well, the "scenario" was quite fiendish, that's why we've been so shocked...i guess...

i won't talk about WWII, or i might talk about it for the next two days non-stop...i very often watch history channels about that subject, and been mostly raised by my granny who's been prisoner at 16, in a german camp for more than an entire year....and my grandpa, god bless him, was a resistant fighter...and not one of "de la dernière heure"..if you know what i mean......so i know the subject well...
every evening, at dinner, my grandma used to tell her story during war...and i was kinda fascinated...always told her that she could have wrote a book...so much stories in one life....it makes me think that...it's probably her, who made me love America...unconsciously...she had had her first love with an American soldier...shot by nazis, in front of her...

well, anyway, the hatchet is buried....since a long long time now...you just can't blame a generation who never knew war....they already feel enough embarrassed by their heavy past( and however, we "all" have an heavy past).....it's like they couldn't be proud of their own country, they had to feel small....it's not that i like chauvinism but i was glad for them to see the german flag everywhere during the world cup...a couple of germans friends told me it was the first time since WWII that they could show their flag without feeling ashamed.. and Germany and France are the closest friends in Europe...we even share a channel "arte" half french/ half german.....and we also have the same WWII history books at school...half french/ half german.....to never forget, but also to move forward.

i'm listenning to big A little a right now, and i have to say that the lyrics sound.....well, i liiiiiike!

Thought post my edit of this for all now I see I don't have to retype the whole thing.

All my life, around me, folks have been falling in love
they say, you get a feeling in your heart
and it makes them so happy, that's good for them
but as for me
I can't have no feelings in my heart
my heart's just that thing next to my lungs
no more feeling than my leg or my tongue
my heart pumps in, my heart pumps out
that's all at my heart's about
so I can't have no feelings in my heart
I don't think I'm heartless, cuz my blood still gets around
that's the only job it has so far and no other function can be found
once, for a minute, I thought that I was falling in love,
and I just came I fell asleep
I wonder if there's something wrong with me
cuz as my life goes on,
I see my friends all fall in love
they say, you get a feeling in your heart
it makes them so happy, that's good for them
but as for me
I can't have no feelings in my heart
my heart is just that thing under my rib
got no more feeling than my hand and eyelid
my heart pumps in, my heart pumps out
that's all at my heart's about
so i can't have no feelings in my heart
kind of think ,I've just spent too much time alone making art
so I can't have no feelings in my heart
but if I can, I wish they'd hurry up and start
