Kate Nash by Bobo Boom

A new week, a new challenge (or several). There’s always something around the corner, so have a little encouragement song that is, well, about growing up in a sense. And sometimes failing to. 😉 “You’ve come so far,  Well done darling! We knew that you had it in you You can do anything that you want World is an oyster! … Read More

The song and the album were a phenomenon in Germany. I still own the album (physically), I did record the video clips … Read More

Justin Timberlake 2020 Tour 008 by J Vettorino

In Germany we call it Ohrwurm (ear-worm). It’s a song you hear somewhere and that gets stuck in your head somehow. This is one such song, and although it’s been a big hit, I didn’t really realize it by Justin Timberlake until I was searching for it. It seems that insightful lyrics can be found almost anywhere. I truly like … Read More

Today I’ve got a more thought heavy song for you, because there hasn’t been a Ben Folds song on a while… 😉 “What will they write about me? What will the version be when all is said and done? Will they remember all of the places seen, the poems lost, Or am I just wondering on? Yeah, I’m just wondering on. … Read More

Und wieder geht ein Jahr zu Ende. Es ist ruhiger geworden hier auf dem Blog, Arbeit an zwei bis drei Fronten hat einige Ideen verhindert, die ich für Beiträge gehabt habe. Außerdem ist das Jahr global betrachtet ein wenig schillerndes, wenn man an die großen Nachrichten denkt. Flüchtlinge und die Diskussion um ihren Verbleib, demonstrative Dummheit bei einem Bruchteil der Menschheit … Read More

Wie das funktioniert hat, davon handelt … Read More
