Some time ago I used to travel to college 2 hours each way - and since class started at 8, I had to take a very early train. The way from home to the train station took me through a street with broad pavement, but almost no pedestrians, so at roughly 6 in the morning there was no one except of me. At each side of the road there were tall buildings, hotels, office towers with fancy glass surfaces....

I loved to walk past there in winter mornings when it was still dark, the neon lights were on and a few cars were passing. The most beautiful moments were when it was rainy, because then the mirroring surfaces distorted the neon lights even more. I always felt like the main character in one of those 80s movies, when he or she is walking through night city streets in cities that never sleep, and he or she is reflecting on loneliness or some important thing that happened in the scene before.

The ideal song for those moments is 郭富城s "沒有你的愛" to me. Somehow with this song the magic of the moment always works, and even when I'm elsewhere (I moved closer to college now) I can recapture the beauty of those moments when I close my eyes and listen to the song...]]> http://www.last.fm/user/StridingCloud/journal/2008/05/07/gb3nh_karpatenhund_-_zusammen_verschwinden Wed, 7 May 2008 18:59:42 +0000 http://www.last.fm/user/StridingCloud/journal/2008/05/07/gb3nh_karpatenhund_-_zusammen_verschwinden 1)
Diese Schuhe stehen dir gut und ich mag deine Augen.
Es kostete viel Mut, das kannst du gerne glauben,
dich hier anzusprechen, mir Vorwände auszudenken,
also willst du mit mir reden und willst du etwas trinken?
Ich mag wie du dein Glas hältst und was du mir erzählst.
Ich mag, wie du dich anziehst, mich in deinen Bann ziehst.
Ich mag die Art wie du denkst, die Zeit, die du mir schenkst
Ich möchte mehr für dich sein, möchte jemand für dich sein.

Refr.)
Lass uns zusammen verschwinden von hier
Und irgendetwas Geheimnisvolles tun.
Lass uns einfach sehen, was passiert
wenn wir zusammen von hier abhauen;
wir haben gewartet und geredet und jetzt ist es soweit,
lass uns zusammen verschwinden und lass uns sehen wie weit
wir kommen.

2)
Ich will wissen, ob du es wirklich ehrlich mit mir meinst
oder ob du wirklich nur so ehrlich scheinst;
ich möchte dir vertrauen können ohne dass du weißt,
dass ich ein Messer bei mir trage in meinem Ärmel jederzeit.
Ich will, dass du mich verlässt, bevor du mich verletzt
und dass du mich vermisst bevor du mich vergisst.
Wenn das für dich so in Ordnung ist, gebe ich dir mein Wort hiermit,
dass ich mehr für dich bin, alles für dich bin.

Refr.)
Lass uns zusammen verschwinden von hier...

I just started scrobbling recently, so this chart is probably supposed to change ;) Maybe I'll update it later.

Now answer the questions according to the numbers:

What was the first song you ever heard by 6?
- Electric Cucumber

What is your favorite album by 2?
- Roentgen

What is a good memory you have involving 2?
- First time I got to listen to the 666-album was on the road with my father driving. He did a very risky passing maneuver - you couldn't see ANYTHING behind that truck! And I felt like my heart stopped for a second. In that very second, the first guitar riff of a new song began, and when I looked at the cd I noticed it was Prayer... Well, maybe this doesn't sound that much as a good memory, but I somehow really treasure that memory. Don't ask why, I don't know.

Is there a song by 8 that makes you sad?
- No, not really. But then again, I only got to know them recently, don't know about the lyrics yet.

What is your favorite album of 5?
- True

What is your favorite lyric that 3 has sung?
