| | Sous La Lune - Paris Combo | ] | I'm sorry I only got to see the last ten minutes of Ask Any Girl, because Shirley Maclaine's drunk scene + David Niven bashing up Rod Taylor = joy.
On a completely unrelated note, I need to start studying French again. It's annoying enough when you read something in French and can't translate it; it's even more annoying when you read something and you know you used to be able to translate it but can't anymore. I've been listening to some Paris Combo, I just adore their music, and their lyrics, and it's frustrating not to be able to translate them easily. I'm listening to "Sous La Lune", which I can understand, and I've fallen in love with the lyrics:
Sans rancune, sous la lune On applaudit les somnambules Pas trop fort, juste un réconfort Pour leurs efforts Dans la nuit, juste un bruit Celui de leurs pas sur les toits Cible, ô sensible, tu t'immobilises Au bord de l'abîme
Trois pas en arrière Que glacent nos artères Trois pas en avant Pour prendre le temps D'imaginer la chute, mais chuuute...
Still, I don't actually understand what the song is about. Sleepwalkers? The abyss? Huh? Oh well, at least the music is pretty.
ETA: I've been capping some of 8 1/2 and thought I'd put this shot of Marcello Mastroianni up because it makes me giggle. Plus, I love me some Italian man candy.

*thinks the photo looks terribly like Elwood Blues. Who is gorgeous.*
XD
Marcello Mastroianni = The original Blues Brother. Oh yeah. ;)
I hopped on over here from my icon lj _twilightfades and saw your Fellini cap and had to comment, because I L-l-love Fellini and of course Marcello. Anyway, I've seen you around and you're also friends with some of my Lj friends so I was wondering if you'd like to be Lj friends with me too?
I'd love to. We can Fellini fangirl together. Joy!
huzzah! I shall add you right away | |
