Soulmates always have bad days, happy days or days where you know, you just simply can’t get along.

And well, I think of all the many relationships I was previously in, I must say being with AJ is probably the most hardest. I mean we’re happily married now but maybe him being who he is and WHAT industry he is in contributes to that as well.

But then again, my mom always reminds me that ‘Marriage is NOT easy’ and sure as hell it’s not. If I could get a buck for how many times I’ve thought about walking away, I’m pretty sure I would have like 100 LV Bags by now.

Well, enjoy.

Spot at 1:40, she teared. Wow, so sad.

I love you syg. I know I’ll  be our turn to be parents soon, let’s just wait like everyone else.

For you I was a flame
Love is a losing game
Five story fire as you came
Love is a losing game…

Is Suzy Menkes part of the current economic crises we wonder? Are music and fashion suddenly irrelevant “to these straightened times” as she confuses Supertramp with Amy Winehouse as Dolce & Gabbana’s recent SS10 menswear soundtrack??

The obvious age factor aside, when describing the designer’s latest collection she appeared to confuse its embroidery with Versace prints. Suzy, may we suggest it was not embroidery on your mind at all, but studs. It was no coincidence that the “glamorous young guy” Jesus Luz featured on the catwalk. Someone, somewhere is spending a little too much cash on Suzy’s global jaunts…

Ontem foi dia do desfile da Dolce & Gabbana Menswear Spring/Summer 2010, na semana de moda de Milão.
Na passarela a proposta de verão da marca está baseada em:
Bermudas: alfaiataria, sport, ajustadas e que vão afinilando,com barras que vão até a linha do joelho e dobrada.
Camisas, ternos e alfaiataria: em modelagem acinturada (típicos da marca),tecidos texturizados, brilhantes e com aplicações em bordados de muito brilho. Os smoking’s vêm carregados no ‘’shine power”.
Jeans: Rasgado, usado, lavagem agressiva e com cara de que ”já passou por muita coisa nessa vida”.
Tons sóbrios de preto, branco e cinza. A onda das mini-bolsas também vêm com tudo na proposta para o masculino da dupla,além de couro e barras dobradas quase sempre na linha do calcanhar.
No mais…Amy Winehouse na trilha, Jesus Luz na passarela e estética anos 90 super forte.

Homens discretamente brilhantes (ou não…).

Μία από τις τραγουδίστριες που θεωρούνται κορυφή σε αυτό που κάνουν είναι αυτή:

ΣΩΣΤΑ ΚΑΤΑΛΑΒΑΤΕ!! Η Amy Winehouse!! Μία τραγουδίστρια που εμπνέεται από τη ζωή της, με πάρα πολλές περιπέτιες και είναι δυνατή!

Σε μικρή ηλικία, έδειξε το ταλέντο της στη μουσική και μόλις έκλεισε τα 10ο χρόνο της ηλικίας της, δημιούργησε συγκρότημα ραπ με τα παιδιά της γειτονιάς!

Δυστυχώς όλα στη ζωή της δεν ήταν παραμυθένια αλλά σκληρά. Ο πατέρας της είναι ο άνθρωπος που την στήριξε περισσότερο,

Μετά πήγε σε κολλέγιο. Εκεί ανακαλύφθηκε το εξαιρετικό της ταλέντο στη μουσική από την καθηγήτριά της στη μουσική. Έπειτα ακολούθησαν πολλές συναντήσεις με ραδιοφωνικούς παραγωγούς. Η Amy άρχισε να γίνεται γνωστή. Επιπλέον, αποβλήθηκε από το σχολείο που πήγαινε γιατί έκανε piercing στη γλώσσα της.

Έπειτα το όνειρο της χτυπά την πόρτα! Μετα από λίγο καιρό υπογράφει συμβόλαιο με την Sony BMG και η πόρτα για τα στούντιο ηχογράφισης άνοιξε! Έπειτα, το πρώτο της cd, Frank, βγαίνει στην αγορά! Κάνει πάταγο! Πλέον είναι πρώτυπο κάθε νέου!

Το 2008 κυκλοφορεί το επόμενο cd της, Back to black! Έγινε ανάρπαστο! Πούλησε 1 500 000 αντίτυπα σε όλη τη μεγάλη Βρετανία! Βραβεύεται για το πιο εμπορικό cd της Μεγάλης Βρετανίας!

Όμως, πριν από την απελευθέρωση του 2ου CD της,  γνωρίζει τον άντρα της, Blake Fielder-Civil. Έπειτα από τη πιο ευτυχισμένη στιγμή της ζωής της ακούγεται η φήμη πως ο άντρας της την δέρνει και πως της προωθεί ναρκωτικά. Δεν γνωρίζουμε όμως αν όλα αυτά είναι αλήθεια. Έπειτα, από τον χωρισμός της με τον άντρα της, Blake, την εξασθένησε. Αυτό ήταν η Amy νιώθει πληγωμένη. Από τότε εμφανίζεται σε συναυλίες έτοιμη να καταρεύσει. Οι υπερβολικές δόσεις κοκαϊνης και ο αλκοολισμός, την θέτουν στο περιθώριο.

Πέρασε πολλά προβλήματα με την υγεία της, όπως βουλιμία και καταχρήσεις ουσιών εξάρτησης.

Σήμερα η Amy βρίσκεται στην Καραϊβική γράφοντας τραγούδια για το νέο της CD που αναμένετε να βγεί τα επόμενα χρόνια.

Πρέπει να στηρίξουμε όλοι την επάνοδό της στο χώρο της μουσικής. Πρέπει να τη βοηθίσουμε ώστε η Diva να αναγεννηθεί.

Μερικά από τα τραγούδια της:

Την λατρεύω!! Μακάρι να έρθει στην Ελλάδα για συναυλία!!!!! Θα κόψω το πρώτο εισητήριο!!

Περιμένω τα σχόλιά σας!!!

Às vezes eu aposto minhas fichas em pessoas ou coisas que não valem muito a pena. Outras vezes,  me reservo e me preservo, justamente quando é hora de apostar alto. 

Quem não sabe jogar, não brinca. Esta deveria ser a regra número um para muitas  coisas na vida. Se for, me avisem, meu manual veio com defeito e não tem nada   disso escrito lá.

Eu não sei brincar, não sei jogar e se apostasse em cavalos estaria falida, na sarjeta fumando uma guimba do cigarros dos outros.

Why do I wish I never played
Oh, what a mess we made
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game

Me desgasto tanto com tudo isso que no fim canso e deleto as pessoas da minha vida, como quem deleta um arquivo inútil do seu computador.   O fracasso e a preguiça de  continua investindo num jogo perdido, me  torna cruel.

Neste exato momento estou deletando pessoas, teatros e aquários. É menos dolorido quando se livra de tudo logo de uma vez. Pouca coisa fica.

Love is a losing hand
More than I could stand

E quanto ao fim… Primeiro há a sensação de que alguma coisa está faltando. Como se tivesse tirado  um objeto da estante. Depois, você tem que aprender a guardar algumas frases e comentários que costumavam fazer, só para si. Então cantar uma música ou ler qualquer coisa para evitar pegar o telefone e sair ligando e puxando assuntos. A terceira coisa, que é o que eu faço muito bem, é tomar um chá de sumiço, daqueles que fazem o mundo inteiro perguntar se você mudou para o Alasca. Um mês ou dois e bingo! Retoma-se o controle da sua vida e ganha-se umas fichas extras para  voltar para mesa de apostas.

Mas espere! Não pense você que esta que vos escreve é uma pessoa fria e sem sentimentos. Na verdade sou só sentimento. Eu amo. Amo tanto que chega a doer.

O que me alimenta e me mantém viva são as paixões, que rasgam o peito e  entorpecem. Só que eu não amo para sempre, porque o para sempre contradiz as leis tempo. A vida não dura para sempre, logo não posso sustentar eternamente um sentimento num coração que não será eterno. 

via icanread

Eu amo e perco. Eu perco e esqueço. Logo, parto para outra, porque jogando mal ou bem, acredito no amor e continuo  a fazer minhas apostas.

Algumas vezes, não é fácil esquecer e perde-se mais que fichas. 

Não sou muito boa com relacionamentos e jogos. Talvez porque eu esteja jogando da maneira errada e apostando demais. Ou talvez, porque  o amor seja mesmo um jogo para perder.

Over futile odds
And laughed at by the gods
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game*

So far, the album has sold over 11 million copies. With 5.5 million copies sold in 2007 it was the biggest selling album of the year.

Como sou uma pessoa prevenida e que sabe que shit happens, e comigo, all the time, já vou logo adiantando que love is a losing game como já diria a filósofa Amy Winehouse. Explico, tem esse cara, ele é divertido, inteligente, legal, acho que seria um bom partido, acho que em pouco tempo vou gostar muito dele e tenho certeza que com um pouquinho mais de tempo vou achá-lo um boçal, babaca, ridículo e vou odiá-lo até doer. Eu sei, loooouca pride, mas é que é seeempre assim. Eu acho o cara incrível, me envolvo e aí descubro que era um boçal. Esse de agora, por hoje eu acho o máximo, mas isso não quer dizer nada, meu julgamento é falho, eu sou facilmente convencida, me apaixono extremamente fácil por ser passional, e por isso me iludo com qualquer um. Espero que um dia, quando eu pensar que esse texto vai se aplicar ao cara que acabei de conhecer eu me engane e descubra que é ele, que ele é diferente e que eu não vou precisar mais desse texto. Espero que seja com esse cara divertido, inteligente e legal. Espero que ao conhecê-lo melhor eu continue pensando que ele é inteligente, divertido e legal, e que dê certo. Se não der, bom, pelo menos eu tentei, pelo menos eu tive esperança, e se isso não é tudo, é pelo menos uma boa coisa.

tadinha … olha antes …

Apparently, Amy Winehouse is seeking a secret divorce from Blake-on-longer-incarcerated after he asked her to pay his rehab bills of £30,000 (KD 13,000). She hasn’t seen him since he came out and is planning to work out a divorce without handing him the £10 million (KD 4.2 Million) settlement. Consequently, love is a losing game.

Dedicaré la entrada de hoy a Amy.  No a Amy Bruce, la niña ficticia enferma que te pide que por cada correo que reenvíes, se donará un centavo para su curación; sino a la grandiosa Amy Winehouse.

Amy, Amy, Amy…  vive una vida muy intensa.  A sus 24 años ya tiene enfisema pulmonar a causa de sus adicciones.  Su marido está preso.  Pero no podemos negar que tiene una voz privilegiada.  Los dejo con una de mis canciones favoritas, Love is a Losing Game.

For you I was a flame
Love is a losing game
Fire storey fire as you came
Love is a losing game

Why do I wish I never played
Oh what a mess we made
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game

Played out by the band
Love is a losing hand
More than I could stand
Love is a losing hand

Self professed... profound
Till the chips were down
...know you're a gambling man
Love is a losing hand

Though I'm rather blind
Love is a fate resigned
Memories mar my mind
Love is a fate resigned

Over futile odds
And laughed at by the gods
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game

Eu amo a Amy! Para mim ela é algo tão raro nesse nosso mundinho, um estilo, uma voz, um sei o que lá, só sei que gosto muuuito!

Mas ela me deixa cada dia mais triste, porque não há mais o que fazer, perdi as esperanças. Quando eu acho que ela não me choca mais, ela vem e fode.

Para mim a música mais triste dela é Love is a losing game. Por isso digo que Amy is a losing game. Somos seus fãs e numa condição tão medíocre de não poder fazer nada ( nem dizer ” quer curtir, do it, mas não fode, Amy!”) que somos praticamente um bando de Blakes encarcerados, inertes.

Vamos chorar, galera? Medoooo!

- Mas sou mulher de malandro, ela fode e eu continuo amando-a.

Amy Winehouse heeft een onderscheiding gekregen voor het nummer “Love is a losing game” van haar album “Back to Black”. Maar omdat de Britse soulzangeres te laat arriveerde voor de uitreiking, haalde vader Mitch de prijs voor haar op. Winehouse sleepte de prestigieuze Ivor Novello award ook al vorig jaar in de wacht. Toen kreeg de labiele ster de onderscheiding voor het nummer “Rehab”. Take That viel ook in de prijzen. De Britse groep kreeg een prijs voor “Shine”. De Ivor Novello award wordt al 53 jaar elk jaar toegekend door Britse songwriters.

Αυτή η Amy με την παραπονιάρικη φωνή να σου τριβελίζει όλη την εβδομάδα, τη Μεγάλη, το αφτί με το Back2 black. Κόψε τα drugs, Amy, ποιος σου είπε πως μπορείς να πετάς έτσι μέσα στα μούτρα Του το δώρο που σου έδωσε;

Σε λένε «θεά», κι εγώ λέω πως είσαι θεά, κι αν είσαι θεά βγες από τον τάφο Τώρα και περπάτα!

Κάνε Ανάσταση Τώρα μαζί με τους άλλους, η γη, αυτή η τόσο πληγωμένη γη, θα συνεχίσει να γυρίζει, είναι άνοιξη, όλα είναι ανοιχτά, πάντα ο ήλιος θα βγαίνει, οι άνθρωποι παίρνουν αποφάσεις που βελτιώνουν τη ζωή τους, μπορεί να χρειάζονται καμιά μικρή θυσία αλλά γίνεται σε χρόνο dt, και μετά όλα είναι καλά, κόψε την ντρόγκα, Amy, οι άνθρωποι «φτιάχνουν» τη ζωή τους, εσύ έχεις και λεφτά, μπορείς να πας στην καλύτερη αποτοξίνωση, οι άνθρωποι αυτές τις μέρες ξυπνάνε με γέλια και χαρές, ολόκληρες ομάδες είναι γεμάτες νίκη και περηφάνια, προσκυνάνε τον δικό τους Άγιο που σκότωσε τον Δράκο. Κόψε την ντρόγκα, ρε Amy, ένα πεντάλεπτο αφιέρωμα στις ειδήσεις θα σου μείνει και ένα «τι κρίμα», κανείς δεν σου χρωστάει καλή κουβέντα, το YouTube έχει γεμίσει βιντεάκια με σένα να βγάζεις το κρακ [ή την κόκα;] από το μανίκι ή το ηλίθιο μαλλί, κόψε την κηδεία τώρα που ζεις.
