Have a beautiful Valentine's Day

My wife is not mine, she is of her mind. Even though she thinks so, she doesn't need me. That's what I like about her.
She doesn't want to be my world, but she has me in her desires. I can see it in her eyes, the clear presence of our adventures.
She flies with her fantastic birds, agnostics, friendly, by fields of reasons. And when she comes back she brings me sweets.
She does not show herself in the window, with her body illuminated. But she shows the universe, to hunting animals, when she goes down to the market.
She descends from the hair of the stars, right under the ghosts' noses, that she learned to disassemble. And she ends up turning them into toys.
My wife is not mine, she is of her mind. Even though she thinks so, she doesn't need me. That's what I like about her.
She is the captain of her ship.

god gets you back

Good night, have a nice weekend :)

the song for Speedy Jean Marie

Carminho at Tiny Desk

Carminho is one of the finest singers of Fado, an old portuguese music genre. 
I'll just leave this video here. Please use the subtitles to understand the lyrics, they are pretty accurate. 

Heart of Gold revisited

"Heart of Gold" is a treasure.
Jane Weaver's version of that song, is undoubtedly one the best covers of all but, it is shamefully forgotten even in covers lists about this song. It was recorded in 2010 for the album Harvest Revisited released by Mojo Magazine in February 2011, celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Harvest.

On 21st September 2024, Neil Young performed "Heart of Gold" at Farm Aid.

And here, Neil Young again, playing it at BBC Radio Theatre, London, on 23th February 1971. This BBC concert was included in the album "Harvest 50th Anniversary Edition" released on December 2, 2022.

David Lynch

David Lynch, 1946/01/20 - 2025/01/16.
A multitalented artist and the filmmaker of dreams and nightmares.
Suffering from emphysema since at least 2022, Lynch was evacuated from his home due to the Southern California wildfires happening since 7 of January. "These events preceded a terminal decline in his health", Deadline Hollywood reported.
He wrote many songs, mostly lyrics for songs to be played in his movies.
"Sycamore Trees" and "The World Spins" were some of those songs brilliantly used in his weird dreams put in films.






Thank you very much Mr Lynch.
