eu adoro a "Moonlight Sonata" =)

até lhe tirei uma -> foto <- :]

no outro dia tropeçei nisto... podia ser esta a rapariga, eheheh *

"One evening as [Beethoven] was out walking he passed a cobbler's house where he heard someone inside practicing one of his compositions. As he stopped to listen he overheard a girl say that she wished she could hear a real musician play it properly.

"Beethoven went into the house and, noticing the young lady at the piano was blind, offered to play the piece for her. He did so for more than an hour and while he did, darkness fell and the lone candle in the room went out.

"Outside in the night sky the moon shone brightly and sent its radiant beams glistening into the room where Beethoven sat playing beautiful music. He was so inspired by the appreciation of his music by the young lady and the beauty of the atmosphere in the room that he composed his famous 'Moonlight Sonata.'"

a moonlight sonata é qualquer coisa realmente, eu adoro-a

caro afilhado, a sua foto está muy guapa

essa história é mesmo verdade? muito bonito, agora ainda gosto mais dele :)

Faz lembrar a história de como o oscar wilde escreveu a Salomé, quer dizer, não faz lembrar, na verdade não tem nada a ver, eu é que me lembrei. é uma história muito mais tétrica. um dia conto-te, agora tenho soninho, amanhã.

"According to his biographers, Wilde drafted the bulk of the play in a single sitting after an evening spent discussing the legend with a number of fellow writers. Taking a break, Wilde stopped by a nearby café that same night and requested that the orchestra help him in his endeavor by playing something that might conjure a "woman dancing in her bare feet in the blood of a man she has craved for and slain." Wilde completed his play soon thereafter"

O que eu tinha lido é mais ou menos isso, Wilde desceu até ao bar do hotel onde estava hospedado e pediu à orquestra que tocasse a música mais tenebrosa que conseguissem e nessa mesma noite, ali sentado, ele escreveu a peça inteira.

I never know for sure that they are coming back until I see the car lights turn the corner

I should stop looking

but I can't help it

Is it them?

No, it wasn't

When we wait, the car lights never show up
