Music - "Sunny Side Up" by Paolo Nutini
As more wins (I'm talking about my poll, do not misunderstand) Today I talk about music. Paolo Nutini's new album, Sunny Side Up.
I consider it a masterpiece.
But I stepped back. Giovanni Paolo Nutini is a singer-songwriter born in Scotland, at Paisley on January 9, 1987. Needless to say that is 50% Italian, may be more interesting that the father is in Tuscany, Barga (Lucca).
Curious to know how he began his career. In 2003 his countryman David Sneddon won the first series of Fame Academy BBC (the British version of Friends of Maria de Filippi). A Paisley is organized a show to celebrate his return to the city from the BBC studios, but Sneddon, traveling from London, is long overdue. To appease the public impatient by the delay, a DJ on a local radio station organized a quiz on stage, he sees a chance to perform as a reward. Nutini performs and wins, making note from Ken Nelson, a producer (including Coldplay) who offers him a partnership kicking off his career. At 17 he moved to London where he began performing in clubs in the city.
The breakthrough then came the Internet, where a couple of his songs in the network are among the most downloaded increasing their popularity through word of mouth. Nutini is found to open concerts for artists where Amy Winehouse and KT Tunstall. So
, July 17, 2006 he released his first album, "These Streets" (Atlantic Records). More than 1 million and 800 thousand copies sold worldwide and gold in Italy: a great success, in fact. For myself, I definitely appreciated, "New Shoes", the last single released, which made him popular even in the States.
Without this premise, arrival at the new album came out, to my great delight, 29 May 2009, always with label Atlantic Records. Now in demand as a gift for my birthday:) The single
Candy preceded him in 11 days. Just this song and its video, which you can see below, I was particularly impressed and persuaded to buy (or make me buy) the album blind.
The video, shot in Havana, is actually a Mexican wedding, with Paul, who maintains the couple and their guests. Warm, wonderful smiles, and the colors look a bit scruffy, self-confident and lightweight Nutini (including the hat, one of his passions), made me think of a boy's artistic growth. Or rather, such an approach to further my musical tastes.
Not to forget the album, however, I have also focused on other songs.
The album was a real surprise in the positive. And confirmed that the boy has grown artistically even more than one might expect for a guy who in 2009 was still only 22 years.
As I said, a masterpiece. "10/10" rhythm on the upbeat, engaging, even a little reggae, it is virtually impossible not to move, music and vocals that seem to come from Jamaica.
"Coming Up Easy": soul and a rabbit I that in the video is an excellent companion to booze. "Growing up beside you": a more intimate song, a mix of country, folk and soul. Of "Candy" I have already spoken, then switch to track # 5, "Tricks of the trade": it reminds a little bit rock South of the U.S., but that old-fashioned, to listen in the dark. "Pencil full of lead" means all know a little bit, is the song of the spot with Fiorello, but did not do it justice; ragtime (a little Fox Trot, a little Two Step), engaging, makes you smile and dance.
"No Other Way" returns to the soul, a voice strong and mature. "High Hopes": harmonica, flute and many other contaminants, it seems there is a tribe to play around with Paul. "Chamber music": music that recalls the Scottish Highlands and voice, with an introduction to guitar. "Simple Things" seem to hear another great artist I very much appreciated (and apparently also by him, having regard to the contamination of various kinds), Johnny Cash, but then still surprises and moves to a folk pushed. "Worried Man" still clearly influenced by Johnny Cash, with some even mentioned in the text; atmosphere a little darker, but it's worth. "Keep rolling" but here the songs reminds of old times, almost reminds me of Elvis unless provoked.
I strongly advise you to listen to this CD so come and catapulted into a universe in itself, which is difficult then you'll want to leave. Rest assured, though, that will leave you with lightness and serenity.

Sw To Design Apartment
the new year ...
Although as early as January, work will follow in pruning, tying and various accommodations, the real awakening of the vineyard is beginning in those days.
The buds are swollen and the first buds begin to sprout, the trees are in bloom and you begin to smell after a long-awaited spring and autumn as a winter rain for many years did not happen. We hope
great year!

Can I Get A Brazilian Wax With A Yeast Infection
... Travel - Pienza
The "ideal city" of the Italian Renaissance. Or at least that is the definition Pope Pius II, who gave the best architect of his day, Rossellino, the task of design and construction.
As you saw, I'm talking to Pienza, a lovely little town placed in a landscape as beautiful Val d'Orcia.
Even getting there is poetry. Valleys of various colors (of course also depends on the season), that are lost to us. Sinuous curves that inexorably draw the attention of those who love certain landscapes. In early spring you will be catapulted into a reality that will spoil the view. In summer, enjoy the Sienese countryside and its typical colors, as well as the grateful breeze that characterizes the narrow streets of Pienza. In autumn, a riot of colors.
For art lovers, this is the pearl of Val d'Orcia to see the Duomo (cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta), the Church of San Francesco and the Palazzo Piccolomini, next to the Duomo.
Right between the latter two buildings you can admire a beautiful view of what surrounds us Pienza, framed by an arch.
I, no use denying it, I go even to eat a good sandwich with slices of pecorino cheese and Cinta Senese. And it's almost impossible not to, because you will be tempted by the shops of the historic center, emit odors that are also pleased the palate.
The sandwich eat it maybe on the trail of lovers (If I remember correctly), where you can admire a beautiful view, away from roads and in peace. Hence, among other things, you might also enjoy the Monte Amiata in the background.
sit around on the subject, Pienza is also famous for the name of some of its streets. The romantics will be pleased, because the two most famous are the Via del Bacio (where you can admire the couples who obviously lemon) and the Way of Love (along which more than anything else we embrace). In addition, for the uninitiated, here there was also filmed "The English Patient", one of the most awarded film in history (including Oscar 9).
Ideal for a day trip, even if accompanied by the visit of Montalcino and San Quirico d'Orcia really 5-10 minutes.

Really Dry Tip Of Tongue When Sleeping
... Film - "Invictus"
Directed by Clint Eastwood, Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon.
I want to start this new adventure about this film. Magnificent.
If my intent is to give you moments of serenity, I need to mention the last film directed by Clint Eastwood played by two actors who have undoubtedly fallen into their characters perfectly.
Nelson Mandela had told him that he wanted Morgan Freeman as Nelson Mandela on the big screen. And even in this we have taken. Freeman
forward to how it moves and the look, the wisdom, goodness, strength and integrity that a man like Mandela has shown and shows to this day.
For Damon, who knows me knows how much I appreciate almost all its interpretations. Again I would not know who could play better Francois Pienaar, captain of the South African rugby. Athleticism, charisma, experience, mental agility and integrity. The main features of his character.
There are several aspects of the film that I was impressed.
First, the atmosphere. Initial hostility from the evidence (from both sides, blacks and whites) to the final party, multi-ethnic, full of color, music, smiles, families and children in a panoramic frame wonderful as that of South Africa, finally united nation for the occasion.
Another aspect that I can not overlook is, of course, music. Music, movies like that of those in Africa generally, you come in and carry you into a vortex of freedom, colors, letting you breathe that air is often only genuine and joyful smiles of children are able to pass. The songs of the movie are dancing together to the thousands of spectators in the stadium and at the same time open your heart to our deepest intimate.
One of the things I appreciated most, however, is the poem whose title gives its name to the film.
"Invictus" by William Ernest Henley, English poet of the late '800.
Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbow’d. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shad...e, And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll, I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul.
La cui traduzione è: Dal profondo della notte che mi avvolge, Buia come il pozzo più profondo che va da un polo all'altro, Ringrazio qualunque dio esista Per l'indomabile anima mia. Nella feroce morsa circumstances I have not winced nor cried aloud anxiety. Under the blows of the ax of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll. I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul.
E 'poetry where the Mandela of the film gives the ability to have given him the strength to go forward in the decades locked up in jail, in a tiny cell.
A poem that I personally did not know, but that struck me immediately because of the strength, dignity and integrity, yet again, that sent me.
Watch it and let me know if I have bad advice or if I failed (accidentally) other things worth noting. I also did want to go back to race;)

Slides On Interjection
... the show must begin, firstly.
Sigh. Oooh, I can finally say "I'm writing a blog".
The other, in return ask, yes, good, but on what? What subjects? ".
And the answer is "Come and see it as, I have not got a clue." :)
I think a book or write a letter without having the slightest idea of \u200b\u200bwhat will be the beginning of what will close your speech and everything that lies in between, well, it's the best way to create something really interesting. Above all really close. I tell you why: improvisation, mental and subconscious connections. Nothing is calculated.
A flow apparently disconnected, but unique. Like the rest of what this world is made.
Even when we talk about how it works.
And even love. The greatest love stories I know are born of random events, errors, risks taken by instinctively, from acting by an inner strength which we like to open the doors to the outside.
The greatest inventions. Often the 'inventor' had no idea of \u200b\u200bthe positive consequences of the error that was making. An apple falling from a tree has uncovered the strongest force among all the known forces. I could go on for hours.
Well, I certainly do not have the presumption to change the world. Not even I would, actually.
but I'd like to help even one person to live peacefully his time, his 15 seconds of serenity. At least. :)
With the help of a book, a song of few words. Some image. Everything is potentially half, anything can help to unleash a force that is already, and just inside each of us.
And it makes us live better.
I started now and I'm already happy. I have already helped one person feel better.
And when I first started writing these lines ... I did not know what I wrote.
