    It's 18:00 here, the evening is young - but promising.

    If you listen to music, to get you in a party or socializing mood, before going out on NYE, please share it here. I am currently house-bound, but I would love to hear the festivities, as they kick off! [I live near one of the favourite NYE fireworks locales in my city - a peaky park - so I'm fated to hear the noise later on. So, some music first, please! ]

    Here's my song for tonight: Viva la Vida by Coldplay (in some way the lyrics have a link to my previous life as a JW, but I like it mostly because of the melody).

    Enjoy and Happy New Year Valkyrie!

    Great kick-off, Bruja! I love that song; much better hearing the orig. artists' performance (my intro to the song was in choir, bleaaagh!).

    Gelukkig Nieuwjaar / Happy New Year to you, too!

    Bruja ... lovely music ........I remember preaching out

    in the 'ministry' and feeling like we almost "ruled the world",

    imagine the arrogance! hahaha so stupid! Soooo programmed!

    Clarity - indeed! "Heavenly hope" or "earthly hope," what dupes we were!

    Now, we know it is sufficient to be masters of our own domain, ... or at least of our own thoughts, right!

    Happy New Year, Clarity!

    Hi Kate,

    We're definitely cruising in the Wayback Music Machine this morning! B52s, Toto, ... are Duran Duran up next?

    I've always thought "Africa" was a dreamy sounding song. I could practically see mist rising in the thick growth of an awakening forest. [In my mind, the visuals of "Avatar" (the film) would be a great fantasy pairing with the song.] Can you see it, too? Thanks for sharing!
