    I definately would want to see such article, Sven! Another band between The Marked and Smashing Pumpkins? And Billy Corgan was member of that band? If that is true, and can be proven, and even includes recorded music that we might spread from our place here, maybe, possibly… It would rewrite history! It would be a big bang in the community! Damn! :shock:

    Start calling me names, but this song is going to be on that cd also. It was the first song in my early youth that actually made me cry. And I still love this song, a while back I bought the original 7\" of it… :D

    16 Horsepower, my second love after Smashing Pumpkins, will be on the cd too of course. So intense…

    This is the translated text of Swee – Dream Hynder.

    Carry me over the borders
    The borders of life
    Take me where it is smooth
    Take me where it is light
    Take me to a place where it is good and honest
    Dream horse, fly horse, fly
    Where you go
    I want to go also

    The ground I’m standing on is black and ugly
    And around me the day grabs me tight
    The wall around our house is high, so high
    I don’t see the daylight, so high
    I don’t hear people, so high
    I don’t see the world
    Where people
    Have fun, and laugh out loud
    Making up their villages, having festivals
    Clap their hands, tell jokes
    Drink, dance, talk about everything
    And about nothing

    But me, me with my angry heart
    I can not, I can not
    I can not do it

    Through the purple foam I feel death
    But life is still so big
    And fills my square with pure red
    Lights still bumps my ears
    All the time, all the time again
    My life, my good life
    So unreachable far away
    It burns like a fire in me

    Dream horse, fly horse, fly
    Carry me over the borders
    Where you go
    I want to go also

    Interesting pic for a funeral.[/quote:2irxc82g]
    Hehe, yeah, I know. But I have a long long history with that song, and especially with this version of Frijid Pink. First of all, it fucking ROCKS. The phrase "Oh mother, tell your children not to do what I have done" is giving me goose bumps. Same with that guitar sounds. Secondly, we did a rendition of House Of The Rising Sun with my band De Olijcke Nood (The Happy Need) on a Dutch text about the school we were attending at that time, when I was like 17-18 years old. Later, when I was a political activist in my twenties, I did another rendition of this song with a few others, on a political camp weekend, with a professional blues band that played there on Saturday night. So I was on stage again, doing this song again. So cool, so many memories… 8)

    That other song "This Is The Life I Live" is an early 1960’s song from a Dutch garagerock band called Q65. They are from Den Haag, the place I live now. It’s a song that has given me a lot of self-esteem over the years, that I owe nobody anything, welll, in a way, hope you get what I mean. That other band above "Hallo Venray" (did anyone listen already? What do you think? :wink: ) is also from Den Haag, by the way.

    Now that I’m getting into this subject anyway, there is another song that is on my list. It’s from a Frisian band called Reboelje (when 1 of the singers left a few years ago, they renamed themselves to Swee). There is an ugly version of their song "Dream Hynder" (Dream Horse) on YouTube, but the studio version is way better. Goose bumps also. Try it anyway, if you like. It’s about a guy that wants to follow his dream horse everywhere it goes, away from the earthly sorrows. But nobody will understand that I guess, as it’s sung in the Frisian language, hehehe!

    As I can probably only have 3 songs to be played on my funeral, I always had the idea of giving the people that attend my funeral a cd with my most favourite songs, like 10 or 15 of them. I’ll come back with other songs that are going to be on that cd (16 Horsepower, Earth And Fire (NOT to be mistaken with Earth, Wind And Fire! :lol: ) and others). I’m starting to like this topic!

    My grandmother, she was 102 years old when she died a few years ago, remembered the first cars, the first tv, the first telephone, the first airplanes… My father, who is 72 years old now, still remembers the first time it was allowed to live together without being married, the first computers, the first free sex & swinging after the conservative 1950’s, the first mobile phones, sms, car navigation systems…

    Every generation has its changes and \"big\" challenges I guess.

    I forgot to mention that these random thoughts were inspired by Mitchell Lee Hedberg, an American stand up comedian (1968 – 2005). The quote about the fake plants is from him, the rest I made up myself.

    Fake. Forgery. Counterfeit. Decoy. Imitation. Artificial. Fantasy. Dummy. Hoax. Replica. Fiction. False.

    The best example I can think of at the moment is… American Wrestling.

    No, these are estimates of course. The trimmer says 2 mm I remember now, so in a way I measure it like that.

    I’m going to trim it down evenly till it’s 1.5 mm or something. That’s what I always do when it is around 1.5 cm long. :wink:

    This is about Cool As Ice Cream and his online advertorial for a date with a lady. He doesn’t want it on another site obviously, but here on SPfreaks only. I can understand, as the hottest chicks and the finest ladies are here, on this forum. I remember Cool As Ice Cream had a girlfriend a while back, based in London, but that might have changed by now. Maybe he can update us on that?

    Hence the posting of his looking-for-a-date pic here. Comprende, madame blue? :wink:

    Now, you guys just HAVE to read this. We are being mentioned in a commercial advertisement for a job application as a website programmer. They use us as an example of a pretty good website that should be partly re-programmed for this advertiser… Awesome! :lol:

    Same here. There was a huge storm over Holland last night, with unbelievable thunders and monsoon rains from the utter depths of hell. I’m going to do my own haircut tonight, maybe tomorrow. At least 1 little problem solved. :)

    Wow Superlord… what a rant!

    Ever considered airco, or even a fan? I have a fan next to my bed, it’s cool and it chases the moths away too. It can be a bit noisy though. And you can cover the open window with mosquito netting, so most of those issues will be solved…

    \"how he got to be one of 25 people to receive what is considered the Holy Grail among Smashing Pumpkins fans: The Machina II (M2) vinyl.\" <= To me however, the Holy Grail is (the original) Mashed Potatoes set. Older, & more interesting songs… 8)
