Svenn:
Never heard a Leonar Cohen song, Stefan? Well, you should listen to "I'm Your Man" (198
. Many good songs on that one!
My mother`s got a best of, but I never did pay much attention... at that time (when I was an oasis-loving teenager still living at home) I thought it was boring shit... nowadays I like singer/songwriters; I`ll have a listen, I`m sure I`d apreciate it more now than I did all those years ago!

does anyone here like a-ha?

Hey Stefan.
Long time, no talk to.
You make an excellent point here in your post that I've quoted here....and you'll be amazed at how true that is. A Euro friend and I have been having long discussions lately about that very thing........how we've come to appreciate later in life, the stuff that bored the crap out of us when we were younger........mostly the stuff our parents listened to, of course.
: Good on ya for having an open mind about your mom's musical interests.
Give her stuff another go and let us know what ya think.
Otherwise, I assume you're doing well?

с днем рождения Kathy!
О, спасибо! When I was in Berlin about two years ago, people there were convinced that we still have no electricity and that we still believe in Lenin
They were also surprised to know that even though I'm russian, I've nrever seen a bear. Do you really think that bears hang around the streets of Moscow (which is suposed to be in snow for the whole year) like cats or dogs?
Another excellent point! You may find it at least a bit comforting
: to know that your culture is not alone in experiencing stereotyping.
As an American, and particularly a Southern American, I'm continually amazed at the notions that some (many?
non-Americans have about life here.....as it is AND as it "was",
: ESPECIALLY here in the South.
: Seems many Euro schools teach "American history" that's not exactly, shall we say....."accurate", and to compound the problem, they tend to leave their students with the impression that "the past" is still "the present" here, if that makes sense....similar to what you're suggesting.
I'm amazed at the amount of time I spend dispelling some of those antiquated notions held by non-American friends. Gets a bit disheartening sometimes....but worth it in the end. So we keep plugging away.
:
Hang in there.

I LOVE BOOBS!!!!
Now THERE'S a newsflash.

Svenn:
Everywhere I go, Dorothy goes. I think I have a stalker!

silver moondog:
Leonard Cohen... that`s cool! I should start listening to him as soon as possible cos the girl I`ve got a crush on is a fan of his, and I told her that I like his music too (that was a dirty lie... I don`t know a single song of his
); I hope she doesn`t find out before I had the chance to listen to some of his "melancholic folk-songs" - (quoting her
)!
You'd better hope she doesn't find this thread, honey.
-
Hmmm............it occurs to me that perhaps I should check in here more often........

dorothy:
Yes, It is always spanking time for Svenn.
As for stalking he loves it. he would go crazy if I was not around. He knows I make his day bright.
svenn:
Yeah, I'd go crazy without you..
See, he is only kidding. Also, I go to many board and many places. I talk to alot people.

oh my, Stefan, you have to listen to Hunting High and Low and Stay On These Roads from their live album How Can I Sleep With Your Voice In My Head (great title, eh?) and their fantastic cover of the Everly Brothers' Crying In The Rain. I believe their live album is just perfect. I have been obsessed since last night, I hadn't listened to them in a long time. I'm now checking more of their stuff, although I don't really like the sound of their studio albums.

He did his latest album in 2004, called Dear Heather. I still haven't made up my mind what I think of it. I like his album before that one, 2001's Ten New Songs. That is a beautiful record. But still, his old stuff is best
-
Btw, A-ha is a great group. I have 3 albums of theirs. Great stuff! Hunting high and low is great. so is East of the sun,west of the moon

I am going watching Regina Spektor tonight ( see avater)
I go to dozens of concerts every year, and i think Regina is up there amongst the best i have seen. Very talented, very good- looking...and seems a fantastic person also.

yeah she`s great! You`ll have a nice evening in the company of a beautiful woman
-
Everyone seems totaly focused on her when she is performing. People are not chattering all night like at some concerts. I have noticed also how many people are happy and smiling when she is on also.....shes lovely ! Not many singers could get away with..." the people next door are f****** to one of MY songs" and make it sound cute and witty, instead of vulgar !
-
depends on what her neighbours look like! nevermind, stupid joke
-
some of my biggest heroes are back!!! listen to their new single "Weapon Of Choice", yeah! http://www.blackrebelmotorcycleclub.com/
