Music and books

Was reading Salman Rushdie's "The satanic verses" over the weekend. I haven't finished it yet, but I think I have another author's name to put in my list of great writers.

I'm having a weird music craving. I'm listening to Thalia's en extasis album. Yes, Marimar - Thalia. And what makes this even weirder, I can sing her songs! I've memorized it - in Spanish! Currently, I'm singing "Quiero hacerte el amor". I have no bloody frigging clue what it is, but me likey! I think it means "I want your love" or something.

Now here's the other weird part. I'm also listening to "Norma" by Bellini as sung by Maria Callas. I love it!!! I can soo feel it even though I have no idea what they're singing about.

I guess this is why music is truly the universal language. You can relate tot he song even if you have no idea what it means. The feelings and the poignant emotions are expressed even if the language is different.

I say, go and I-mesh or torrent these albums. You'll love it. Promise.
