I love that song “Ta Douleur” and have been listening to it quite a bit. It occured to me the lyrics may not be great and not understanding French, my curiosity got the better of me. So of course I found the lyrics and went to babel fish. The translation was funny. Do it for a laugh.
[I know you’re suffering, but trust me, I’m gonna take away your pain.]
The translation is funny. I get the gist of it though and it’s ok.
I heard this artist on triple J so many times on my way to work and it has taken incredible effort to track down the name. I can’t find much online about her but I discovered this clip on YouTube
Enjoy, I hadn’t seen the clip, I quite like the naked knitting theme in the video. There is another cool clip of the song but can’t put it here, so if you’re interested click here. It’s playful and I really like it.
Tonight I have discovered a new website that has downloadable audio files of audio books. Librivox:
LibriVox volunteers record chapters of books in the public domain and release the audio files back onto the net (via podcast and catalog). Our goal is to make all public domain books available as free audio books. We are a totally volunteer, open source, free content, public domain project.
The Internet is really making life interesting. Pandora is another great listening site that customises radio stations to your taste musically. I have actually discovered some new artists that I like on Pandora. You enter the artist you enjoy and it selects other similar artists as well as your favourite and plays a range of music.
