THE SALVATION ARMY!
Clever move! It will need a direct intervention from God for Switzerland to win that contest, ever!
This is so bizarre; I LOVE IT! (Voted ten times for them, just for the heck of it!)

Phew.
Yes, yes, none of my business as I'm not American yadda yadda, but if you're the self-declared leading nation of the world, you'll have to live with the fact that us non-leading nations of the world will get sort of worried if there's a risk you guys could hand power to a group of people who think an ASBO is a badge of honour.
Congratulations to the ( Read more... ) -
Molly's Random Jukebox: Day 7
The last day of Molly's Random Jukebox!
aglarien1 No. 59: "L'Arpeggiata, Christina Pluhar, Lucilla Galeazzi & Marco Beasley - Tarantella del Gargano"
Go for folk songs if you want to know what kind of music "ordinary" people enjoyed centuries ago. This is a wonderful example of a traditional Italian song from the 17th century; it hasn't lost any of its power ( Read more... ) -

lilfluffykitten No. 36: "Reamonn - Moments Like This"
Try listening to this and NOT get moving! I don't know how well known the band around Irish lead singer Rea Garvey is outside of Germany, but they have yet to deliver a song that I don't like. Look them up on youtube!

Molly's Random Jukebox: Day 5
One day delayed, sorry about that.
Rebecca Matthies No. 72: "Wynonie Harris - Good Morning, Judge"If you say "R'n'B",I'm thinking of Wynonie Harries, Lucky Millinder, Louis Jordan and Big Joe Turner. Wish somebody would do a cover of "Good Morning, Judge" or "Bloodshot Eyes"; not because I feel it's necessary, but I'd be curious to see the ( Read more... ) -
Molly's Random Jukebox: Day 4
eveiya No. 66: "Little Talks - Of Monsters and Men"
Even I manage to get out of bed in time if this song os playing in the morning. It's woohoo from beginning to end. :-)
bimo No. 113: "Lykke Li - I Follow Rivers"
I don't think it's intended that way, but to me this video looks very much like one of those dreaded "I'm being chased by some scary person and just ( Read more... ) -
Molly's Random Jukebox: Day 3
chloe_amethyst No. 107: "Deine Lakaien - Love me to the end"German electronicdarkwavenotreallygothbutthenagainmaybetheyare Deine Lakaien manage the miracle of getting you in a melancholic mood without making you feel depressed. If you close your eyes while listening to them on a rainy Sunday evening, you'll find your mind travelling to strange, dark yet ( Read more... ) -
Molly's Random Jukebox: Day 2
auroraloo No. 31: "Runrig - Meadhan Oidhche Air An Acairseid"
Now here's a story to tell: we had booked a venue for Runrig which was perfect, but the guy responsible for it was absolutely chaotic. With - everything. We all loved him dearly, and the place was great, but that specific Runrig seemed to end before it all began: all the lights went out, every ( Read more... ) -
Kandinsky drawing, filmed in 1926 (!!!)
I'm having a major art geek-out here - how awesome is that?!
That's just amazing; it looks so easy, so playful, and yet...
Kandinsky, Marc and Chagall are my favourite modern artists. But I also have a weak spot for Paula Modersohn-Becker; her 1906 self-portrait was the first painting I ever had to "analyse" for art class. I can't remember the names ( Read more... )
