For All My All-American Boys & Gals!

Have a wonderful 4th of July!

My favorite comment on Joe.My.God's post about: "Why We Celebrate"

Rebecca Gardner • an hour agoHow does anyone make it past the age of 7 and not know that the 4th of July celebrates the day that Abraham Lincoln crossed the Delaware River to meet Jesus who rode his T-Rex into battle to lead the founding fathers into victory against Rommel to establish the United States of American as an independent nation in 1992.
Whao! Sorry, was channeling Sarah Palin there for awhile.

Katie Melua Says It Best

This is for my hubby!

There are nine million bicycles in Beijing
That's a fact,
It's a thing we can't deny
Like the fact that I will love you till I die.

We are twelve billion light years from the edge,
That's a guess,
No-one can ever say it's true
But I know that I will always be with you.

I'm warmed by the fire of your love everyday
So don't call me a liar,
Just believe everything that I say

There are six billion people in the world
More or less
and it makes me feel quite small
But you're the one I love the most of all

[INTERLUDE]
We're high on the wire
With the world in our sight
And I'll never tire,
Of the love that you give me every night

There are nine million bicycles in Beijing
That's a Fact,
it's a thing we can't deny
Like the fact that I will love you till I die

And there are nine million bicycles in Beijing
And you know that I will love you till I die!

"Stay" - Steve Grand

Cheyenne Jackson - I'm Blue, Skies

Nina Simone - I'm Feeling Good

Birds flying high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by you know how I feel

(refrain:)x2
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me

And I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
Blossom on the tree you know how I feel

(refrain)

And I'm feeling good

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done
That's what I mean

And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me

Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel

(refrain)

I'm feeling good

Heroes - Måns Zelmerlöw

This is the Swedish contribution to this years Eurovision Song Contest.

Måns is cute as always, the gimmick is great but I really cannot say I like the song much, especially not the quasi-countryesque beginning.

Nitten

Nitten

Jeg har trukket nitten

Jeg har jokket i en lort
Samlet den op og bidt i den
Og det' nitten
Og når jeg prøver på at give den videre
Til en anden idiot
Får jeg den lige i hovedet igen
Nitten

Det startede med at jeg kom lidt for sent op
Så missede jeg mit tog og mistede mit job
Men jeg sagde godt nok at jeg selv havde sagt op
Da min kæreste så jeg kom tidligt hjem

Jeg sagde: "Det' fordi jeg trænger til at realisere mig selv"
Hun svarede: "Det kan du sgu gøre for dig selv"
"For jeg er træt af alt dit pis" og så sagde hun farvel
Tog sit tøj og gik sin vej

Så jeg har trukket nitten
...

Siden er det hele gået helt ad helvede til
Det kører som på skinner fra DSB
Og forleden blev jeg smidt ud af min lejlighed
Så jeg er flyttet hjem til min mor

Og jeg lige som jeg troede at det umuligt kunne blive meget værre
Så finder jeg sgu ud af at hun har en affære
Og de larmer hele natten -- og naboerne klager
Om jeg vil det eller ej
Min mor får mere sex end mig

Så jeg har trukket nitten
...

Jeg har prøvet både med healer og med numerologi
Og jeg har skiftet navn til Karsten 510
Men det nytter ikke noget -- det hjælper ikke en skid
Så jeg må bare i gang igen
For lorten æder ikke sig selv

Jeg har trukket nitten
...

Jeg har trukket nitten
Jeg har jokket i en lort
Samlet den op, tygget godt og grundigt i den
Spist op, skidt en ny og nippet til den
Og det' edermame nitten
Og når jeg prøver på at give den videre
Til en anden idiot
Får jeg den lige i hovedet igen
Nitten

In this Danish song Thomas Holm portrays the poor guy who complains about how his life is falling to pieces, whatever he does. He has drawn a blank ("nitten") in the lottery of life. It all starts with him oversleeping slightly, he misses his train, loses his girlfriend who gets tired of his bullshit, loses his apartment and is forced to move back to his mother.  And then he learns that even his mother gets more sex than he does, which he discovers when he and neighbors are kept awake by the sounds of her loud lovemaking...

Opgedragen aan Guyke

You are never alone
by Mauro Scocco (direct translation to English by Bock McMillan)

When the storm blows, when the bridges burn
When hope and meaning, just disappear
When you feel small, and when no one is there
You will never be alone anyway, as long as I am here

I can walk all night, take a plane or train
It doesn't matter where you are
I´ll get there - anyway

You are never alone, as long as I breathe
As long as my heart - can beat
You are never alone, never forget it
I'll do anything for you, I hope that you know
Yes, I hope that you know

If those you trust fail you, if your dream fell apart
Then I can remind you of how much you're worth
That the fear you feel, it is not you
And how scary as it may seem, it will fade away

I can walk all night, take a plane or train
It doesn't matter where you are
I´ll get there - anyway

You are never alone, as long as I breathe
As long as my heart - can beat
You are never alone, never forget it
I'll do anything for you, I hope that you know
Yes, I hope that you know

So when you no longer cope, then I´ll cope for us both
When you cannot find a way out, I´ll find one anyway
You have given me so much over the years that have passed
The biggest thing one can get, you have given it to me

You are never alone, as long as I breathe
As long as my heart - can beat
You are never alone, never forget it
I'll do anything for you, I hope that you know
Yes, I hope that you know
Yes, I hope that you know

And I know that you know
