🎂

 Today I´m 55 years old. I got 3 txt-messages; one from my brother, another one from my mother and one from my childhood friend. And 1 phonecall from my father. Yesterday I got very generous b-day present from my Dear blog Friend Susu Petal. X-tra Special thank to her! I promised I wouldn´t put my ugly mug in this blog of mine. But I´ll put a profile shot here instead. So not a mug per se.

Hevi Metalli Ukkonen

 Kun tämä rokkikukko kiekasee biisin käyntiin niin mimmeiltä tippuu tangat/putoo pikkarit jalasta. Juu Tuubissa kehutaan maasta taivaaseen, joku jopa sanoi odottaneensa liki 60v. että tästä parempi versio tehtäisiin. Hän näkee että tässä se on. Aika paljon komppaavat myös muut kuulijat. Puristit voivat repiä pelihousunsa, se heille sallittakoon. Hanat saa kaakottaa. 

Hinder - Born to be Wild               Saturday Classic

Get your motor runnin'
Head out on the highway
Lookin' for adventure
And whatever comes our way

Yeah, darlin', go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once and
Explode into space

I like smoke and lightnin'
Heavy metal thunder
Racin' with the wind
And the feelin' that I'm under

Yeah, darlin', go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once and
Explode into space

Like a true nature's child
We were born, born to be wild
We can climb so high
I never wanna die

Born to be wild
Born to be wild

Get your motor runnin'
Head out on the highway
We're lookin' for adventure
And whatever comes our way

Yeah, darlin' go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once and
Explode into space

Like a true nature's child
We were born, born to be wild
We can climb so high
I never wanna die

Born to be wild
Born to be wild

The Sopranos

Mainitun tv-sarjan avausraita kyseessä. Huippusarja ja huippubiisi siihen. HBO maksoi tekijöille hulppeat 500$ käyttöoikeudesta. Kuulostaa vahvasti siltä että valkoinen mies - jälleen kerran - on kussut mustaa miestä silmään oikein huolella. Rojalteja biisi on kerännyt 400 000$ vuoteen 2017 mennessä. Mahtava mustan musiikin kuuntelukokemus klikkauksen päässä. Enjoy!

Saturday Classic  Alabama 3 - Woke Up This Morning

Harmikseni en löytänyt lyriikoita alkulätinöihin, ne kestää minsa 44 sekkaa. Ne kertoo siitä kun raahautuu kotia kohti kolmen ryyppypäivän jälkeen leuka rinnalla. Tykkään siitä vähintään yhtä paljon kuin biisistä noin yleensä. Ja tarttumapintaa on kosolti, tuli joskus hörpättyä aika houkeesti. MP3-soitin ja napit korvilla suhailin fillarilla samoissa oloissa joskus muinoin. Oi aikoja, oi tapoja.

You woke up this morning
Got yourself a gun
Mama always said you'd be
The Chosen One

She said: You're one in a million
You've got to burn to shine
But you were born under a bad sign
With a blue moon in your eyes

You woke up this morning
All the love has gone
Your Papa never told you
About right and wrong

But you're looking good, baby
I believe you're feeling fine (shame about it)
Born under a bad sign
With a blue moon in your eyes

You woke up this morning
The world turned upside down
Thing's ain't been the same
Since the Blues walked into town

But you're one in a million
You've got that shotgun shine
Born under a bad sign
With a blue moon in your eyes

When you woke up this morning everything you had was
gone. By half past ten your head was going ding-dong
Ringing like a bell from your head down to your toes
like a voice telling you there was something you should
know. Last night you were flying but today you're so low
ain't it times like these that make you wonder if
you'll ever know the meaning of things as they appear to
the others; wives, mothers, fathers, sisters and
brothers. Don't you wish you didn't function, wish you
didn't think beyond the next paycheck and the next little
drink' Well you do so make up your mind to go on, 'cos
when you woke up this morning everything you had was gone

When ya woke up this mornin'
Woke up this mornin'
Ya, woke up this mornin'
Woke up this mornin', you wanna be
You wanna be the chosen one
(Yeah, you know what you're talkin' about)
You just can't help yourself, yeah
Woke up this mornin'
When ya, woke up this mornin'
(Woke up this mornin')
(Woke up this mornin')
Woke up this mornin' and
(My dreams gone bad)
Got yourself a gun (gotta hold, a-wind yourself up)
A-got yourself a gun
Got yourself a gun
Got yourself a gun
Got yourself a gun
Got yourself a gun...

Out with the Old

In with the New. There used to be 2 storey "high" Super Market in here. Now they´re building new apartment building 10 to 13 stores high. Very tall cranes there, it´s must to be able to build the new ones. Demolition was quick, building is more time consuming I guess. Around this area there´s few old low rises to be demolised yet still. New High rises will replace them. Building ground is scaces so only way is up.

Free Riders

 One can ride for free in buses with walking frames or with baby carriages. Don´t know if it´s all towns/cities but in Lahti, Finland it´s so. I think it´s nice. How´s it in your heck of hoods?

Them Muslims are neighbours of mine. We live in same staircase. Always happy to greet each other with smile. She looks very young for a mother. Maybe she´s elder sibling of them two little fellas. I believe there´s elder couple living in the same appartment so..

Kesäpojat

Taas se aika vuodesta ja syksy hiipii taas sieluunkin. Toivottavasti ei kuitenkaan kovin kovin. Vuonna Miekka ja Kilpi erosin pitkäaikaisesta tyttöystävästä hänen aloitteesta. Hän etsi netin syövereistä aina jonkun miehen ja hengaili aikansa kunnes tuli tulokseen että haluaakin olla kanssani. Ja sitten taas uusi kierros jne. jne. Lopulta hän löysi kiiperin (keeper eng.) enkä ole häntä enää nähnyt sen jälkeen. Hän muutti toiseen kaupunkiin mikä on ihan hyvä.

Se oli raskasta aikaa henkisesti ja sainkin samoihin aikoihin bipolaaridiagnoosin. Siksi tämän biisin sanoitukset iskee edelleen kovaa. Alkuperäinen versio tässä, suosittelen kuitenkin Atarispoikien versiota. Siinä on enemmän särmää ja angstia. The Ataris - The Boys of Summer 

Saturday Classic

Nobody on the road
Nobody on the beach
I feel it in the air -
The summer's out of reach
Empty lake, empty streets
The sun goes down alone
I'm drivin' by your house
Though I know you're not home

But I can see you -
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
You got your hair combed back
And your sunglasses on, baby
And I can tell you
My love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone

I never will forget those nights
I wonder if it was a dream
Remember how you made me crazy?
Remember how I made you scream
Now I don't understand what happened to our love
But babe I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna show you what I'm made of

I can see you -
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
I see you walkin' real slow
And you're smilin' at everyone
I can tell you
My love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone

Out on the road today
I saw a The Black Flag sticker on a Cadillac
A little voice inside my head said
"Don't look back, you can never look back"
I thought I knew what love was -
What did I know?
Those days are gone forever;
I should just let 'em go, but

I can see you -
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
You got the top pulled down
And the radio on, baby
And I can tell you
My love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone

I can see you -
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
You got that hair slicked back
And those Wayfarers on, baby
I can tell you
My love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone

Tiirismaa´s TV- and Radio-Tower

 It´s on a hill 223m (731f) from Sea Level. The Mast is 327m (777f) tall. It´s taller structure in Finland. All though there´s one as high as this but still. Read all about it in here (it´s in Finnish but tranlation program ahoy).

I went hiking on the nearby Swamp to get this photo. Sun was shining and I sweated like a pig. My hiking buddy and I had small picnic there and enjoyed the Mother Nature. Autumn colors are not at it´s peak, not just yet but there was some. Clounds was hanging low but there was no too much of those. If you look close enough you can see all the wires that´s holding it up.                  Skywatch Friday

Front- and Back-end

Of buses of my beloved hometown Lahti, Finland. I noticed the driver on left fidddling his phone. It´s ok cause the bus was not moving. Once I was on a bus and driver fiddled his phone while driving. Didn´t feel too safe at the time. Other thing I noticed; all those nice reflections. Another mundane everyday life snap while waiting on my bus. Nothing more, nothing less.                        Weekend Street/Reflactions
