The Poem Is You - The Ballad Of Old Harold Pt.II

I'm in love for this beautiful poem. You
thanks folks!

acreditar. continuar. sonhar.
sigo este caminho.
e o que me invade é a certeza.
não tenho saudades de nada.
não lamento nada.
aceito. recebo.
o sorriso. o vento.
encontro-te nesse olhar translúcido.
o tempo não existe.
e amor é tudo o que te posso dar
I'not the one who really loves you
but whatever you need me
I'll be there
as always

vontades boas
e lembro-me de ti
e das coisas que me dizias
e começas onde?
Yeap! I know you're married
but I've got feelings too
ai como te entendo Martha!
a comprar. a guardar. e a ouvir vezes sem conta
há uma versão do See Emily Play do Syd Barrett
e aonde páras tu mr. vontades boas?

Ontem comprei mais um cd para a minha humble prateleira de cds.
Já tinha dado um exemplar de uma colectânea dos Pogues ao meu irmão, uma pequena lembrança da minha 2º ida a Londres o ano passado. Mas não tinha nada deles em casa.
Foi na CDGO, na rua de Cedofeita que encontrei este album. Comprei porque tem a Whiskey In The Jar, que eu tão bem conhecia dos tempos em que era uma teenager e principalmente porque era uma das minhas preferidas tocadas pelos JIG, aquela banda portuguesa que tantos verões e ilusões me alimentou durante anos quando vivia em Viana do Castelo. Quem não se lembra deles no jardim público e na Praça da República? Pois eu nunca me esqueci...
Adquirido o dito exemplar espanto-me com as fotografias do booklet: os Pogues em plena ribeira de Gaia com a Ponte D. Luis como cenário. Confesso que para mim esta aquisição ainda teve mais significado. É que isto aconteceu algures entre 1989 e 1990, e apesar de não ter estado presente no concerto, lembrou-me outra história. Sim. Da outra banda que na mesma altura tinha um concerto agendado para o mesmo local e que por razões técnicas que agora não interessam para nada, acabaram por cancelar o concerto deixando alguns fãs com uma má impressão. Os Pogues não se inibiram com os ditos problemas técnicos de falta de segurança e lá fizeram o dito concerto. E é nesta edição do Hell's Ditch, o 5º album da banda que aparece as 2 fotografias que fazem a delícia de qualquer admirador. Apenas uma pergunta: Mike será que farias o mesmo? 25 anos depois ninguém te viu no Cais de Gaia...

Não.
Não me apetece o teu olhar
Nem o teu cabelo ao vento.
Levas as tuas asas contigo.
seguirte-te-ei um dia desses
Para lá das montanhas
Num comboio
Qualquer entre duas cidades
Não.
Não me apetece o teu olhar
Nem as tuas palavras.
Leva as asas contigo.

This is going to be the best part of the tour, says Stewart. Well, I'll be there!

Police drummer Stewart Copeland promises a dynamite show in Ottawa this week. But as he tells Lynn Saxberg, there's a limit to looking back and new projects beckon. By now you've probably heard that the British rock trio the Police are planning to call it quits after a final swing through North America this summer. It's true. Singer-bassist Sting, guitarist Andy Summers and drummer Stewart Copeland will return to their separate lives when their hugely successful reunion tour winds down in August. The final leg starts at Scotiabank Place on Thursday. "We will have completed our mission," said Copeland in a phone interview, "and we feel very strongly that we want to get back to the other aspects of our lives as creative artists, and the Police is not about being creative artists." Huh? Is he dismissing the force of the band, and how songs like 'Message in a Bottle' and 'Roxanne' infiltrated our consciousness and blazed a path for eclectic and innovative sounds in modern rock? Of course not. He's witnessed the power of the catalogue first-hand for more than a year. The band reformed last year after 23 years, made a splash with a performance on the 2007 Grammys, and sailed through a busy tour schedule, ending as the year's top money-making touring act. But it wasn't all about the money. "It's about re-enacting a canon of material, a ceremony, and there's a lot of value and a lot of drama to that, and it's very powerful," Copeland says. "We feel the power of a Police concert, which is about these songs, which have 20 years of people's lives infused in them. There's a real dramatic impact playing these songs, and we feel the return energy from people hearing them. And we see them reacting to them, and it's very powerful and that's why we're doing it." But with "creative drive," in mind, he says of the reunion: "It's not about making anything new, and as artists, we gotta make new stuff. "So come August, when this tour is finished, we will resume our former lives." Sometimes, when bands reunite after an extended period, they rediscover the old magic between them and are inspired to write new material. It doesn't sound like it happened to the Police. The three musicians are reknowned for their egos, and have clashed in the past. "It's been hell and it's been heaven," Copeland says, in describing the past year of reunion life. "Although we figured we would be more Zen-like and patient, in fact we've been more cantankerous. Each of the three of us has been president for life in their own world for the last two decades, and having to collaborate on an equal basis with two other guys takes social skills that have languished, and so we have had to relearn how to be part of something bigger than ourselves." Another thing they've learned is just how far they can go with changing the arrangements of songs that are sacred to a generation. Audiences generally don't like a lot of change in hit songs. But to keep it interesting for themselves, the Police have been experimenting with jazzy rearrangements of their songs. "As a rule of thumb, it basically is the record but then in the third verse, there will be something that is completely different," Copeland says. Police drummer Stewart Copeland promises a dynamite show in Ottawa this week. But as he tells Lynn Saxberg, there's a limit to looking back and new projects beckon. "It's important to us to be close enough to the songs so people get that feeling, wake up that memory that goes with that song. It has to be that song, but we are living, breathing visceral players and we just can't help ourselves." Police concert dates are booked until early August. After that, Copeland is looking forward to life getting back to normal. He lives in Los Angeles with his wife and three daughters. He has four older children from a previous "I really enjoyed my job and my life before the Police came along and I hope to return to it pretty much exactly as it was before. I'll get back into my Jeep Cherokee, and keep on dropping my kids off at school and writing music like I was before," he says. In addition to composing film soundtracks, Copeland writes orchestral rock music. One piece, 'Celeste', named after his youngest daughter, premiered at a music festival in Savannah, Georgia last month. "The room lit up," he says. "There were only 1,200 people rather than 80,000, but the spirit in the room was such that I can't wait to do more of that." He's also working on a book, tentatively titled Afterglow, about his post-Police adventures. "It just happens that after being in a band, life doesn't stop, life goes on," Copeland says. "And if it's been a particularly successful one, the life afterwards can be interesting. Strange things happen that don't happen to normal people. As he heads into the home stretch of an ambitious world tour, he'll be gathering material for the final chapter. "This is going to be the best part of the tour," the musician says. "The expectations that people had in the beginning, the weirdness about re-accommodating each other, is all done now. We are just looking at gigging out these last few months and burning it up. This will totally be the best touring shows ever." © The Ottawa Citizen by Lynn Saxberg

Bob Geldof was invited for a conference about Sustainable Development – Making the Difference here in Portugal. This invitation was sponsored by a Bank the BES and The Expresso - newspaper.
The news (not the whole media at this moment) only refers about a part of his speech that concerns Angola. He said that this country is ruled by criminals (which is true) and that the best houses are been built at Luanda Bay, they are more expensive than the houses of Chelsea or Park Lane.
The representant of the Angola Embassy leave the room and the Bank says that Bob he’s the only responsible for that statement.
He put the finger in a very “bloody hound” and now everyone are running away for their responsibilities…
He still makes the difference in this world by catching up attention for a country like Angola where are thousands of people dying not only of hungry, not only aids, not only for non medical attention, but they are dying because there’s a part of the society that only cares about fancy parties, cars and luxurious life. And José Eduardo dos Santos, the president, he’s one of them.
Hope you can tell Bob that he is my hero for the day and I hope that God keeps blessing his thoughts cause he has the guts to tell the truth that others are trying to hide!
I send this message to a fellow. Hope he did sent this message to Bob
