I have been recently seeing a 25 yr old dev and while she was over my place asked me if it was ok to listen/watch some of her favourite music/videos.

This is one of the videos (the first one she put on as this is her favourite group and the group is extremely popular in Russia with young people). Of course, I found it a little strange at first and the music is different to say the least, but note the number of views of this video (66+mln)


It has English subtitles.

Anna, the 25 yr old has some interesting views on life and her future in Russia like many her age. This, according to her, is suppose to be about opposition to Putin and the elites here and that they think there is no future for them in Russia.

I have to say the girl scares me at times :laugh:

Danchik, That girls taste in music is dark.

On a different note, since we are a week away from St. Valentine's day why not some love songs. Below is one nearly 50 years old. J. Lennon commented after the break up of the Beatles that P. McCartney could only write "silly love songs'. I am uncertain if this is fact.

The band is neglected or unknown. From Los Angeles in the late 1960's they were a mix of so many influences. This is a recording from a live concert in London, 2003.

The group Love challenged many barriers at the time.

Love is sometimes symbolized by a ring. Ring though has many meanings. Two songs about a 'ring' one from South Carolina the other from Canada.

An exceptional musician! As I recall he bought the farm in a Bell Jet Ranger (CFIT enroute to a concert). A pity because he really was one of the greats.

For tomorrow, Woman's Day! Remarkable that the woman backing P. Gabriel is P. Cole.

While a live performance, it is almost a zombie audience.

There are references to those before including.

But who is Les Paul?
