Kind of weird, kind of cool. The video is in spanish, but in general you can get the idea: instead of having plastic surgery, get a real body exercising.

Mother’s journey

At this point, it doesn’t really surprise me anymore whenever I find some talented kid at youtube.

Mother’s journey is part of the soundtrack of the german movie Goodbye Lenin (highly recommended). The music for that movie was composed by one of my favorite musicians: Yann Tiersen. Yes, he’s the same guy that composed the music for Amelie. I hope you like it. And wow, that kid has talent.

Tool-Schism

Tool has to be my favorite band of all time. Their music is awesome, and the visuals of their videos, though kinda creepy, it’s espectacular (also, check out sober).

So, I leave you with some music. It seems like this blog it’s lacking its daily dosis of posts, but it’s just that I’ve been really busy these days. Don’t worry though, and come back often, as there’s always something new here.

Does anyone know of a good, fast and lightweight php software for a gallery?

    Years ago, I thought Nirvana was the coolest group in the world. My taste in music has evolved a lot, but I still consider Nirvana as an awesome group, no matter what you think. So, lets start with Frances farmer will have her revenge on Seattle:

    You let me violate you, you let me desecrate you
    You let me penetrate you, you let me complicate you
    Help me I broke apart my insides, help me Ive got no
    Soul to tell
    Help me the only thing that works for me, help me get
    Away from myself
    I want to f**k you like an animal
    I want to feel you from the inside
    I want to f**k you like an animal
    My whole existence is flawed
    You get me closer to god
    You can have my isolation, you can have the hate that
    It brings
    You can have my absence of faith, you can have my
    Everything
    Help me tear down my reason, help me its your sex i
    Can smell
    Help me you make me perfect, help me become somebody
    Else
    I want to f**k you like an animal
    I want to feel you from the inside
    I want to f**k you like an animal
    My whole existence is flawed
    You get me closer to god
    Through every forest, above the trees
    Within my stomach, scraped off my knees
    I drink the honey inside your hive
    You are the reason I stay alive

    This is one of my favorite videos and songs of all times. For some reason, it makes me cry….well, not really, but still, it’s a touching song, a masterpiece. It is supposed to be inspired by the novel The Famished Road. I’ve never read that book, but I guess I will have to now.

    This is what Thom Yorke says about the song:

    Street Spirit is our purest song, but I didn’t write it. It wrote itself. We were just its messengers; its biological catalysts. Its core is a complete mystery to me, and, you know, I wouldn’t ever try to write something that hopeless. All of our saddest songs have somewhere in them at least a glimmer of resolve. Street Spirit has no resolve. It is the dark tunnel without the light at the end. It represents all tragic emotion that is so hurtful that the sound of that melody is its only definition. We all have a way of dealing with that song. It’s called detachment. Especially me; I detach my emotional radar from that song, or I couldn’t play it. I’d crack. I’d break down on stage. That’s why its lyrics are just a bunch of mini-stories or visual images as opposed to a cohesive explanation of its meaning. I used images set to the music that I thought would convey the emotional entirety of the lyric and music working together. That’s what’s meant by ‘all these things are one to swallow whole’. I meant the emotional entirety, because I didn’t have it in me to articulate the emotion. I’d crack…

    do you prefer the acoustic version?

    Let’s get it on

    Nevermind the looks of this guy, he actually did a pretty good version of Let’s get it on…it was something like summertime. The people just loved this performance on Showtime at the Apollo.

    However, if you still prefered this awesome song performed by Marvin Gaye, here you have it: Let’s get it on
