A more detailed update later on on the State of Me, but for the moment, let me amuse with the following:

A) there is a very special corner in the Special Hell for me, I'm afraid. Right before Christmas, I spent a good half a hour intensely slashing one of my brothers with his ex-partner (mother of my niece)'s actual partner. Really, they would work so well as a slash couple, my brother all grumpy and brusque and hiding himself behind that stern masque, and the other guy (French, he only speaks a little Italian) all sweet and 'buono come il pane' (as good as bread) as we say in Italy. Plus, having one kid and a half in common, and the woman in between (my brother's ex).
It's the perfect slash recipe, I tell you. And even aesthetically, they complemet each other.

*sends self to the Really Very Naughty Corner*


B) bless my eldest brother (not the above, the other one), who's my buddy and my initiator to most good things in life, like SCIFI in all media, TV and books, passion for reading, internet geek and so on (he was one of the very first in Italy to learn programming, I kid you not)(and yes, he's ten years older than I am, but we always got along beautifully). Anyway, as I was saying, my eldest brother now and then digs up music that I fall in love with, and this is his latest (re)discovery, which I've been listening to madly these past few days, and really, the vids I found on YouTube are something to watch, so creepy-cheesy-weird you wouldn't believe it!

Sparks official site with filmography, short clips, live program (oh but I'd love to be able to go see this summer!), etc. etc. two brothers, and both intriguingly weird. Also, methinks some of thier songs could be great for vidding.
Aaaaand, they have a song titled Pineapple. What more can you ask for, lol.

Anyway, a few vids found on YouTube for your perusal. Enjoy :D

A favourite of mine is the song Your call is very important to us, please hold but I couldn't find a clip for it.





Song in Heaven (there's a clip on their website of a new video of this, very well made, imo)




The Rhythm Thief (one of my favourites)




La Dolce Vita




This Town Ain't Big Enough




Beat The Clock (another favourite)

I remember Sparks ... dimly :D

LOL - slashing relatives! Bad you :) ... but you're right that is a classic combination.

P.S. Are you still coming to the party?

I just saw your email! My Bulk box has become particularly voracious, lately, for whatever reason. Sorry about that, and sorry, also, but no, I won't be coming to the party (will explain in email).

However, before Christmas I went around for shopping and I saw TH merchandise (posters, CDs, t-shirts, diaries, what have you) in several music shops, and I asked inside, and everyone said that everything TH sells like mad :)

Me too :)
A very recent discovery for me, but one I'm enjoying truly.
Also, I saw the pics of your dogs (adorable, a friend of mine had one just like that) and your pics without make up, wow. I mean, you're impressive with make up, but really do not need it! :)

Heeee *G*

It was there! They were cosy-looking! So much complex dynamics! *giggles*

I didn't exactly imagine the what and how in details, but seriously, they were perfectly slashy *G*
Kisses!
