We are Following the yellow brick road for 60 years


Seventy years ago this month, The Wizard of Oz first made it on to the silver screen.

Children like it because it is a good story, full of fun characters and exciting adventures.

Adults , especially those of us in history and related fields like it because we can read between Lines.

Strange - Grace Jones


I first heard this song as background in the film "Frantic" with Harrison Ford - and I was hooked!!

For many years I have been a fan of Grace Jones, who is an icon for the gay community.

The beat of this song, the French, Grace's peformance...

This song is myone of the classics in the soundtrack industry.

I hear it over and over and it doesn't get old.

I gotta feeling - Home Video



This video is the best ever!

The 2 girls did a great job! good song and good video I love it!

they worked rly hard and they ended making an awesome job..

It is amazing!

How does it feel ?


How does it feel
To treat me like you do
When you've laid laid your hands upon me
And told me who you are

I thought I was mistaken
I thought I heard your words
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now how do I feel

Those who came before me
Lived through their vocations
From the past until completion
They will turn away no more

And I still find it so hard
To say what I need to say
But I'm quite sure that you'll tell me
Just how I should feel today

I see a ship in the harbor
I can and shall obey
But if it wasn't for your misfortunes
I'd be a heavenly person today

And I thought I was mistaken
And I thought I heard you speak
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now how should I feel

Now I stand here waiting

I thought I told you to leave me
While I walked down to the beach
Tell me how does it feel
When your heart grows cold

Iran People - We stand by you !!!


Iranian Superstar Andy Madadian went into an LA recording studio with Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora and American record producers Don Was and John Shanks to record a musical message of worldwide solidarity with the people of Iran.

This version of the old Ben E. King classic is not for sale - it was not meant to be on the Billboard charts or even manufactured as a CD.....it's intended to be downloaded and shared by the Iranian people...to give voice to the sentiment that all people of the world stand together....the handwritten Farsi sign in the video translates to "we are one".

Poppiholla


I usually hate remixes of tunes I love but I must say well done Chicane,
here youll find Remix of a classic track "Hoppipolla" by Sigur Ros made by kind of a trance legend Chicane.
This Video, It Shows That No-One Can Judge You By What You Wear. It Shows That You Shouldnt Sterotype People Because They Could Be Completely Different Than What You Think.
