who

Well there's nothing I truly desire
There's nothing that I really want
But the times I find myself in the fire
You choose between the right and the wrong
I wish I could control all my judgements
Understand every move
Take my mind and all of its voices
Tell me what should I do
Sometimes I feel like I’m stuck in your head
And I wonder
who d'you think you're talking to
One day I will get away
From these feelings getting stronger
who d'you think you're talking to
Sometimes I feel like it's not so fun
To see what's under
who d'you think you're talking to
Let me out let me out
I don’t think I can stand it any longer
who d'you think you're talking to
I remember being part of that era
I remember being so far from home
All the times I needed someone to hear me
'Cause I’ve never felt so much on my own
All the trouble that you have with your future
All the rules that make your life so secure
There are people who will give their opinions
But tell me what do they know
Sometimes I feel like I’m stuck in your head
And I wonder
who d'you think you're talking to
One day I will get away
From these feelings getting stronger
who d'you think you're talking to
Sometimes I feel like it's not so fun
To see what's under
who d'you think you're talking to
Let me out let me out
I don’t think I can stand it any longer
who d'you think you're talking to
Sometimes I feel like I’m stuck in your head
And I wonder
who d'you think you're talking to
One day I will get away
From these feelings getting stronger
who d'you think you're talking to
Sometimes I feel like it's not so fun
To see what's under
who d'you think you're talking to
Let me out let me out
I don’t think I can stand it any longer
who d'you think you're talking to
Who d'you think you're talking to
Who d'you think you're talking to
Who d'you think you're talking to

Eliza Cummings

I do not know what's happening to me lately, but I'm changing my mind about lots of different subjects. The biggest change has probably been my sudden love for this girl: still unknown to most this 16/17 or whatever-year-old girl is a young model (at Select) became famous mainly because of her -past- relationship with Ashley Stymest (reason why she appeared on Dazed&Confused cover and in many other shootings with him...never realized how much fashion biz could love a models couple). They split up a while ago now, but magazine editors still love to see them together so it's pretty easy to get into a hot picture of the former couple leafing through the pages of a fashion mag...a thing that really pisses me off as I'm shamefully in love with that baby boy!
Eliza didn't waste her time anyway and she has already found a new model boyfriend, model boyfriend I've worked with a couple of months ago reason why he's my friend on facebook (social network demonized by many lately but always useful when you want to nose around other people's lives!) and that's how I ran into this picture that for some inexplicable reasons struck me deep inside my heart. From the day I saw this I just started seeing her as a cute british teenager who's only trying too hard to impress a world that doesn't really care about her... and somehow I love her now. Still don't like her as a model at all, but at least I've to say that I envy the easiness she shows moving from a gorgeous boyfriend to another!;P

Gaspard Ulliel for Dazed&Confused

I couldn't believe my eyes when last week I saw THIS.
'cause not only Dazed is one of my favourite magazine and I'm always happy and satisfied when a new cover is reveiled,but I'm even a huge fan of Gaspard Ulliel!
He's simply gorgeous, so extremely french if you get it,and "Paris, Je T'Aime" is one of the movies I've liked the most in the past ten years.
Paris is burning. Oh yeah!

pure perfection

Leave the Bourbon on the shelf

Shakin' like the Devil when she lets me go
Got a new place and how it's so much better.
Falling over myself, the televisions on,
I turn it off and smile.
Oh, Jennifer, you know I always tried.
Before you say goodbye
Leave the bourbon on the shelf.
And I'll drink it by myself.
And I love you endlessly, darling don't you see
I'm not satisfied until I hold you tight.
Give me one more chance tonight
And I swear I'll make it right.
But you ain't got time for this
And that wreckin' bell is ringin'
And I'm not satisfied until I hold you
Jennifer, tell me where I stand
And who's that other boy holdin' your hand?
Oh, Jennifer, you know I've always tried.
Before you say goodbye
Leave the bourbon on the shelf.
And I'll drink it by myself.
And I never liked your hair
Or those people that you lie with
And I'm not satisfied until I hold you tight
And I love you endlessly, darling don't you see
I can't be satisfied until I hold you tight.
Leave the bourbon on the shelf.
And I'll drink it by myself.
And I love you endlessly,
Darling don't you see I'm not satisfied

song of the day

Nobody ever had a dream round here
But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me
Nobody ever pulls the seams round here
But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me
I've got this energy beneath my feet
Like something underground's gonna come up and carry me
I've got this sentimental heart that beats
But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me now
Why do you waste my time?
Is the answer to the question on your mind
And I'm sick of all my judges
So scared of what they'll find
But I know that I can make it
As long as somebody takes me home every now and then
Well have you ever seen the lights?
Have you ever seen the lights?
I took a shuttle on a shockwave ride
Where people on the pen pull the trigger for accolades
I took a bullet and I looked inside
Running through my veins an American masquerade
I still remember grandma Dixie's wake
I've never really known anybody to die before
Red, white and blue upon a birthday cake
My brother, he was born on the fourth of the July and that's all
Why do you waste my time?
Is the answer to the question on your mind
And I'm sick of all my judges
They're so scared of letting me shine
But I know that I can make it
As long as somebody takes me home
Every now and then
Every now and then
You know I see London, I see Sam's Town
Holds my hand and lets my hair down
Rolls that world right off my shoulder
I see London, I see Sam's Town now

Romeo & Juliet

A lovestruck Romeo sings a streets's serenade
Laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made
He finds a convenient streetlight steps out of the shade
Says something like you and me babe how about it?
Juliet says hey it's Romeo you nearly gimme a heart attack
He's underneath the window she's singing hey la my boyfriend's back
You shouldn't come around here singing up at people like that
Anyway what you gonna do about it?
Juliet the dice were loaded from the start
And I bet and you exploded in my heart
And I forget, I forget the movie song
When you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
Come up on different streets they both were streets of shame
Both dirty both mean, yes and the dream was just the same
And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real
How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?
You can fall for chains of silver you can fall for chains of gold
You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold You promised me everything you promised me think and thin yeah
Now you just says oh Romeo yeah you know
I used to have a scene with him
Juliet when we made love you used to cry
I said I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die
There's a place for us you know the movie song
When you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
I can't do the talk like they talk on the tv
And I can't do a love song like the way it's meant to be
I can't do everything but I'd do anything for you
I can't do anything except be in love with you
And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be
All I do is keep the beat and the bad company
All I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme
Juliet I'd do the stars with you any time
Juliet when we made love you used to cry
I said I love you like the stars above
I'll love you till I die
There's a place for us you know the movie song
When you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
A lovestruck Romeo sings a streets's serenade
Laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made
He finds a convenient streetlight steps out of the shade
Says something like you and me babe how about it?

new shoes?!

Here they are,my new babies!!!!went to the NB's sample sale on saturday and I didn't believe my eyes when at the very bottom of a box I found THEM,the sneakers I've always dreamt of! ...and today I've just got back with a friend that had loved them so much and wanted to buy something similar and, always at the bottom of the already mentioned box, I left my heart once again: I haven't even had the chance to express in words my new object of desire that my friend (always nice eh) turned to me and said : "Jules,I hope you're kidding me!they're so...ehr...not your style at all!" and she's right,I know she is. To be honest I've never been used to wear sneakers,at least not before my - ahr - early 20s,but what can I do if I just cannot stop me thinking about 'em?! I'm definitely going to buy tomorrow,just hope to be able to find 'em again!

Les enfants qui s'aiment...

Les enfants qui s'aiment s'embrassent debout
Contre les portes de la nuit
Et les passants qui passent les désignent du doigt
Mais les enfants qui s'aiment
Ne sont là pour personne
Et c'est seulement leur ombre
Qui tremble dans la nuit
Excitant la rage des passants
Leur rage, leur mépris, leurs rires et leur envie
Les enfants qui s'aiment ne sont là pour personne
Ils sont ailleurs bien plus loin que la nuit
Bien plus haut que le jour
Dans l'éblouissante clarté de leur premier amour.
Jacques Prévert
