Viva la Vida

Life is so unfair as some sad news were revealed today and this came to mind, Viva la Vida as was inspired/painted by Frida Kahlo. For Frida, the meaning of Viva la Vida is all about a celebration of life, despite its sorrows and many troubles. An artist plagued by pain and illness throughout her short life, it is widely believed that Viva la Vida was Frida Kahlo's last painting, painted just days before she died ... "sensing that her time was near, Kahlo added the inscription "Viva la vida" on her death bed as her famous last words. It is indeed inspiring that, even with her own death looming near, Frida had the strength and boldness to escape pessimism even in a moment when darkness and morbidity would have been expected and even acceptable. Instead, Kahlo turned her watermelons into a symbol and celebration of life's fleeting simple pleasures...

and so I say to you Jose... Viva la Vida!

01 RESURRECTION - CHRIS PEREZ BAND

Been a long hot summer and this poor blog has been ignored of late but ready for a Resurrection!

Bruce Springsteen - There Goes My Miracle

So looking forward to new music from the boss!!  Yes I can relate to the fact that there goes my miracle walking way! 

Heartache, heartbreak, love gives, love takes
The book of love holds its rules...

Orpheus lyrics Sara Bareilles

Don't stop trying to find me here amidst the chaos...  it's blinding and sometimes I think I can't find my way out and I find myself wanting to give up. Tomorrow is another day and I hope to say, I will not give up on love today. 

Thank you Sara for your beautiful words and music!

Fire

Finally, after a five year break new music by one of my favorite artists and this song hits home...


Fire That comes and stays fire On blood and veins fire I've only ever wanted fire In my chest In my mouth On my tongue In my mind And my soul So my lungs can breathe in fire

So need to breathe in fire!!

Hozier - Movement (Live) | Vevo Official Performance

Cannot get enough of this song!  Such poetry and that voice!

So need someone to MOVE ME-Move me baby!!!

I still watch you when you're groovin' As if through water from the bottom of a pool You're movin' without movin' And when you move, I'm moved You are a call to motion There, all of you a verb in perfect view Like Jonah on the ocean When you move, I'm moved When you move I'm put to mind of all that I wanna be When you move I could never define all that you are to me So move me, baby Shake like the bough of a willow tree You do it naturally Move me, baby You are the rite of movement Its reasonin' made lucid and cool I know it's no improvement When you move, I move You're less Polunin leapin' Or Fred Astaire in sequins Honey, you, you're Atlas in his sleepin' And when you move, I'm moved When you move I can recall somethin' that's gone from me When you move Honey, I'm put in awe of somethin' so flawed and free So move me, baby Shake like the bough of a willow tree You do it naturally Move me, baby So move me, baby Like you've nothin' left to lose And nothin' to prove Move me, baby Ooh, ooh, ooh Oh baby, oh baby Move like grey skies Move like a bird of paradise Move like an odd sight come out at night Move me, baby Shake like the bough of a willow tree You do it naturally Move me, baby So move me, baby Like you've nothin' left to lose And nothin' to prove Move me, baby So move me, baby Shake like the bough of a willow tree You do it naturally Move me, baby

The Sound of Silence (Original Version from 1964)

Hello darkness my old friend I've come to talk with you again...

Been a long time of silence on this old blog.  I miss it but time slips by too fast these days. 
I walk alone in restless dreams only to wake up and touch the sound of silence and don't dare disturb the sound of silence and I no longer bow down and pray to that neon god that's made because His presence is unknown to me. 

A lot has passed these few months but a few notes to list...

R.I.P Dianne and I"m sorry we never connected after you left as that was my bad for not being able to reach out to you.

R.I.P. Max--hope you and Chulo find each other across that rainbow bridge.
