  • Gianmarco – Entre la Arena y la Luna Lyrics Translation

    I thought that I would practice my Spanish to English translation skills by translating some songs — I’ve recently done partial translations of Marc Anthony [1], as well as Shakira and Gianmarco when I talked about What Were Good Lyrics. I’ve also done full translations for Polvos Azules: A Cinephile’s Paradise, and random songs of Los Nosequien y los Nosecuantos [1][2].

    So I thought I would pick an oldie, the 1995 Gianmarco release — some say it’s a 1994 release, but my copy has a 1995 print — of Entre la Arena y la Luna (Between the Sand and the Moon). Obviously, I can’t post ALL lyrics on one go, so I’ll probably add them as I work on them. Gianmarco’s lyrics weren’t as complicated then — and they’re pretty short — so they should be fairly easy to translate.

  • Volkswagen’s The People’s Car Project: Hover Car

    Sure, the Volkswagen clip is CGI, but you gotta admit that a hover car is so damn cool.

    Plus! With the Google Self-Driving Car – it’s so much awesome, right? Though, I’m still divided with the whole big car thing… I still think Dr. Nakamats might be onto something.

  • Helena Bonham Carter for Interview by Peter Lindbergh

    I’m shocked that I don’t have a helena bonham carter tag. O_O

  • Two Are Married, One to Go~

    I can’t believe Ella got married. I mean, I can believe that Selina would — I had a whole year to realize that — but, YOU KNOW, it was Ella. Did you think Ella would be getting married? In any case, did you think Ella wouldn’t be the last one getting married?

    The more you know~

  • Marc Anthony vs. Marc Anthony – FIGHT!

    “You’d be crazy, Amy. How can Marc Anthony FIGHT! with himself?”

    Of course, he can! He’s got exact versions of his songs in different languages! So which ones are better? Obviously, Marc Anthony flies that Spanish/English barrier easily, but his Spanish discography, let’s just say, it’s more prolific and slightly more meaningful.

    It’s almost too much of a shame to find the VEVO version of his song I Need You, when the better version — equally corny, but much more meaningful Spanish lyrics — of Te Amare [MV] has only been uploaded by a fan.

  • Kalle Mattson – Thick as Thieves

    Besides the style, which I love, I’m totally geeking out because it contains the evolution (and history) of the world. How many of these can you get made??? Quite educational, if I may say so~

  • Madame de Sade Bits and Pieces~

    I bet you’re jealous of those who got the chance to see Yu-chan on Madame de Sade last March. I know I am… Anyway~ I guess I will be adding the photos I find of it on this post xD

  • Come On! Bay Bay! – All I Like Is You (But You Don’t Know)

    I love happy Taiwanese music.

    This time around comes from Come On! Bay Bay! (來吧! 焙焙!) and this 2009 song, All I Like Is You (But You Don’t Know) (全世界我最喜歡你 (可是你都不知道)). Super cute love song!

  • Good Books Great Writers Series

    This is amazingly good-looking animation. I’m rather surprised I didn’t see it any other place than Weibo, unless there was and I wasn’t paying attention being away during the month of March and all. xD
