Another indulgence. There's just something about music in French that gives me gooseflesh. And who better for this than the inestimable Edith Piaf?

I love music. All kinds of music. What you're going to find here is a featured artist and song each day, in alphabetical order. I'm keeping it simple, so if you want a quick read, I'm it. Please let me know how you like my choices, suggestions for improvements, an artist and song you'd like to see, whatever it takes to get you to leave me a comment, because that's my payback for doing this.

About Me
- Vanessa
- I guess you could say I'm a hedonist. My favorite things in the world tend to stimulate the senses to the nth degree. I like to wear soft, delicate fabrics. I love to eat and savour every single bite. Meals with me can take a long time. I love wine, for the colour, the scent, the taste and the feeling. Massage, both giving and receiving, is not a luxury but a necessity IMHO. I'm not a girly girl, but I'm a dyed-in-the-wool romantic. I love old movies with happy endings. I also enjoy a good cry, but not too often because the world is just too lovely. I love the way dancing makes me feel. I never get tired when I'm dancing, but sometimes the crash afterwards can be brutal. That's when I need TLC the most. Music that touches my heart can lift me up and make me feel beautiful inside, even in the most awful moments. Um, other than that, I'm a dancer. Not married, although I came close a couple of times. I'm too married to my career, I guess. I teach dance class to little kids, too. So that is me. You want more, you'll have to ask.
SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT
College Boy vs Senior Citizen
A very self-important college freshman attending a recent football game, took it upon himself to explain to a senior citizen sitting next to him why it was impossible for the older generation to understand his generation. "You grew up in a different world, actually an almost primitive one," the student said, loud enough for many of those nearby to hear. "The young people of today grew up with television, jet planes, space travel, man walking on the moon, our spaceships have visited Mars. We have nuclear energy, electric and hydrogen cars, computers with light-speed processing .....and," pausing to take another drink of beer, the Senior took advantage of the break in the student's litany and said, "You're right, son. We didn't have those things when we were young........so we invented them. Now, you arrogant little shit, what are you doing for the next generation?"
The applause was resounding...

Thank you for visiting, Bond. I like how you match your music to the theme of the day. Mine is still quite random in comparison.
