Gracias por la Música


I’m back here with new air. Thank God the battle against the computer, the archives and old memories was well done and today my computer is “healthy” as my memories…

It was just few weeks ago so many ideas came to my mind as very important things happened to the world.

As usual where to start, and create the correct brainstorm that could help to print ideas in a good way…?

Because we have to start, the first thing to celebrate and the theme all world is involved were last American elections. Here are not deep thoughts about American politics because we all know we were tired of this world massive policies that were ruling everywhere without any consideration. So as America breathe, we, “the rest”, too. It’s not a small thing to say that many tabloids were celebrating this as some of my favourite radio stations too. All of them dedicated a huge program to the success. I was also amazed how elections in some way were part of a big show and this was like those huge events like World Cup or Miss World. It was such a profitable topic for media. Amazing when you could see how many millions of people put their eyes on it. And this way I think to myself how Americans are specialists in media. Of course their films are a monster over the world, and let’s not say about the things they are concerned. But for this time, “I forgive” the big show because personally, I believe this is good news and we are living a moment of hope which is always a good thing.

In the other hand, also sad news were hanging on the newspapers and it was that one of my beloved writers was dead, Mr. Michael Crichton. The magical trips I made with his books, the stories that gave me endless nights… all those brave fighters, knights… they will stay in my heart and my memory. It’s sad when this happens, to me books are like a “stand-by” person waiting to tell you something else, that something is behind of the stories they write. I enjoy deeply these stories but it’s also the personality of the writer printed in there that interests me. That’s why is so sad he’s gone, he had very interesting writing as very humble way to describe his adventures. I would recommend you Time Line, is a book about physics and an amazing story about travelling through time. Then it’s not worth only because of the story, but because you also can find some interesting theories about physics.

The third “wish” of the note is Music. It is a fashion theme in my life I know (it will always be), but these times, I had to “move” part of my mental home and I was amazed that the heaviest part of it were my music files. It’s also sad when I say I would love to be a writer… this should be a 50-50! But ok, no complains when I’m working on that. Then I realized very many people, very important people, contributed with a huge part of my collection. Years and years belong to one collection and this is like a special smell to me. Smells are also in some way like a song, they could bring you so many good memories… My favourites are now safe and I also know life brought me to change the stage and maybe some of my “distributors” are not any longer there to produce as 3 or 5 years ago. But I’m very happy now. I see my music library became part of my personal story as well as my personal diary and… the currently page you are reading to.

I think I’m also experimenting a different period of my life and I have so much to say… But I learnt sometimes is good to think and not jumping just at the very first second. Some ideas should be in the oven for few more days before I smell they are ready.

So today I realized I do agree with a friend and it is that my heart is in holidays. It could be I watch over the streets… but only watching. Too many things occurred last month that I think I still don’t know where to focus to start walking again. I didn’t want to make this personal, but is as fool to say I was not the writer of these stories.

So the play list today was brought by our Blur friends… Hey, by the way! Did you hear they are “very probably” coming back?!!! Yes! It made me so happy, very, very happy. Because they will bring something new of course and they are of my beloved bands.

Ok, ok no more blah, blah, blah, excuse me, tonight I’m excited (for first time) about knowing nothing.



This is a Low


And into the sea goes pretty England and me
Around the Bay of Biscay and back for tea
Hit traffic on the dogger bank
Up the Thames to find a taxi rank
Sail on by with the tide and go asleep
And the radio says

THIS IS A LOW
BUT IT WON'T HURT YOU
WHEN YOU ARE ALONE IT WILL BE THERE WITH YOU
FINDING WAYS TO STAY SOLO

On the Tyne forth and Cramity
There's a low in the high forties
And Saturday's locked away on the pier
Not fast enough dear
On the Malin head, Blackpool looks blue and red
And the Queen, she's gone round the bend
Jumped off Land's End
And the radio says



Video included!

Few days are left and Sally didn’t say goodbye. We cannot wait until she’s back. Show must go on… but how to pretend she didn’t break our hearts. We thought she was the perfect one (or that was what Rob said). Now is time to get to Hastings and we don’t even know if we will make it without her. We shouldn’t believe her that way, now John is feeling the worst hangover and I am thinking not to carry on.
