Having been in a few bands from about age 12 to well into my 20s, there were times (which I believe is what drives good musicians) when we were all in "complete" sync with each other, our instruments and the audience. It was like your muscles were making the music and you were outside listening. The resulting euphoria is probably similar to other "techniques" that causes this mental detachment. For me at least, I would definitely describe it as JOY. And it appears it can works both ways. i.e. the musician making the music or audience listening to the music.

Yes, I know the feeling from playing the piano as a kid. And Foster specifically mentions that it is like she is glued to the track. He loosely compares working with Jackie to working with Whitney Houston [he helped to make Houston's career] in an eleven-year-old's body. She operates at an adult level. Beyond that, she feels the music deeply. She will only do songs that move her emotionally. When I was 11, I was moved emotionally by Puff the Magic Dragon, not Nessun Dorma. :smile:

Her favorite? Lovers.

I asked her why she often giggles at the end of a song. With a bit of a perplexed expression, she looked down and thought about it for a moment, and finally said, "I don't know. I just get this sense of elation".

Me too, thought I.

Heh, don't feel too badly, Borek. She'll be 12 in about a week. :biggrin:

Of course what they aren't saying is that the reason immigrants use so much more energy when they move here is that WE use so much more energy per capita then THEY do in their own countries. When THEY get here, THEY become US.

Wow, I can't even believe that video is serious. We should extradite these people to stop global warming, you know, because their carbon footprint will be less off U.S. soil.

Yes, but they do specify that stopping immigration won't actually stop global warming. :smile: What a bunch of clowns! The worst thing that many people will buy into this, hook, line, and sinker - immigrants are causing global warming!

For anyone interested, I think this is suprisingly well done. Not meant to be a prediction of events to come, this semi-animated fictional account of a woman's life takes us through an admittedly worst-case future of catastrophic global climate change, through the year 2100.

Again, this is merely a fictional account of one possible future. It is not being sold as fact.

Below is part one of nine.

For those who may miss my absence over the next few weeks, do not despair.

I have requested that Evo post the most awesome of commercials that she has recently seen.

The above video is a full, and complete, compilation of all of my posts to PF and facebook over the last week.

Thank you Evo, and Direct TV. I can now take a nap. :zzz:

I love the Jimmy Fallon Capital One commercials with the baby. And it looks like the baby likes them too.

EURO 2012 reminded me this cartoon (how Cossacks played the soccer):



It is Ukrainian, made in seventies, it was shown here many times when I was a kid.
