POPSHomeland Security confiscates Songwriter Hard Drive Take a guess at the nature of the songs. From the article: "And though Walla's laughing when he mentions Guantánamo, he's not joking when he adds that his record — which he's calling Field Manual — is "very political," packed with songs about issues both foreign ("The Score" tackles the war in Iraq) and domestic ("Everyone Needs a Home" deals with the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina; "Sing Again" is about so-called "morning after" pills and whether they're a form of contraception or abortion). Easy listening, this is not."

POPSForemost Irish Singer/Songwriter DIES. Read of an exception life This was an exceptional Man. He left school at 11.5 years. He was severely dyslexic. He could not READ nor WRITE with difficulty signing his name. Despite this, he was an exceptionally talented song writer. He had a most unusual voice and was best in duets particularly with his daughter. It was while working as a labourer that he came in contact with asbestos that has now killed him 35 years later. He knew he was dying but thought he had longer. Please go into his site and hear his new single for a flavour of how much poorer we are for his passing. If sufficient interest is shown, I'll post further clips on Christie.

POPSThe Saddest Sad Songs Of All Time! I picked a few of my favourites. See the list and lyrics at the site. I couldn't get through life without music as a backdrop. Where would we be without it? If you need a rest from politics, just copy/paste a title and go youtubing . Even sad songs can make you happy. I heard this song when I was a little girl and my Dad told me it was about a dog (that probably drowned) and I bawled my eyes out! I still do! :D :cry: :cry: Anyway, remember. Jumping off cliffs not allowed! . ;) Clip Song (Not sad, even!)

POPSSappho's poetry Her style was sensual and melodic; primarily songs of love, yearning, and reflection. Most commonly the target of her affections was female, often one of the many women sent to her for education in the arts. She nurtured these women, wrote poems of love and adoration to them, and when they eventually left the island to be married, she composed their wedding songs. That Sappho's poetry was not condemned in her time for its homoerotic content (though it was disparaged by scholars in later centuries) suggests that perhaps love between women was not persecuted then as it has been in more recent times. Especially in the last century, Sappho has become so synonymous with woman-love that two of the most popular words to describe female homosexuality--lesbian and sapphic have derived from her. Plato elevated her from the status of great lyric poet to one of the muses.

POPSJacques Brel - Le Dernier Repas last verse last meal: Après mon dernier repas Je veux que l'on m'installe Assis seul comme un roi Accueillant ses vestales. Dans ma pipe je brûlerai Mes souvenirs d'enfance Mes rêves inachevés Mes restes d'espérance .. Et je ne garderai Pour habiller mon âme Que l'idée d'un rosier Et qu'un prénom de femme ... Puis je regarderai Le haut de ma colline Qui danse qui se devine Qui finit par sombrer.. Et dans l'odeur des fleurs Qui bientôt s'éteindra Je sais que j'aurai peur...... Une dernière fois.
