Hello again, Deb. I'm going to try to get through this one without a single square.
Here's a video that I uploaded to YouTube. You may have seen it before, but then again, maybe not. It's Computer Games as performed by The Kransky Sisters. They graced our tv screens here in Australia via a variety show called In Siberia Tonight over 2004 - 2005, and I've seen them live a few times as well.�Very funny and actually really good singers. I chose Computer Games to post here because at times it sounds very Bushy (almost Night-scented Stock)...
It's nearly time to pack this weekend up and get ready for a new working week.
Have fun!

Yay! I finally got a cursor in the box! Errr... although the damn smilies keep popping up at the beginning *points to beginning where a smilie taunts my feeble efforts*...
Anyway, I wanted to say "thank you" for be-Friending me, and sorry it took so long to get back to you; this whole Yuku thing is quite intimidating to become accustomed to! (inserts an imaginary cussing-Yuku-out smilie) The fact that I actually HAD a reply box to respond to you with but one that no cursor or key-tapping would make any entries in was daunting. BUT, I have overcome!
And, as if to prove it (or attempt to), I'm going to try to share a pair of Gustav Klimt-inspired short videos, considering your Klimt portraits above. But first, what a lovely page, and so befitting a Lady of your inestimable talent! I'm afraid that my page is still one step out of the box, so to speak LOL But this is really an inspiration, thanks for making it so lovely and full of Kate-ness :-D
I'm not sure (at this point) that these embeds will work, but here goes! These are the Opening and Ending themes of the Japanese anime "Elfen Lied", and heavily utilizes artwork from "The Kiss" and the other one whose title I forgot that you show above in your gallery. The first Gregorian-sounding song is entitled "Lillium" and its lyrics are translated from the Latin into English; it reminds me very much of my altarboy/choirboy days *waxes reminiscently*. I'll bet�that you�might guess why the lyrics are significant to me ;-) The second video, much more Japanese-pop-ish,�is stripped of the credits, although there really isn't anything to it besides that slow zoom. On the plus side, it's only 1:30 LOL (By the way, unless into *really* Stephen King horror-show stuff, don't go looking for other YouTube clips as the ones that get posted usually focus on the more gruesome scenes *shakes finger* Great story though.)
I'll leave it at this for now, as I feel like I'm really pushing my Yuku-luck LOL
Take good care,
~Rob

Ooh, Dave, you are so fab! Thankyou very much. Genie directed me to that one a couple of days ago. I actually discovered this version this morning. For me, Martha does herself and the song a little more justice here. I think there's at least one other film of these outstanding folk performing this song on You Tube, but haven't checked the third out yet.
It has been ridiculously hard to choose any favourite Thompson tracks, but I've heard several more today - each one equally gorgeous. Was an absolute privilege to listen to Blunderbuss. Thank you hugely for sharing it.
Skipping Girl Vinegar too! Love that stuff! You are indeed the man! Banana King, Speedo King. Music master. I'm finally swooning!
Love,
Deb. xx

You might be surprised to know that each time I see Roberta's portrait "dancing" together with your lovely artwork, my heart keeps missing a beat! There's so much passion and care in that drawing...we both love it! Thank you again for being such an extraordinary artist and a very special friend. Love. Antonello xxx

Hi Antonello. Yes, there is to be a major Klimt exhibition at Tate Liverpool from May 30 to August 31st. Not yet sure if I'll be able to get to it, but I'd like to. It is true the man enjoyed the female form. Rather too much some might say. As for his use of colour the paintings are jewel like in their intensity. Beautiful works!
I guess it does surprise me that you are still so smitten with my version of Roberta. But then many things you do continue to amaze and delight. Long may it be so! Thankyou for your kind words here!
Love,
Deb. xxx
