What Was She Thinking?!

If men loved power tools before... they're gonna love them even more now. The biggest departure from reality in this video, besides the models, is the fact that the amount of noise these tools generate can be deafening! Enjoy!

This just goes to show that the more things change, the more they remain the same.

One of the top songs of the 1980s, and one of my favorites, Foreigner sings along with the New Jersey Mass Choir.

Happy Valentine's Day, everybody!

My Haroula CD came the other day! Squeeeee! I was able to locate Haris [Alexiou] II, one of her first albums, and one which I had in record/LP form when I was a teenager. I played it all the time. When I get a chance, I'll post one or two songs from the CD. Meanwhile, I'd love to get my hands on some of Zoi Papadopoulou's music. And I think it's great that two generations come together like this; Zoi has promise. Enjoy!

Or so goes the song Tuzna Pesma [Sad Song] by Serbian duo Neverne Bebe. Someone was kind enough to translate the lyrics from Serbian to English and upload the song to YouTube. Enjoy!

And here are the original lyrics, in Serbian, for those playing at home.

Rec, jedna i kraj
bol, gospodski sjaj
gazila bih duboku reku
samo da nadjem zvezdu neku
koja na tebe potseca

Zid,izmedju nas
noc, pruza mi spas
htela bih da ti zovem ime 
plakala bih al' nemam s kime
ubila bih i dosta s time 
znaj, ipak znaj da

Tuzna pesma na sto nacina
svetom putuje
stara slika naseg vremena
jos uvek tuguje
a kisna jutra opet pocinju
otkad sam otisla
smejem se a suze naviru
kurva sudbina

Zid,izmedju nas...

I have been privileged to have access to a vast amount of Serbian and Croatian music, some traditional and some contemporary. I love just about all of it, but my favorites are Gibonni, Zdravko Colic, Prljavo Kazaliste, Film and Neverne Bebe.
