Eh Morena
Este e um sonho estranho
Passando por la
Vem me encontrar
Pela janela aberta
Beijo luar
Eh Morena
Este e um sonho estranho
Passando por la
Vem me encontrar
Pela janela aberta
Beijo luar
Eh Morena

Yes. What we need is one big colossal, bureaucratic organization, The State, to supplant the corporations, because all people who work for corporations are evil, and all State, Federal, and Local government employees are good. In fact, we should combine the best elements of the mom and pop corner grocery (usually run by the pop, i.e. a dominant husky male, father figure type) and make this pop make all the key decisions about the economy, and how we live our lives, settle our differences, express ourselves. That would fix everything. One vote is all it takes (it's BTW, the last vote). They tried this I think in, uh, Germany I think about 80 years ago. Worked out pretty good. |

I listened to it after I did a 27.3 mile fast-pack on the kesugi ridge trail in Denali S.P. in 2007, during which I was struck by lightning at mile 18, and then had to bike back another 17 miles to my car. When I got back to my car and tended to my injuries and started driving home to Fairbanks, where I lived then...I played Cosmic Game over and over, reflecting on the fact that I was still alive. All their music makes me feel good! Very cool experience. I, too, link music to events in my life. After nearly57 years, I have lots of musical stories! |

Great to know that more modern bands are using Brazilian influences... Our music is so rich. The best, in my opinion. Oi! Theivery Corporation has had so many wonderful vocalists throughout their various releases. Singers from Brasil, Cape Verde, France, Canada, the Caribbean, and more. It is fantastic to listen to one of their CDs and to hear so many languages represented. :) |
| ElizabethBoody (Washington, DC) | Posted: Jul 28, 2005 - 12:37 Going to their first of 3 shows at the 9:30 Club in DC tonight! Can't Wait! Also, you can read a review of their album, The Cosmic Game, that I wrote on my website here: http://musiccapitol.blogspot.com/2005/06/thievery-corporation-cosmic-game.html Look for my review of the show at http://musiccapitol.blogspot.com/2005/07/review-thievery-corporation-930-club.html |
