Musical Monday - An Upbeat positive song
Some weeks back I made a presentation before a couple hundred people that got a very good response. Colin wrote all about it here. A number of you asked I post the presentation, but at 12 min in length its just too long. I'm in the process of modifying it for my own personal use, so I will share it with you once I'm done. In the meantime, I'll leave you with one of the songs I used for that presentation entitled Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield. The Lyrics are below the fold. Enjoy!

Trade you a peek at your presentation for a hot banana split. The catch is you have to come to the berkshires to get it. (Promise we'll feed you other stuff too!)

Musically, not my style, but excellently done, regardless.
Been a long time since I've seen a song and video that actually had synergy, though. THAT was nice :-)

Or to de-stress, why not listen to some music and then tell me if you loved it or hated it.
Portuguese is one of the 5 languages I understand & speak. If you ask me where I learned it I couldnÂ’t really tell you, because I was too young to remember. What I can tell you is when I returned 10 yrs ago to do volunteer work for a month in the Amazon region of Brazil, I was speaking Portuguese by the end of the first week.
It was then that I first heard the incredibly beautiful voice of Dulce Pontes. Last night as I lay in bed, the melody of Cancao de Mar / Song of the Sea, returned to haunt my sleep, as it does every so often when I think of my friends. I relate to the story she tells, that of the cruel sea snatching her loved ones away from her too soon.
My second favorite song is a duet she sings in Italian with Andrea Boccelli entitled O Mar e Tu / The Sea & You. The lyrics are so beautiful IÂ’ve translated them for you (my Italian is better than my Portuguese) in the extended entry. more...
