Holiday

Say, hey!
Hear the sound of the falling rain
Coming down like an Armageddon flame (Hey!)
The shame
The ones who died without a name
Hear the dogs howling out of key
To a hymn called "Faith and Misery" (Hey!)
And bleed, the company lost the war today
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday
Hear the drum pounding out of time
Another protester has crossed the line (Hey!)
To find, the money's on the other side
Can I get another Amen? (Amen!)
There's a flag wrapped around a score of men (Hey!)
A gag, a plastic bag on a monument
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday
(Hey!)
(Say, hey!)
(3,4)
"The representative from California has the floor"
Sieg Heil to the president Gasman
Bombs away is your punishment
Pulverize the Eiffel towers
Who criticize your government
Bang bang goes the broken glass and
Kill all the fags that don't agree
Trials by fire, setting fire
Is not a way that's meant for me
Just cause, just cause, because we're outlaws yeah!
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
This is our lives on holiday

It's wonderful, Craig, and part of what
by rosie is roxy is roshan on Mon Jul 27, 2009 08:24 AM PDTmakes it so outstanding is that the song is in 4/4 time and until until the change of clips gets very fast, most of the film is also shot so that they change on either the two or the four beat,l which synchronizes the film to the song and makes the whole thing rock 'n roll in this very sinister but dynamic way.
My favorite scene from Apocalypse Now is from the unexpurgated version, which was released later, Apocalypse Now Redux. It's part of what's called the Plantation Scene. He finds this French family living on this plantation in the jungle, they're still holding on from when it was French Indochina. They have this long dinner where the men talk politics and after that the daughter takes him to bed. I didn't realize til just now when I youtubed it that her name is Roxane. I wrote about that scene once and posted it here. Anyway this is the scene:

So stereotypical! :)
Well, speaking of music and "collateral damage", what do you think of what the YouTubers did with this famous scene from "Aplocalypse Now"?
Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter
//www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVor2Xm8qg0
Oh a storm is threat'ning my very life today.
If I don't get some shelter,
Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away.
War, children, it's just a shot away, it's just a shot away.
War, children, it's just a shot away, it's just a shot away.
See the fire sweepin' out very street today,
Burns like a red coal carpet, mad bull lost its way.
War, children, it's just a shot away, it's just a shot away.
War, children, it's just a shot away, it's just a shot away.
Rape! Murder! It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away.
Rape! Murder! It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away.
The floods is threat'ning my very life today.
Gimme, gimme shelter or I'm gonna fade away.
War, children, it's just a shot away, it's just a shot away.
It's just a shot away, it's just a shot away, it's just a shot away.
Love, sister, it's just a kiss away, it's just a kiss away.
It's just a kiss away,it's just a kiss away,
It's just a kiss away,it's just a kiss away.
Touche.

I do! And fish ponds with waterfalls, too! Luckily for me, this condo I live in has all that stuff but I don't have to do anything except enjoy it :)
I lived in Manhatten for a few years when I was a kid. But I am definately not a fan. Nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there and I'm not totally convinced it's a nice place to visit either! No offense intended :p
(waiting for the inevitable crack about backwards country f@&ks in California)
Well, anyway, you asked me on my 'what does my pink hijab

That's why no Anglos live in manhatten!
Weeeell...
by rosie is roxy is roshan on Sat Jul 25, 2009 05:42 PM PDTHow much does that suck?
Well, I wouldn't know. I've never gone out with an Anglo woman. And also I've never seen a lawn in my entire life.
I live in Manhattan. We don't believe in lawns.
;oP

Hmmm
by ex programmer craig on Sat Jul 25, 2009 05:26 PM PDTbut watch out for those Iranian women. The men all tell me they're very 'high maintenance.'
They only say that because they never met any Anglo women. Anglo women actually expect you to do stuff. Like helping with the housework and the cooking. And then you have to go mow the lawn, too. And fix everything, even if it's not totally broken yet. And then you have to take them out on "dates" and bring them flowers and gifts and pretend to be romantic and such things like that there. How much does that suck!?
Oh, that was cute...
by rosie is roxy is roshan on Sat Jul 25, 2009 11:32 AM PDTmazerat, lovey-ducky, vali irani nistam, o anyway...what on earth makes you think I'm looking for a man?
