You belong to me... in Latin, baby

Oh, you must know this song, beautiful lyrics, slow tempo and... wait! Stop! Latin translation?!?!? Yes!



Vide Pyramides ad Nilum,
Et ab insula solem ortum,
At memento, care*, interdum
Te esse mei.

Vide forum in Algeria,
Mitte mihi iam munuscula,
At memento, diva exorta,
Te esse mei.

Quam sola pallesco sine te!
Tune pateris forte
Quoque?

Super mare volucer curri,
Vide silvas uvidas imbri,
At memento iterum domi
Te esse mei.

Faithless-Mass Destruction

The song of the past few weeks. Utterly awesome!!!

The Advertising Bubble

A collection of funny videos about THE industry and its trendsetters ;)

Cibelle - Green Grass

A terrific track from Cibelle that has something in common with the previous Alexandra Leaving... know what?

Black Gold - Wake up and smell the coffee

A great documentary telling the story of Ethiopian farmers struggling to sell their quality coffee beans at prices as low as a fraction of a dollar per kilo.

You, the living!

Yesterday I have seen yet another movie from the field of think-twice-how-you-are-spending-time-living movies. The reason why am am posting about this is closely related to my interactions with Slovene people. I had the chance of some interesting discussions with middle-age people that have a successful career and, contrary to some hasty thoughts, they are also managing a balanced life.

Consequently, I've seen in the past weeks two movies that deal with this theme: Koyaanisqatsi and You, the living. If the first one is a harder to digest documentary with and obsessive musical theme, You, the living is powerful, funny and touching. The latter one, a must see for everyone that apreciates European cinema.
