In Which I go to town to see Marty Supreme: quite a movie!

Good morning, my dear friend, dear reader of this post, you fine lady, you fine gentleman! Cheers! How are you? Hope you are okay? It has been a week that went by faster than one would expect! I was wanting to write a post earlier than now, and I had a draft, but it was getting too big, and too many threads of thinking going into it, and it would be far out of the scope of a blog post to cover all that I was loosely writing about, it was too big and tiresome to read, too hard to find a finishing line, so I did what I don't usually do and scrapped the whole post, not an easy nor a decision I took lightly, but it was needed, or else the post would just keep dragging on. That said, I am okay. Monday I was pretty melancholic, so this Tuesday I could go to the movies, for the first time since The Phoenician Scheme, which was a good excuse to get out of the house, though the movie disappointed.  I went to the movies, got my ice cream, then popcorn, and also bought a bottle of eau de toil...

Song of the week! In which we pay homage to disco music and Donna Summer!

Hello everyone and happy Friday!! So happy to be here today writing this post for you and for me! How are you? As usual, I wish you the best! The days are still hot and with a very bright sun, it's like the summer is here earlier in 2018, what's going on??? As you know, as much as I love blue skies, I prefer the rain, ANYWAY, but the weather fits well the song I'm bringing today!! We're going to go back in time "just" a little bit for the disco days of the disco queen herself, DONNA SUMMER! And DON'T YOU FEEL THE LOVE IN THE AIR?



This was the first song I heard of her, it came out of nowhere on Spotify last year, and I love it so much! It's so hypnotizing and exuberant! But for some time it was the only song of her I knew, until her name popped into my head for some reason this month, and now I've been listening to her so much, and her songs are truly something else! I still don't know much about this fantastic artist, but I definitely have to keep searching for her and keep discovering her wonderful songs, just like this one! It has almost ten minutes and it holds you for this whole almost ten! And you even ask for more when it's over! I'm such a musical grandpa, I think I tend to love disco music in general, it's truly a rhythm in ebullition!! And if you don't have Spotify, do not worry! I have the link for Youtube as well:


I really encourage you to listen to it, I think it's worth it! Donna Summer is what we have for today, this nice Friday! Thank you so much for being here, I appreciate you a lot! See you next time!
