¿POR QUÉ LA CANCION SE LLAMA BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY?…
¿POR QUÉ DURA EXACTAMENTE 5 MINUTOS 55 SEGUNDOS ?… ¿DE QUÉ TRATA REALMENTE ESTA CANCIÓN?…¿POR QUÉ LA PELÍCULA DE QUEEN SE ESTRENÓ EL 31 DE OCTUBRE?
La película se estrenó el 31 de octubre porque el single se escuchó por primera vez el 31 de octubre de 1975. Se titula así porque una “Rapsodia” es una pieza musical libre compuesta en diferentes partes y temas donde parece que ninguna parte tiene relación con la otra. La palabra “rapsodia” proviene del griego y significa “partes ensambladas de una canción”.

Dignity is a measure of your pride? 

Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm

Dignity is a measure of your pride? 

My busy predisposition could not confine me 
to the walls of the room

I hope I've managed a smile on your face

I WAS NOT BORN INTO THIS LIFE TO DIE

A decimated spirit? A dream in pieces? A battered heart? A desperate cry? Will you not acknowledge me? Am I here? Or I’m rather gone? Elsewhere? Rather content hidden behind laughter? Though I want to scream I want to cry, though I will never admit that I rather die The inaudible words - I’m fine Where were the angels? Where were you yesterday? Where are you now? The demons are ripping my heart apart Will you be my victor? Will you be my saviour? I doubt it Can’t you see me dying Lying there in coming into the light in the dark It’s not a paradox not sarcasm, don’t bother asking R u o k I…

Smorgasbord Laughter is the Best Medicine – 42nd Anniversary Edition – Marriage – Hosts David and Sally Cronin — Filosofa’s Word

Originally posted on Smorgasbord Blog Magazine: It is our 42nd Wedding Anniversary today… and whilst there does not seem to be an official identifier such as silver, ruby, gold or diamond for 42 years, I think every year should come under the classification of laughter. So today a few marriage words of wisdom and funnies…
