Aunty Q's Advice Thread Part Three: something to rely on.

Dear Aunty Q,

Hallowe'en again and the forecast is crap. Can I come round and hide behind your sofa in the warm, instead of supervising Son2 in his quest to lure spooky passers-by into his Shed of Horror? ? I'll bring sweets.

Such a long way to go until the Last Post

I know that looking back sounds like the rocky theme, and keane admitted this by adding the "rocky" lyric in it. but has anyone noticed that the track house lights sounds really similar to the music in mad max? does anyone know if this was deliberate or is it just coincidence that they sound similar? please help naily, cowpie or vic!

Testi - Difficult Child

blueberrynight — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 17:28:44 GMT

È con grande onore che oggi inauguro nel forum un nuovo spazio dedicato ai testi che amiamo di più.
Se vi siete sempre chiesti cosa c'è on the other side, dove è andata Allemande o perché a Tim piaccia così tanto il verbo tumble... avete trovato il thread che fa per voi.

A turno possiamo scegliere una canzone oppure lasciare un commento su tutto ciò che riguarda i testi in generale, la loro interpretazione, le sensazioni che ci comunicano, cosa li rende così speciali.

Non esistono regole, ognuno può esprimere il proprio pensiero come preferisce.
L'unico accorgimento che invito a seguire è quello di marcare i post mettendo il titolo della canzone anche nello spazio riservato ai tag, in modo da rintracciarli velocemente a distanza di tempo.

Ringrazio Roby per il suo appoggio, Simona per avermi trasmesso entusiasmo e qualche prezioso consiglio, Mr. Timothy Rice-Oxley per averci fornito tanto meraviglioso materiale (& Tom, of course!)... e tutti coloro che avranno il piacere di prendere parte a questa avventura che mi auguro ci permetta di scoprire nuove cose e divertirci allo stesso tempo.

P.S. Si accettano idee per un titolo più originale e carino.

Ecco l'elenco aggiornato delle canzoni finora considerate (ricordo che potete trovare i testi e le traduzioni di tutte le canzoni nel sito Keane.it)

- Somewhere Only We Know
- Love Is The End
- Your Love
- Leaving So Soon?
- Difficult Child

blueberrynight:

Grazie Simo per il resoconto dei due concerti e per il ricordo di Scott. Mi dispiace tantissimo per la sua scomparsa, ancora oggi mi sembra impossibile . Anche se attualmente stava lavorando per i Radiohead, Scott era una parte importante della "famiglia" Keane, probabilmente una delle persone più vicine alla band: sempre presente prima, durante e dopo i live, sempre pronto ad intervenire per risistemare la batteria di Rich, il cavo allentato di una tastiera e in ogni altra evenienza. Ricordo anche un episodio buffo di qualche anno fa, quando un tipo piuttosto alticcio comparve improvvisamente sul palco cercando di "abbracciare" Tom. Scott, più rapido della security, gli balzò addosso, spingendolo via e mettendo Tom al sicuro.
Deve essere stato difficilissimo per i ragazzi cercare di mettere da parte il dolore e offrire comunque una bella performance ai loro fans.

Ritornando ai due live, finalmente hanno allungato la setlist! Tra tutte le foto mi ha fatto piacere vedere in particolare la consegna ufficiale dei cantuccini a Tom (secondo me li hanno graditi, durante i lunghi spostamenti col tour bus ci vuole qualcosa da sgranocchiare ogni tanto).
Grazie anche per la curiosità sul testo di Myth, anche se per il momento si ostinano a non volerla suonare dal vivo.
Mi chiedo cosa dirà Richard quando ti vedrà nuovamente nei prossimi due concerti hahaha!

Causa problemi di strana duplicazione threads apriamo il terzo thread quotando l'ultimo messaggio che era scritto.

Greece - Are you there?

sustained. — Mon, 21 May 2012 14:55:11 GMT

The following is from an individual on msnbc.com's message board regarding Greece (and the rest of us) and I found it profound and want to share it with you. What are your thoughts if any on this thought provoking content? Can we speak about such things anymore? I am an American currently residing in America and the atmosphere here is simmering with uncertainty too. TrustVerify (msnbc.com) The United States is in line to get our country foreclosed upon, just like what’s happening to the European countries. The entire banking system is corrupt and rigged and the rating agencies are insignificant. Spain is the next Greece. It is just one of the dominoes that is falling as the money junkies move in to buy countries for pennies on the dollar who are involved with the Federal Reserve. The governing elite of psychopathic bankers/Federal Reserve, Wall Street, corrupt politicians, and powerful mega-corporations create crises, then save us from the crises they created, while accumulating more control, wealth and power. This perpetual swindle has been going on for decades and has reached its zenith. This demented psychology is called Problem – Reaction – Solution. It is time to remove and arrest this criminal cabal that has enslaved humanity. I think most people have figured out that Wall Street is one of the most corrupt and ethically deprived institutions on our planet. I think most people also know the media is bought and sold just like most politicians. We also know that Wall Street is one of many tools of the elite but not the main tool. What is very clear is that our financial system has an architect and carefully designed plan that is playing itself out in Europe. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is very brazen in its fear mongering that we have lost a decade economically. Especially since the IMF has been one of the biggest contributors to perpetuating the instability of the European crisis. The dominoes are beginning to fall in what is an orchestrated attempt by the banksters to consolidate Europe and eventually the rest of the world’s economies under one umbrella that is to be controlled by those that have always controlled currency and money. The most egregious aspect of this contrived extortion is that they are blaming the people who are the backbone of any economy instead of their greedy corrupt political and business leaders. George Papandreou was pressured to quit because he lapsed into a morally and ethical responsible position by trying to give the people of Greece a say in their economic future through a referendum. This vote would have given the Greek people the choice to stay in the Euro zone and allow their country to be foreclosed upon by the banksters or leave the Euro regain their sovereignty and coin their own currency once again. The IMF bullied the smallest country as a litmus test for what is going to be a much more challenging foreclosure process when it comes to the larger economies. Spain and Italy are now in the cross hairs. This dilemma you are watching unfold goes to the core of the rotten apple that is the world’s financial system. Folks, you are witnessing the death throes of a desperate corrupt financial system where the stock markets and the fractional reserve banking system are at its core. The volatility in the stock markets are a microcosm of the greed, theft and corruption that has perpetrated all aspects of our and other countries economic systems. In the United States, It doesn’t matter who’s in office. Our political system has turned into a two headed one party system with both parties serving their masters, Wall Street and the banksters/Federal Reserve. The stock market is just another ponzi scheme whose intent is to fleece the gullible at the bottom of the pyramid. The stock market is a rogue element of a financial system that is meant to funnel the wealth to the elite/banksters who soicopathically control our financial lives. It is reaching a point where there is nothing more to take from the 99% of the world. The banksters would separate you from your rainy day fund if they could gain access to your shoe box or secret compartment in your purse or wallet. The stock market isn’t the main problem; it’s the fractional reserve banking system that has set the foundation for outright theft. We are experiencing the biggest bank and investment robbery in history and the banks and financial institutions are doing the robbing. When you blame one political party or another they have you right where they want you, in fear, divided and distracted to the theft that is going on right in front of your eyes each and every second of the day. When you have people on Wall Street day trading and speculating making half a million dollars a year in their twenties betting on people being foreclosed on, you need to ask yourself what is the true purpose of our banking system? At the moment it is largely a theft on the American public. MF Global CEO, ex Goldman Sachs CEO John Corzine knows this and knows that nobody with his connections have served any time for stealing the investor’s money (1.6 billion at last count). The financial system’s main mission should be to allocate capital to areas of greatest growth in the real world economy. Yet they allow all kinds of broker speculation and financial gimmicks such as the derivative markets which are based on non-realistic side bets which are now in the quadrillions. The derivatives market was illegal for most of the 20th century. The European banking crisis is a prime example of what is going to happen to all economies associated with stock market fraud and the Federal Reserve banking system. The financial strife in Greece is the model that will befall most countries. Greece is but a symptom of a cancer that has attached itself to the world’s economies. The Federal Reserve (which is neither federal nor a reserve) has been creating money (monopoly money) out of thin air and charging interest on it insuring a debtor economy for anyone who chooses or is forced to get involved with the Federal Reserve and their fractional reserve banking system. That is why this whole European or any countries current debt crisis will never be resolved and will be preyed upon by the stock market vultures. The Federal Reserve System is designed to cause economies to fail. If someone loans you two dollars to run your economy and expects three back for the loan and interest how are you going to pay the third back? You can’t unless you borrow more dollars which puts you in perpetual debt and in a constant borrowing cycle to pay off the debt. This is designed not accidental. Here’s the kicker, once the Federal Reserve/banksters have you struggling to pay off your interest, they send in their loan sharks the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The IMF will loan you money to cover your ever burdening interest payments but they attach a provision that if you default, you will have to give them your assets in what they call privatization (foreclosure). Since the interest is exponential, you will default and the banksters will come in and try to foreclose on your country, like Greece, Spain’s next. They are being told to sell off their own country to pay back the people who caused the mess to begin with. This allows the elite to steal your intrinsic valuable assets because they gave you paper (loans/debt) and the interest on the debt that is systematically impossible to pay back. This also allows the parasitic stock speculators to profit from this designed theft. They not only know the outcome of an economy, they can gamble on the economic bubbles at the investor’s expense. This cancer goes all the way down the food chain. In the United States case, it doesn’t have to be that way. In our constitution, in Article 1, Section 8, it stipulates that we can “coin money” as a nation and avoid the Federal Reserve’s interest (fee charged on loans) black hole. The Federal Reserve has a 100 year charter and it is up in 2013. We have to stop these banksters from gaining an extension by our corrupt paid off politicians. If we can stop the extension, our income taxes will drop dramatically! End the Fed! So don’t be fooled that the Europeans have come to grips with their financial debt, it’s impossible, it’s a designed virus that has spread around the globe. The Europeans are now replacing their leaders with technocrats/ex Goldman Sachs banksters. These people haven’t been elected by anybody. The stock market vultures will continue to contrive “financial instruments” (credit default swaps/credit derivatives) to defraud the people of the world. The Federal reserve at the end of the day, is just another private company and its debts are NOT the debts of America or the American taxpayer. What we are looking at folks, is the demise of the most vile and corrupt institution ever put on Earth Banks, Central banks, World Bank, BIS, IMF = Federal Reserve = Debtor economies, Debtor Nations (economic slaves) and carrion for the stock market derivative heist. 44 votes #1.5 - Wed May 16, 2012 2:42 PM EDT
