Krantenkoppen op popnuuz.com

Een tijdje geleden merkte ik dat krantenkoppen.be verdwenen was. Ik gebruikte die site regelmatig om een overzicht te krijgen van wat er in de kranten beweegde bewoog die dag, “wat ik gelezen zou moeten hebben”. Na enkele weken dacht ik: nou dan maak ik hem gewoon zelf, maar beter. Dus ik begon te experimenteren met [...]

I'm Yours

I'm Yours

Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
And now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I'll be giving it my bestest
Nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some

I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love
Listen to the music of the moment maybe sing with me
I like peaceful melodys
It's your God-forsaken right to be loved love loved love love

So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and laughed
I guess what I'm saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do
Our name is our virtue

I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

Well no no, well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
Listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me
I like one big family (2nd time: I like happy family)
It's your God-forsaken right to be loved love love love

I won't hesitate no more
Oh no more no more no more
It's your God-forsaken right to be loved, I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

No I won't hesitate no more, no more
This cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours, I'm yours

Six Candles

Six Candles

Your amazing but your taking too much time
I've only got six candles left
And I'm trying to keep this off my mind
It's getting darker but it's the way they make feel
They try to fill my head with questions
They all doubt you but I know your real

If it takes time then I'll be patient
Know that I will stil believe
I'll take your hand and hold it tightly
Because I know you'll carry me

Take me high, Take me in, Take these last six candles
And when I'm tired, and wearing thin.
Give me the strength to carry on
Here I am, see my hands, take these last six candles
We're moving on, we'll keep, keep, moving on

And I'm so thankful for every breath I take
Theres not a moment that goes by
I waste wiping tears out of my crying face
Don't loos so sad, you've missed the point
I'm still so glad I knew you against the odds
I'll take my chances and burn this candle through you

If it takes time then I'll be patient
Know that I will stil believe
I'll take your hand and hold it tightly
Because I know you'll carry me

Take me high, Take me in, Take these last six candles
And when I'm tired, and wearing thin.
Give me the strength to carry on
Here I am, see my hands, take these last six candles
We're moving on, we'll keep, keep, moving on

If I could ever see the way you understand me
When no one else can see it
I know you surround me

I'll be the one who listens only when you tell me
Not walking but running, not talking, yellin

And they might never understand why I do what I do
But I can only speak my mind
And what I feel is true
I'll take a vow to be the only one who stands if it takes
All that I am, I will be standing, there, there

Take me high, Take me in, Take these last six candles
And when I'm tired, and wearing thin.
Give me the strength to carry on
Here I am, see my hands, take these last six candles
We're moving on, we'll keep, keep, moving on

Take me high, Take me in, Take these last six candles
And when I'm tired, and wearing thin.
Give me the strength to carry on
Here I am, see my hands, take these last six candles
We're moving on, we'll keep, keep, moving on

Five tips for taking tango pictures in dark environments

I have been taking tango pictures intensively for more than 2 years now. Most of that time I’ve been using a Canon 350D with a number of lenses. What’s special about tango pictures? Most importantly, the tango events are in the evening/night with minimal lighting. I avoid using a flash, since it’s unpleasant for the [...]

Online Music Store Comparison

ExtremeTech has taken a look at the many popular online music stores and compiled their thoughts into one big roundup. All the biggies are covered: eMusic, Apple's iTunes Music Store, MSN Music, Napster, Sony's Connect Service, Musicmatch, Rhapsody, Virgin and the Wal-Mart Music Downloads Store.

As you can see, there are a lot of choices and a lot of variables to consider, so their last words are probably the best:

All of the services we looked at offer free limited-time trial periods, so if you've been looking to expand your music collection, and are looking to move beyond CDs, then give one of these services a try. In some cases you'll need to give a credit card number during the trial period, and the cancellation is an opt-out process where you'll stay in the service if you don't actively de-activate your account. So if you decide a service isn't for you, don't forget to actively shut the account down to avoid unwanted credit card charges.

Sara Valenzuela - "Lado Este"

Download it here



This song comes at you courtesy of KEXP's World Pop show, which played a different song off "Lado Este" a week or so back. Don't know what it is about breathy Spanish-language vocals that get me, but first Julieta Venegas and now this. It's a new turn for Guadalajara-based Valenzuela, Shakira-ly striking off on her own from her punk-pop band, Dosis. Granted, some of her tracks sound like they cop intros straight from Portishead, but the blend of slinky vocals and jazzy samples distract from that pretty quick. In its darker and weirder moments, Valenzuela's music is reminiscent of Poe's most recent album.
