"All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered."

Paradises

Mi hanno chiesto quale sia la mia canzone preferita nel vasto repertorio di "Weird Al" Yankovic. Non ho particolari dubbi…

Alix Harrow’s The Once and Future Witches

I wouldn’t have started this book on my own, and for many reasons. One of them is that in Italy it’s marketed as Young Adult Fiction, and I hate most of that stuff, and the other is its imposing length: 600 pages. I was distracted,

    Io ho sempre adorato “Like a Surgeon”, ma ora scopro che me ne sono persa qualcuna, magari dopo aver recuperato il tempo perduto cambio idea…

    …comunque “Amish Paradise” è uno spettacolo, non posso darti torto!

    SpiderCi, no, in realtà mi piace abbastanza anche se non è il mio genere preferito (ma è difficile definire quale sia *__^)

    Lupo, anche “Like a Surgeon” in effetti non è male (come la coppia “Eat it!” e “Fat”). Conosci “E-bay”? Qui un video amatoriale.

    Allora, mi sono aggiornato un po’, e ho aggiunto altre quattro canzono che mi fanno morire:

    Ebay (splendida, nulla da eccepire)

    Spam (perchè mi piace parecchio l’originale e questa versione è azzeccatissima)

    Ode to a Superhero (ma forse è meglio “The saga begins”)

    e infine, per tecnica di esecuzione, posso eleggere la mia preferita:

    “Another one rides the bus”!

    Con fisarmonica e trombette è semplicemente geniale!

    “The saga begins” è GENIALE! Ma vogliamo parlare della “pubblicità progresso” Don’t download this song? (eccezionale video qui)
