Coincidências I

...a passear por Sintra entrou-me esta música pelos ouvidos dentro, mansinha, vinda de uma enoteca....já a conhecia e descobri no dia seguinte que a tenho também nesta versão, do original...

...é como quando aprendemos algo novo, uma palavra ou um qualquer assunto e a partir desse momento parece que encontramos esse novo facto em todo o lado...

...acordamos...

PS: a música de que falo está, depois de clicar no 1º link, em vídeos_ A noite passada

Desafio literário

Em blogues que tenho visitado nos últimos dias, surge um desafio literário recorrente:

1. Pegar no livro mais próximo
2. Abri-lo na página 161
3. Procurar a 5ª frase completa
4. Colocar a frase no blog
5. Não escolher a melhor frase nem o melhor livro (usar o mais próximo)
6. Passar o desafio a cinco pessoas

Ninguém me desafiou, mas apeteceu-me, e deu nisto:

"Desde que nos tornámos uma espécie tão potencialmente perigosa, com o desenvolvimento cultural de armas mortais artificiais, não é de estranhar que possuamos uma gama tão extraordinária de sinais de apaziguamento."

in O Macaco Nú, de desmond morris

Fica o desafio a quem nos visitar

In The Dark Nina Simone

Presentes.Futuros.Realidades.Virtualidades.

Oh yeah what we're living in (let me tell ya)
It' a wonder man can eat at all
When things are big
That should be small
Who can tell what magic spells we'll be doing for us.
And I'm giving all my love to this world
Only to be told I can't see, I can't breathe
No more will we be
And nothing's gonna change the way we live
Cuz we can always take and never give
And now that things are changing for the worse,
See, it's a crazy world we're living in
And I just can't see that half of us immersed in sin Is all we have to give these

Futures made of virtual insanity now always seem, to be governed by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh now there is no sound for we all live underground

And I'm thinking in what a mess we're in
Hard to know when to begin
If I could slip the sickly ties that earthly man has made
And now every mother can choose the color of her child
That's not nature's way
Well that's what they said yesterday
There's nothing left to do but pray
I think it's time I found a new religion
Whoaaa it's so insane to synthesize another strain
There's something in these futures that we have to be told.

Futures made of virtual insanity now always seem, to be governed by this love we have
For useless, twisting of our then new technology
Oh now there is no sound for we all live underground

Now there's no sound if we all live underground
And now it's virtual insanity
Forget your virtual reality
Oh, there's nothing so bad, I know yeah

Oh, this virtual insanity, we're living in,
Has got to change, yeah
Things will never be the same
And I can't go on
While we're living in oh, oh virtual insanity
Oh, this world has got to change
Cos I just, I just can't keep going on, it was virtual,
Virtual insanity that we're living in, that we're living in
That virtual insanity is what it is

Futures made of virtual insanity now always seem to be governed by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh there is no sound for we all live underground

Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity

Virtual Insanity is what we're living in

Nina Simone - Feeling Good

NINA SIMONE > Feeling Good
Anthony newley, leslie bricusse


Birds flying high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Reeds driftin on by you know how I feel


Its a new dawn
Its a new day
Its a new life
For me
And Im feeling good


Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
Blossom in the tree you know how I feel


(refrain)


Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, dont you know Butterflies all havin fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done
Thats what I mean


And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me


Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel
