,
of an animal from a galaxy.
It's a story related to the course of the Milky way.
It's a burried story,
it's about a being from nowhere.

(He) Was born from a storm
In the sun of a night
Of the penultimate month.
Went from planet to planet
Searching for drinking water.
Perhaps searching for life
Perhaps searching for death
One can never know.
Perhaps searching for silhouettes
Or something similar
that could be adorable,
--At least lovable...
Kissable...
Polite.

He discovered that King Solomon's mines were found in the heavens
not in the scorching Africa
--the way people thought.
But stones are cold
and he was interested in warmth and happiness.
The jewels had no soul,
they were just mirrors,
shinny colors.
So he finally came down to war.
Pardon me,
I meant to say,
He came down to earth.

He learned the story right away.
He felt crushed crystals in his head,
and he realized that war
was the future's peace.
The most terrible things we learn right away
and the beautiful ones cost us our lives.

I last saw him go
amidst smoke and machineguns, happy and naked.
He was killing scoundrels
With his cannon from the future.
He was killing scoundrels
With his cannon from the future.





You guys wanna hear Puff The Magic Dragon, instead?
