A note

I was watching one of the Radiohead's concerts on YouTube thinking I'm still very attracted to Thom Yorke. Maybe more, he seems to be getting sexier over the years.

But I must add, I'd do Colin Greenwood any day of the week. 

Just wanna to point that out

Bono turned 60

Today Bono turned 60 years old.

It amazes me to still remember the day of his birth. Today I barely know the name of new singers or bands I start to listen the songs, but I can tell you by heart that his real name is Paul David Hewson, born May 10th, 1960.

He was my first sex symbol and personal hero in the 90's. I had pictures of him in my wardrobe and notebook (a real notebook, made of paper and written by pen)

By the time he turned 50 any of that felt truth anymore. He had shake hands with too many people and companies and said too much about political and social matters too delicate to me. I could not held the hand of a devil like he does. A few years ago  I read somewhere he had said "Bono is tired of Bono." I liked that.

Despite any political difference or disagreement, U2 has always been part of the soundtrack of my life. At some night last week I played some U2's records back to back and I felt happy, I felt at home. I hope to keep feeling like that. With the rest of the band, his voice and lyrics has saved me many times. I hope there's still more U2 albums to come.

The world has changed a lot and very quick lately. The sense of political difference has another scale ever since truth and good lost their meaning. So now, at his 60s and my 40s, I'm happy he's still around, old and doing music, helping people, saying shit and whatever.
You're not on a pedestal anymore but keep banging your drums, Bono. I'm listening.

===

(A memory came to my mind now:  after the last U2 gig I saw, I was in a very crowded bus going back home and a woman on my side said Bono shouldn't talk about politics at the concerts because people were there for the songs. I turned to her and said that if she really thought that then she didn't know anything about U2. Other people on the bus back me up.

Maybe you still are a bit of a hero, babe)

What makes my days brighter

To see his name and photo on the top of my viewers

What a sad feeling

when you realize the girl of your ex keeps a better and closer track of what you post than your current crush.

(Nothing against her. I actually like her.)

With just one line

He messed up my weekend and my heart
And I liked.

I never thought Legion could be the most amazing product from the Marvel universe, but...


This show, oh my, and these two
Aubrey, how I have never paid attention to you, I will never forgive myself. 
I love Dan but what you do is incredible! I just met you and I love you already.

The king of men

The problem about watching Outlander is that Jamie Fraser sets the bar so high it gets more and more difficult to accept reality after each episode.
Sam Heughan is probably the Gilda, or actually the Rita Hayworth of men.

Dave Rosser


Falling in love with The Twilight Singers had a lot to do with you, sir.
Colon cancer is a bitch. I hope you didn't suffer much.
Today was a sad day.
RIP

Maybe next time

I should be flying to NYC right now.
About one month ago I planned a quick scape to watch "Sunday in the park with George" and spend a few days in the city visiting what I didn't had the chance last September.
I even bought a ticket for tomorrow night... And God knows I need a break after these two last weeks...
Maybe next time.

Hey, Saint Patrick

We're cool, bro.

"Until there's nothing but sky"


And when the woman that you wanted goes
You can say to yourself, well, I give what I give
But the woman who won't wait for you knows
That however you live
There's a part of you always standing by
Mapping out the sky...





Will this musical be released as an album?

Blue Jay (2016)



Every once and a while I have this daydream that at some point in my life I will write a film. Or a play. A small and very independent piece about a relationship.
After I watched Blue Jay I believe there's no reason to do it anymore. The story is a bit different from what I was planning to write but the main subject and (most important) the feeling are there as I thought it should be done.
It is a Netflix production (or distribution? I'm not sure) and I most deeply reccomend you to watch it. I did it last year, a few days before being off for holidays and as soon the film was over I played it again.

Thank you, Mark Duplass, for such a honest and delicate way to tell that story.

About that lighthouse

There will be no Montauk this time.
Too bad. I had this fantasy of going and finding you there.
...
Besides that, everything is great.

Learning how to put things back in place again



Just watched Demolition and I liked as I thought I would. And cried as I should know I would (but didn't expected)
It's true: when you are down and start to review your mistakes, and what you believe and how you are, you do (or want to) see meaning, sense and signs in everything. Until the point you're rolling in the mud very sure that experience will allow you to see something nobody else does. Maybe it will. Or maybe you are just trying to find reasons to not put up your mess together, to conform and start again.
I wonder for how long we can make/allow/let things to go wrong in the name of some sort of personal growth.

Got late to the love for Oscar Isaac train



But I'm finally here.
This song is playing in my head for more than a week. Listening t it, in the end of the day, sunset and all that stuff... man, my heart aches.
It makes me dream. And that is so dangerous...

Alan Rickman, R.I.P

His Colonel Brandon was my first Jane Austen's Crush
It made me discover her books, actually.
And then I became a fan of his.
