The Watchmen - Silent Radar

David Bowie - Reality + bonus cd ep

Morrrisey " Ringleaders of the Tormentors" its kinda okay.

Thanks to someone on the radio.

Charles Trénet "La Mer"

La mer
Qu'on voit danser
le long des golfes clairs
A des reflets d'argent
La mer
Des reflets changeants
Sous la pluie

La mer
Au ciel d’été confond
Ses blancs moutons
Avec les anges si purs
La mer bergère d'azur
Infinie

Voyez
Pres des étangs
Ces grands roseaux mouilles
Voyez
Ces oiseaux blancs
Et ces maisons rouillées

La mer
Les a bercés
Le long des golfes clairs
Et d'une chanson d'amour
La mer
A bercé mon cœur pour la vie

That last untranslatable phrase alone* makes me realise why I love the French language and want to end my days walking along a French beach ...

* cradled / rocked / raised my heart in preparation for life (I think)

Gustav Mahler - Symphony No 5 (Berlin Phil/Karajan)

Maybe a tad more sentimental a version than I'd really like, but Karajan and the BPO just get such a glorious sound out of both the brass and the strings.
