Yvonne (One of the few female singers I like)

Here's a little something, for memories.

-------------------

And Janis Joplin, And Alaska's Jewel Kilcher.
Bet you have not heard about Yvonne :)

"The R&B powerhouse presents an emotional soul ballad from her upcoming feature film Dreamgirls."

Yvonne Elliman

Jesus Christ Superstar (1973) I Dont Know How To Love Him
Arguably, the finest female rock singer. What say?

The 2000 version: (NOT Yvonne! The 1973 version is better, though the 1971 version is a tad better that that too!)

Amazing sketch.

There seems to be no limits to the talent of man. Here is this guy, who has sketched a woman from inside-out using a pencil and an eraser. This must have taken him a huge amount of time! Absolutely amazing!!

And you could listen to this podcast of someone caught cheating on his wife. In pvt., of course.

And here's the Mumbai music scene for Feb.

Alan Parson's Project! - 2nd Feb.


Walter Trout - 3rd Feb. (Heard this guy play last year. He's Ok, nothing exceptional)


Buddy Guy! - 4th Feb.


"
That's Buddy Guy
I need to locate some good pure toke quickly.


Roger Waters!! - 18th Feb. Will give this a miss. The studio stuff of Floyd is good enough for me. I mean, exactly how much moolah can you spend on stuff like this? Yeah, I'll spend anything if its the Stones or a Beatles reunion, but looks like these oldies are now trying to milk out the third world. At 1, 2 and 3 grand, I think the price is a little steep. For that I could get 10 grams of pure sandalwood oil or Jamine Sambac!

Since I'll be carrying my Leica (heh, it's actually a Panasonic Lumix digital, with a Leica lens), will post some great live pics! Pl. cheer when you see them.

The Kol pics taken by my friend turned out to be a total washout on account of the poor if not NIL lighting.

and then ...!! Goa!! on the 24th!

So you guys know that there probably not be much action around these dates on my blog. In fact, the blog may actually vanish for some time! (We all have our reasons, heh!).

Reign o'er me.

Reign on me (trailer)

releasing Jan 2007

Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam takes on "Love reign on me" by The Who, inarguably one of my favorite tracks.

Check out the voice of Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam! He's done a supeb scream! Its almost as good as the scream done by Roger Daltry on the original.

Here it is. The ORIGINAL "Love Reign On Me" by ---- The Who!!




Only love
Can make it rain
The way the beach is kissed by the sea.
Only love
Can make it rain
Like the sweat of lovers'
Laying in the fields.

Love, Reign o'er me.
Love, Reign o'er me, rain on me.

Only love
Can bring the rain
That makes you yearn to the sky.
Only love
Can bring the rain
That falls like tears from on high.

Love Reign O'er me.

On the dry and dusty road
The nights we spend apart alone
I need to get back home to cool cool rain.
The nights are hot and black as ink
I can't sleep and I lay and I think
Oh God, I need a drink of cool cool rain.

Urination will go to committee

A local decision that schoolboys must sit on toilet seats when urinating has provoked political debate.

The head of The Democrats Party, a splinter group of former Progress Party hardliners, Vidar Kleppe, is outraged that boys at Dvergsnes School in Kristiansand have to sit and pee.

Kleppe accuses the school of fiddling with God's work, and wants the matter discussed at the executive committee level of the local council, newspaper Dagbladet reports.

"When boys are not allowed to pee in the natural way, the way boys have done for generations, it is meddling with God's work," Kleppe told the newspaper.

"It is a human right not to have to sit down like a girl," Kleppe said.

Principal Anne Lise Gjul at Dvergsnes School would not comment on Kleppe's plans to make political waves and regretted if anyone was offended by the ban on standing and passing water.

Gjul told NRK (Norwegian Broadcasting) that the young boys are simply not good enough at aiming, and the point was to have a pleasant toilet that could be used by both boys and girls.
