was waiting for me on the sidewalk, when I walked out today...What a surprise! Actually, since I'm short sighted, I wasn't even sure what that little thing was, on the ground...I wasn't sure if it was a piece of wood, or maybe a frog?
Anyway, I realized it was a little bird and couldn't believe what I was seeing! I stooped down, talking to the little guy (it could have been a female robin for all I know), in a very soothing voice, then I started patting it. I nicknamed it *no tweet*, because it didn't say or sing anything.
The little robin (aka the gardener's friend) let me caress it...
To be continued... (;o)* (also with two images)
Wow! all this time, and I didn't update! nor did I post pictures...yucks! Today, at the time of writing, is May 30, 2019/Thursday. and I published this on October 9, 2017...That's bad!

Last Christmas...and then...
HE was gone...
...Do you think we have time?
Do you think we have time?
Do you think we have time?
(maybe we should all pray for time...)
I think of death quite often...it's something that creeps up upon you without notice...and today, (talking about December 25, 2016) I'm so sad about the news of George's passing (quietly in his sleep). 
:'(
:'(
Just a day or two earlier, before his passing, I was talking with some friends, on some of my memories about Artists whom I've interviewed...the topic was what some of them wanted backstage. And I clearly mentioned George Michael (I've interviewed him and seen live performances) making specific request (depending on the city where he had his venues) to have a trained practitioner for massages, during intervals while on stage...And then, this awful news. :'(
:'(
Farewell to blue eyes...iassu...
(additional note on 2017.12.16/Sat.: George did not have blue eyes, they were brown...However, when I interviewed him the first time, in Rome, Italy, off via Veneto, his eyes were blue. It dawned on me at the beginning of this year, looking at some images, where he was with brown eyes, his own eyes. So, obviously, when we spoke, he was wearing contact lens...

sad...sad...
This track came out in 1990 and was the #one hit single to hit the top 100 charts in the U.S., it stayed as Number One for on Billboard, for one whole week. Awesome! sad, true, and dark, at the same time...

I had been playing Christmas songs, since mid December, circa...Christmas songs, meaning *modern* stuff, with Sting, Madonna, the Queen, etc., etc., and, obviously George Michael's (Wham!) hit *Last Christmas*... It will never be the same again...and what a time and way to pass on! a coincidence?
George you are missed...at Christmas, and not only...
Rest upon a Star, with the other Stars, you yourself one, George...*

A sense of Loss...
Recently, more so in the past few days, I've been feeling down hearted and very low key, with a great sense of loss, and a bit hopeless.
Time, or rather me, is going by so quickly, and I still have so many things to do...Many of the things will never be done, and I've realized this just recently, although it's not the first time I think about it. We are so fragile...oh yes, sometimes I get the fleeting thought, that we shall all live forever, and there's plenty of time to do things, but it's not so. And that idea just hits you...flat in my stomach and soul.
I've been updating *my will*, with things to leave to some of my Friends/Fans, here and there...Quite a few will be left out, but not on purpose. Also meaning, that I have given personally a few items, without saying why... I have a list on my coffee table, which is still in draft format.
I don't usually talk (or rather write) such private things on my blog, since it's always about Music, Artists/Musicians, poems, food, or other random subjects, but today, here I am, with some relatively pessimistic thoughts. And written by someone who is as optimistic as I am, that goes to show you how low I feel...
My concern has always been not to be forgotten, that someone will remember me, one way or the other. In fact, at my funeral *celebration*, if anyone is there, one of the songs I would like to be played is *Don't You Forget About Me*, with both performers: Billy Idol and Simple Minds (whom I have interviewed during my journalistic career) One of my dreams would be to become an Astral body, distributing positive energy and vibes all around the universe, and outer space. Another one would be that PEACE embrace the planet and beyond, and no, I don't think that is utopia...It could happen if everyone tried: each single Person. Imagine!
That's all for now...

Queen will be Queen...but, a little different...
In November 1991, when Freddie Mercury passed on, there was shock and sadness in the universe: everyone was devastated by the sad news (including myself!), although, me, personally, I knew it was coming...Remember the single *The Show Must Go On*? it was the 12th from their latest
album all together, entitled INNUENDO...it was almost an epitaph for Freddie's adieu, meaning
so much, yet saying so little. It was a sad sad One...I grieved and cried for many days, whether listening to the album or not. And so did the world!
I was lucky enough to have been able to attend several of their gigs featuring Fred (their frontman and primadonna!), plus the fact of having the honor to interviewing them once (talking with Freddie,Brian, and Roger), in SanRemo, for the song festival, during the release of their album (I received the vinyl from the Recording company) entitled THE WORKS (release date: February 27, 1984). This was their 11th studio album, and I love it: it also has *Radio GaGa*, which they performed at the song festival of San Remo, written by Roger Taylor.

Queen were: Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor, John Deacon...Some changes over the years, following Freddie's death, plus John Deacon's *retiring* in 1997. For a while they had Paul Rodgers as lead singer, until they bumped into Adam Lambert (American Idol finalist), and...it was Magic!
They have been performing together since 2011, Adam is the most suitable Person--for many reasons--to fit in Freddie's place, in my opinion (that's also what Brian and Roger said). He has stage presence, an awesome voice that reaches peaks similar to Freddie's, and is the missing piece to the Band. So now it is Queen+Adam Lambert.
They will be in Italy (brought by Barley Arts, Claudio Trotta management), on June 25, 2016, performing at the Anfiteatro Camerini, in Piazzola del Brenta, near Padua. Tickets cost 82 Euros and can be bought online, also with Ticketone.com.
The Queen + Adam Lambert 2016 Summer Festival Tour is a summer stadium/
They will...will Rock You...Rock You!
No one will ever replace Freddie Mercury, and his memory will always be with you, me, them, and the future ones to come...

♬♛♬ the Prince is gone... ♬♛♬
This is unbelievable...yet it is! (Most news sources keep saying *if it is confirmed, Prince died at
a young age: so maybe it's a hoax?)
April 24, 2016/Sunday, at the time of writing this note: It's not a hoax...Unfortunately, it's true
reality...the kind that hits you in your stomach, right smack in the middle, and leaves you breathless, gasping for air.
Thursday, April 21, 2016...another one hits the dust: Prince.
This is one link I wish to post, mostly because, at least, there are some songs of his, one of them being *Kiss*, which could not be found on YouTube.
http://www.vox.com/2016/4/21/11480440/prince-died-songs
Continued on 2016.4.24/Sun.
Funny how all of a sudden, YT has so many of Prince's videos online. Before, it was so difficult to find something of his. Prince really strived to control what could or could not go online.
One video and song--among my favorites, although quite sad, is *Sign o' the Times*...also
*Kiss*, where he shows his dancing skills too.
Release date: March 31, 1987...Prince was always several steps ahead of everything, in the Music industry. Machine guns, aids, drugs, mamas who couldn't feed their babies, etc., etc...Indeed, the sign of the sad times, brought up in this raw and crude track, also covered by Simple Minds.
And finally, here comes *Kiss* (which was covered by Tom Jones), showing the little Big Man's dancing artistry, besides singing, and having penned the lyrics, and the Music!
The quality of the video isn't that great, but...it's better than nothing...

Leap Year comment... (;o)*
Happy leap year...happy extra day to All! sunglasses emoticon
A big number of media sources are saying that one should make the most out of this day, which is considered an *extra* day in one's life tongue emoticon February 29, 2016/Monday (leap year) and should be a day of rejoicing... kiki emoticon hurray, hurray? wonder...wonder.
Before hearing all this news, I've thought, over these past years, that there should be a *revolution* (and, also a sort of rebellion against the system...chuckle chuckle). Why can't every month just have 31 days?! That would bring a longer year...But then, what with the alignment of the stars and planets, and other consequences? would that create a turmoil? frown emoticon Would everything have to be reset? (I had to reset my Citizen digital watch, which had already skipped to March 1...) tongue emoticon
Anyway, whatever...enjoy your life to its brim, whether it's a leap year or not...
