Love footprints :)

Love your musical travelog. Sounds like you had some amazing times. I love international music and really dug the Giusy Ferreri songs you posted.

I’m a big fan of Cheb i Sabbah. He does international music, some Middle East, Indian, and African. Here are some links if you are interested in checking him out:

I loved those!

I think I’m in a Bhangra/ Bollywood mood today. I might have to pull out Devdas ( the only true bollywood movie I own to get it out of my system). I love the music from North Africa as well.

Giusy is pretty amazing. I decided to post something different than Opera though one of the places I stayed in for a while had its own Opera house for a town of 3000 and was within 45 minutes of the birthplace of Rossinni.

Oooh, Bhangra/Bollywood mood sounds awesome! Years ago on a fitness channel that I used to watch there was a Bhangra dance workout. It was so much fun.

I dig a lot of opera but just haven’t really heard a whole lot. Would love some links if you have any recommendations. Sometime in the 90s I was a fan of Die Form (post-industrial, French group). The woman’s vocals got me into the opera genre even though that music was not opera music. Here is Die Form if you would like to check them out but it is very gothy and older.

I remember that! I have to think about some recommend at jobs, like you I haven’t heard that many pieces. Most of the operas I’ve seen have been Mozart’s and I once had the scores for Carmen and La Traviata.

Loved that one. Those are words to start your day everyday.

I will listen to this forever…

Whoa, that looks like so much fun!

Love me some bollywood dance, so much fun!!

So fun!! :)

Bollywood is totally my fave, TTF!!!!

It is fun! I was in Jaipur during wedding season. I went to 4 that I was formally invited to. One was my friends God brothers wedding so we stayed with the grooms party for a week, but we were some times pulled into the streets to join the processional of some grooms party on the way to his wedding. Lots of fun.

More bollywood because this is what I’m in the mood for. The music here is a bit more traditional because its set in the turn if the 20 the century
Dola Re Dola song – Devdas: http://youtu.be/mmV_kWtkbPI
Silsila Ye Chaahat Ka – Full Song – Devdas: http://youtu.be/8qhkBTGE_Wo

This is one of my fave Bollywood songs, from one of my fave Bollywood movies, Tees Maar Khan (which everyone else seems to hate). LOL

It’s pretty spicy!!!

Have you seen Bride and Prejudice?

Yeah, Marz, like 1000 times LOL. Love it!

I own it. So yes many times. I enjoy it, the director loves poking fun at her two heritages.

We make people watch it when they come over and they always love it.

Oooooh the bus driver one!!!! I love the bus driver one!!!!

Fun! I loved the first one too and watching the flux of his emotions.

STACY, NOW I WANT BOTH!!!!!!!!

MAJOR CUTENESS FACTOR!!!!

Mwhaaha, my work is done. Chinchillas are great pets. My chinchilla is such a sweetheart.

Eventually, I will have a capybara, goat, pig, pitbull, and weimaraner herd. Pretty sure my neighbors will hate me.

Lol, no they want, cause I’ll move right next to ya :-)

Excellent, then we could have a capybara pool party. https://www.google.com/search?q=cute+chinchilla&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=FTjmU4vhGcKOyATfy4DwDg&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ&biw=1440&bih=785#q=capybara+pool+party&tbm=isch
