Cold hands, cold feet, warm pussy! ...oops sorry, I meant warm heart! ;-p


Absolutely every guys I've been with have always complained about me having cold hands or cold feet in bed.
This is never going to change, get used to it!
I know this Black Lips song isn't about this kind of "cold hands", but I love the Black Lips and just bought a ticket to see them soon :-) so that's what poped in my mind, sorry! ;-)

...and I'm stupid for loving him!


The guy I've been dating lately made me listen to that song...
Maybe as a prevention?... I mean a way to tell me he's still looking for someone better than me?!?!?
Anyway, Willie Nelson's telling at the end of the song, he originally wanted to entitle it: "Stupid". But it didn't sound as beautiful as crazy.
This is true, but I think the meaning of being stupid is what matches best, so for me it's Stupid!
Stupid for feeling so lonely.
Stupid for feeling so blue.
I knew that he'd love me as long as he wanted.
Then one day, he'd leave me for somebody else.
And I'm worried. Why the hell do I let myself worried about us.
Still wondering, what in the world did I (not) do.
I'm so super stupid, for thinking that my love could hold him.
I'm stupid for trying, for crying, for lying and pretending.
And I'm stupid for still loving him.

Jour pour jour!

If I believed in destiny or all this shit, I would say it was meant to be because of the date it is today... But as I don't I'll just say it is a weird hasard, just a beautiful coincidence... Anyway it could not have been more perfect because today is the day! This day only happens once a year so why on this special day, I don't know, I can't tell, it is just a magic day! It's our time of the season for loving as is Colin Blunstone's voice echoing on my mind ;-) http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nqnuI9K5ct4

Roller derby, baby!

I am a roller girl!!! ;-)
I'm having Roller Derby training tonight. So here's the song in my mind.
(and I'm sure you'll all enjoy watching Anna Karina, such a pretty lady!)


Anna Karina - Rollergirl
"...je suis la seule qui reste seule. Il m'arrivera jamais rien... Si j'continue comme ça, c'est foutu pour moi!" (I am the only one staying on her own. Nothing will ever happen to me... If I carry on this way, that's fucked up for me!)

Royal!!

The funniest thing I've heard this week: Two guys were walking behind me, one asked the other: "D'you mean Queen the band or Elizabeth?"

But you know I'm here even though I'm not!

Today's song was recorded in 1979 for the film "Les Miroirs". Songwritter is Frederic Botton (Black Botton), orchestration is by Alain Goraguer (who worked on R.Laloux's animation films The Fantastic Planet and Gandahar (Light Years)), and the voices are Annie Girardot's and Dominic Briand's.

Save your sorrow... (part 1)

Lately I had some interest for Amanda Lear... I think I like her because she's the girl who's dumped David Bowie to start a disco career... You can't be more "beautiful loser" than that!! ♥

It started to get this "facination" after my brother offered me the second issue of Schnock, for my birthday:

I've enjoy very much, reading the 36pages about her friendship with Dali, her little love affaire with Bowie and with Brian Jones, her cool life when she was working as a top model with Nico and Twiggy, her disco career and her jet-set life, her work at Berlusconi's tv channel, her success at the theatre, etc.
Amanda Lear is a kind of "UFO" to me... She's such a versatil person.
She's done such completely different things in her lifetime.
And she's a mystery... after all these years, everyone's still wondering if she was born a girl or a boy?.. Is she or is she not a transsexual... I don't think she is, cause if she was that would have been the best kept secret of all times! haha...
But it's true the masculin lines of her face and her very low voice make people speak and write about it... Some say that she is the person who inspired the androgynous Ziggy Stardust to Bowie... Who knows?... I only think as short as they've been together for, they just had impact in each others life and then carried on in different directions after she's dumped him. After all, she was right, it was an impossible love story, he had a son and was still married; moreover, he was wearing even more make-up than she was, so she certainly had enough of washing the pillow cases ;-)
Though I think they looked lovely as a couple... Watch this footage (Bowie was performing "Sorrow", a cover of the Merseys, for NBC's Midnight Special. The show was filmed at the Marquee Club, in London, on November 16th, 1973. They are on a chess board, Amanda is the dark queen and he is the white knight. A little speech between them is introducing the song), this is quite touching:



And save your stupid too... (part 2)

...Then I started to become Amanda Lear... well, I had her voice for few days, haha...
Because I had a chest infection (and I'm still coughing as I'm writing this), so my voice started to get lower...
When it happens, I'm usually telling I have Terminator's voice and enjoy saying "I'll be back!" anytime I leave a room.
A friend once said I more have a Marianne Faithfull voice... aww.. (certainly he only said that to be nice to me, cause he knew I like Marianne Faithfull, or just cause he had enough of my Terminator joke).

But having Amanda Lear in mind after reading Schnock, I thought, it's in fact more of an Amanda Lear's voice that I had. And next time, maybe I should take the advantage of having this low voice to record a cover of one of her songs... (she has few good ones but mainly wasted by some heavy disco rhythms...)

Here are her best ones (in a chronological order):

Trouble (english version of La Bagarre) - 1976
