Today I stumbled upon a blog by a British guy in Brazil. He's got a video up of two of the greatest artists, David Bowie & Annie Lennox, singing a tribute to another great, Freddie Mercury. The video is awesome and at the end I got a chill down my spine and started crying (long day ... time for bed). Bowie is so spectacularly good; he sang the soundtrack to my life as I was growing up.And as for the British guy in Brazil ... well I may be wrong ... but he seems to me like a genuinely lovely, big-hearted poet who's been through some serious sadness, and might appreciate some warm positive vibes from all you kind and caring bloggers out there.
Goodnight x
I never knew you could click that bit. Now you've gazillioned the amount of time I'll spend on the internet...
ReplyDeleteWow Gone Back South!
ReplyDeleteI truly am flattered!
Thank you very much for speaking so kindly of me! I hope I don't disappoint :)
Have a great beginning of the week!
What a lovely thing to do. I've been over to say hi. It is hard starting out and it is nice to encourage where I was once encouraged and still am.
ReplyDeleteYou're a good egg!
i have a bad habit of clicking any and all links...this is one that i'm not kicking myself in the arse for! LOL he's quite a poet, too. thx for sending us his way :)i have met the nicest people here in the blogging world.
ReplyDeleteStellar video!
ReplyDeleteGBS- What a great way to start my Monday. I saw three of Bowie's tours in the 80's. NOw I am going up to my bathroom, grabbing a hairbrush and singing like Annie Lennox. Well, obviously not like Annie Lennox or I'd have been on that clip instead of her, but you know what I mean.
ReplyDeleteGBS, thanks for that link, it was great. Debs x
ReplyDeleteYou're lovely plugging his blog, there were comments all over it emanating from here. did i spell that right?
ReplyDeletePigx
I just called in on him too. It is difficult to get started & can remember how I felt when I first started to blog!
ReplyDeleteI also liked his poetry!
I just want to say a big Thank You to you Gone Back South for telling all your lovely friends about my baby Blog! This week has been the most activity I have ever had there!!
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you to everyone who was so kind to have left me such wonderful comments! I wish that I had had the wonderful benefits of a Blog 9 years ago!!
You are all wonderful! :)
Tina, I know, clicking on the words in your profile is fun - it makes me want to put 'axe murderer' as my occupation, just so I can click on it to find out if anyone else has put that too.
ReplyDeletePig, yes, I believe you did. That is indeed spelt t-h-a-t.
Brit in Brazil, it's been a delight! See, I knew you had a big heart :-)
Cath, that's the first time I've been called an egg this week (I think)
Ciara, I'll be over shortly ...
Dumdad, I bet you're in awe of Annie
Expatmum, I went to some Bowie gigs too ... Brixton Academy was the best but Wembley was phenomenal ... was that you I saw down the front?
Lehners & Maggie, thanks!
