Bizarre Love Triangle .. Frente

[idgiehkt]

1. wow.

I knew that "Bizarre Love Triangle" rang a bell but I couldn't place it. Interesting cover.

Here's a Fiona Apple song/video that I watched over and over the other night, major end of relationship song:
Never is a Promise
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxPzZnof2Sk&mode=related&search=

man youtube is running like shit right now unless it's just my computer.

[Guava Jelly]

3. Thats a really deep song

She is an excellent vocalist!
and :hug:

[idgiehkt]

6. yes

she is such a prodigy. I think she wrote those songs in her teens and some of them just blow me away. There are lines in "Shadowboxer" that I was in my thirties before I would have had the self-awareness to write. I think she's a really old soul.:hi:

[Deja Q]

2. And not in a lewd way, I presume.

:rofl:

Lemme find something more apropos...

7. This is one of my favorite Led Zeppelin songs but......

But not sung by the singer from LZ you'd expect to sing it.

It's really amazing!

13. I saw this one a few months ago

It was about a month before he died and it was sad then. After he died, it really was sad.

Wait a bit until they show him walking around recently. :(

15. very nice

thanks, I've never seen that.

14. Easy

Pink.."Dear Mr. President" http://youtube.com/watch?v=TroQxo4sTIU

[Guava Jelly]

19. man pink can sing her ass off!!

thanks for sharing it!

[benny05]

23. This was not the first rendition I had seen

But in this one, I noticed that when she lets off on "know nothing about hard work" her chest got red, which means she really put herself into the anger, and let it happen.

Our president sucks...and this song is a great example of his miserable failure. Pink sings it all.

[ScreamingMeemie]

17. This song always makes me cry and think of people in my life

who have died, or left the relationship:

18. K.D. Lang

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIiqdMr-I1Y

I don't think there's anything she's done that I don't love.

[u4ic]

35. That's a beautiful video

I was listening to her again today; Songs of the 49th Parallel.

Her renditions of "A Case of You" and "Hallelujah" are simply divine. :-)

[crim son]

37. I so agree.

And they're both on my iPod, with "Love is Everything". I'm glad you like the video! :pals"

32. Klaus Kinski with a butterfly

Regardless of who it is, the footage is wonderful on so many levels. Factoring in Werner Herzog's narration (& the fact he shot it) and the history behind that enhances it further.

(It ends when the credits start rolling at 1:30; I'm not sure why the uploader included them.)

34. Not youtube, but a must-see

http://www.petparrot.com/

Click on parrot movies, then Roscoe takes up opera. An Amazon parrot singing "I left my heart in San Fransisco".




:rofl:

[idgiehkt]

38. really cute!

I was gonna post a hot link but they disabled the right click which drives me utterly freaking insane!!!! Over a parrot picture???? Get a grip.

Do you have parrots? I used to have a green cheeked conure but he died. I now have a cockatiel. My conure was miserable for most of the time that I had him even though he was allowed time out of the cage alot of the day and I had a screen porch for him to be on too. I strongly suspect he was wild caught. My cockatiel is totally hand raised and is not a good flyer at all, his wings were clipped the whole time he was growing I think and he never properly developed the muscles. I guess that's the proper way but I don't like it. If he flies too much now he gets very exhausted and pants really hard. My conure could fly like the Brown Bomber or the Red Baron, he was like a torpedo.

[u4ic]

39. Not anymore

I've had cockatiels and a Moustached Parakeet. (I love the look of them, but they aren't particularly cuddly birds)



Once I move out of my present accomodations (hopefully very soon), I'm going to get another one - a Senegal or a Meyers. I love parrots. :hi:

[idgiehkt]

40. that is the most beautiful bird!!

I have never seen one like that before.

I know why cockatiels are so popular, because my little guy is the best-natured little tyke ever. He was given to me by someone who had cats and they were afraid the cats would get him because he didn't have an adequate cage. He was only my second bird, the conure being the first...the conure bossed him around all the time because Connie (the green cheek) was so dominant. Chicken Little handled it well, but now he is king of the mountain being alone and I don't want to bring another bird in on him and knock him out of top position. I have a mini-lop and they stay in my cabin together all day. They never have bonded like I though they would but I do think they like knowing the other is there.

I really would like to have some gouldian finches...but I have sworn to myself *no more exotics* once the two that I have pass away. My mini-lop came from an animal shelter and he is six years old, so he probably has another few years at most. My cockatiel is quite young, I hope he will be around another 20-25 years but you never know. He is an extremely hardy bird...he deals well with the extremes of temperature in my cabin where it can be 80 in the summer or 60 in the winter; it doesn't seem to phase him at all but that's probably because he came from less than ideal circumstances where he was actually stuffed in a corner and his cage was covered 24 hours a day...it was pitiful.

[u4ic]

42. Poor thing...

:-( I'm so glad you have him now, where he can be taken care of.

I agree, cockatiels are very agreeable and hardy birds. Mine had at least 7 or 8 moves with me, and it didn't faze him at all. He used to know about 2 weeks before I started packing, though...he'd get antsy and just know another move was imminent.

My cockatiel was so much fun; he used to have a little game with his 2 small latex dinosaurs (which were slightly bigger than him; the T-Rex was his favourite). He would grab it, flip it over, walk to it, bop his head and make a little "take that!" noise; then repeat it all across the living room. It was hilarious...:rofl:

He was also pretty intuitive. After my ex and I would have a tiff, he would always do something silly to break the tension - it would make us both laugh.

I had only had him for a few months when I got a terrible flu; I remember laying on the chesterfield, and the cage door was open. He climbed out of the cage, down it (it was a standing one), walked across the room, climbed up the chesterfield and sat on my head, preening my hair and eyebrows. I thought it was so cute, that it was his way of comforting me.

MPs are incredibly beautiful. Mine was a rescue; he had been neglected, and was almost wild when I got him. I named him Rev after Reverend Jim from Taxi - he used to swing upside down from the top of his cage and mutter to himself. That's completely normal, but to outsiders, he looked completely insane. LOL

[idgiehkt]

44. LOL

I know my bird could be said to be crazy, he fights with his play gym at least once a day. I have to yell at him to get him to stop.

He also likes to sleep on my head. I wake up with bird shit in my hair on a regular basis. Normally he only does this in winter, he uses my head as a foot warmer.

[Left Is Write]

41. I have never watched a youtube video.

Am I the only one?

45. An overlooked band from the late 70s/early 80s NY..

... scene. Thought to have been formed as a response to Talking Heads, produced by Philip Glass, they did one totally classic album, one pretty good album, one EP and then disbanded.

I give you... Polyrock
