l.p. - luminous pondering - hmm...

  So... We're hearing that Patty & Gal  didn't do so well in their redux...?  *WW84* isn't all that it  could have been/promised to be?  Maybe it is due to it  having only ONE song from 1984  in its entire soundtrack - and it isn't what it should have been: ...it is this:    WOW.  That was... underwhelming!  (In spite of the daring bits there,  for its day and prudish age;  such as the protruding ones  seen in this shot, screenshot  for your convenience  (since fickle YouTube might  take it down any second now!)   ...boobies? (Even if only side boob shots) in a MUSIC VIDEO from the Eighties?!?  And all staged in the midst of some kind of sado-maso lesbo scene...?!?  How did this get past the censors, back then?  How did it get uploaded to YT... NOW?  #ButThatIsAnotherStory No, really...  PATTY should have gone  WITH THIS SONG INSTEAD:  It tells the same basic ...

There sure is much to ponder these days...  INDEED! And it's making me... angry... hungry... hangry ! Hmm... Maybe some soothing music will help...? Hmm... I'll keep on adding playlists here, no matter what - *one* of them is bound to be playable, sooner or later, surely, eh? Ah - see? ;-)

.................................... No, no, no - this is not about the lame-o project  announced by Marvel at their latest nerdy con there;  NOT AT ALL...  THIS is more like IT...! ............................

How in blue (or... pink) blazes  is the color PINK chosen now  for a WEAR PINK day  bent on stopping  BULLYING?  Yikes - seems to me  wearing a pink t-shirt  would only be  an invitation  for MORE  BULLYING...!!!  ... which kinda, well, y'know...  defeats the original purpose here... huh?  The artist known as PINK - on top of that -  has inspired many, yes...  but to a whole lot of different things -  INCLUDING VIOLENCE!  That is the bully's favorite... ah... tool, you know?  That and taunting - lots of taunting...  Name-calling... goading into a sucker punch, usually!  Damn them bullies - damn them all!  Not smart one iota - just the basic street smarts  and those are plentiful among the inbreds, really!  But that's another sordid story... PINK has, therefore, inspired some  to START A FIGHT... ...

La prise de la Bastille...  La Révolution!  LA GUILLOTINE!  A great day to celebrate... hein?  Vous pensez ça, vraiment... les Français?   VRAIMENT?!? NOT!  Certainly not when one remembers  what truly transpired on that day... And, when you truly think about it,  what was obtained that day?  Liberté? POUR QUI - POUR QUOI?  Égalité? HA! PAS DU TOUT!  FRATERNITÉ?!?  Don't make me laugh!!!  Maudits Français - hypocrites!!  Tous des têtes de Macrons - va!  Forget your old adage/maxime/slogan... GO WITH  THIS BLOODY ONE INSTEAD:

By this date, next year, usage of  CANNABIS should be LEGALIZED  all across what is alleged to be  God's Country...  GREEN Canada... Eh?  Or GREEN like THIS:   UNLESS...  it is really like this:  Yeah - like, thanks a million... Justin Trudeau!!!  Going from RED GREEN...  ... to GREEN DAY - instantly!!!  Hmm...

Yay... MAYDAY! 

Shall we invoke somebody he has never heard of - ever, ever, ever; I'd bet his Rolex that is worth more than my house on that - and suddenly sprout into song with this classic from Plastic (!) Bertrand of France... ''Je m'arrête ou je continue? (''X'' nombre d'années) oû j'en suis? À la fin - ou au début?''  Wooooo!  (Never heard this either? Here it is... I hope!) Not exactly a Nature Boy; Plastic Bertrand has absolutely nothing  in common with Ric Flair!  But his song was heard in the movie  ''Three Kings''  - so, maybe, the erstwhile leader of the  Four Horsemen  does know it...? ANYWAY... The thing to ponder here is this: when you get older (especially in the range Flair has attained now) - when is it time to finally say ''STOP'' (or ''I've had it'' or again ''I'm outta here!'' - but we may be using the wrong example here as Ric still take...

... AS SEEN -AND HEARD- ON GLOBAL! :-!

Everybody wants to be a MONSTER now. There is even a website that helps you find the job of your dreams out there - and that website's name is MONSTER! How did monsters become so HIP, all of a sudden? Is it because the generations X, Y AND Z cannot associate the right definitions to the appropriate words, as they cannot spell, pronounce and read overall? Is it because the youngsters looooooove to give a new spin on old-fashioned words and concepts - like, all the time it would seem, making it all *their lingo* now...? Or is it because of... Lady Gaga. The weirdo so-called lady who is no lady - not meaning here that she has male genitalia at all. Although, weren't there rumors that she was a hermaphrodite some time back...? Hmm... But that is not the point right now - actually, it has no incidence whatsoever on the topic here or on anything else, at all! As a self-proclaimed "monster", Lady Gaga has influenced and, yes, inspired MILLIONS UPON MILLIONS of "freak...

Okay, enough with the sappiness, santa breath! Let's say it LIKE IT TRULY IS: Or rather... like it SHOULD be +++

'Tis 10/10/10, folks! Just like last year when we had 9/9/9... And the year before that saw us have an 8/8/8... And before that we had the magnanimous 7/7/7, of course... And the ominous 6/6/6 before that... And of course, before all that we had been prepared psychologically with the 5/5/5s through 1/1/1s...! And still, all this is not to mention that in the next two years, we will have an 11/11/11 and a 12/12/12 too (watch out for that one, folks!) You get the idea! These once-in-a-lifetime dates that we have been living in for the past decade are always golden occasions to verse apocalyptic on you - so why not indulge them all, apocalyptically indeed, even at the risk of becoming dangerously (and did I mention apocalyptically ) redundant... hmm? How better, I ask thee, than to indulge in music and stunning (dare I add... apocalyptically stunning too?) visuals, all merged chaotically enough on videoclips for our viewing pleasure, delight and collective fright as well? ...

It is possible to forget *everything* during one's vacation - if you believe the words of this classic gem from allegedly elegant one-hit wonders... Vacances J'Oublie Tout - Èlègance J'ai la montre arrêtée J'sais même pas l'heure qu'il est Le téléphone a sonné J'm'suis pas réveillé Direction salle de bain J'me fais couler un bain Je m'regarde dans le miroir Pas beau à voir En retard sur l'horaire Plus besoin d'se presser Radio libre allumée Stop pas de publicité Cette chanson bien côtée C'est le tube de l'été Me fait flipper De la tête aux pieds Je commence à ranger Car ce soir terminé Je serais sur la route Avec Bison Futé J'suis pas seul à rêver Du ciel bleu des palmiers Et des jours sans problèmes C'est la vie que j'aime (Refrain) Vacances j'oublie tout Plus rien à faire du tout J'm'envoie en l'air ça c'est super Folie légère Vacances j'oublie tout Plus rien à faire du tout J'm'envoie...

Straight out of MY Frazy too! Stylem.com ... Whatever they call it now!

You tell me: 'cause I just don't know anymore! The mandatory remix dance version is not enough anymore, it would seem... Here's just one "subject-case" example... And I'm not sure which is worst too: that there are so many bastardizations of one of the greatest soundtracks of all-time OR that some ignorant fools erroneously attribute the fine work of one luminous Lisa Gerrard to (well, equally luminous) Enya! Hmm...

Nope - not this year! Let's be SELECTIVE this year; selective and retrospective! Thus - a very quick recap first and then, our pick for 2008! Fine with you? It better be! Okay now, then - if this song was THE SONG OF THE YEAR for 2007 (as far as I was concerned) This one has to be IT - for 2008, for ME... (And it is all about ME here - MY blog and I!) Close second would be this one: Hey - it was Leslie Feist's year, okay?!? 'Nuff said!
