Leonard Cohen,
Once upon a time, there was a guy, who wanted to introduce Mr. Cohen to me, I wasn't ready yet...but now I am..and I love his music and lyrics...It's amazing how my taste in music is changing..Like I generally don't care for the persian music that Shajarian sings,the ones that he elongates the words so much that the actual words are bunch of sounds, since I want to know what I am hearing, without my dad's translation!!!but I don't mind the other pieces that he sings that there is good articulation involved.I guess I am experiencing music and the mood philosophy...Last night at Patough, Despite the persian traditional music, I didn't mind it at all:)But I still want to go to Arian's concert here..can't wait for it...

I know all the hard work will pay off:)Melissa, a French girl in my company that I have become friends with, says:they can and will see your potential and brightness;)..I said thanks for the complement..and I wished in my heart that I that process be fast;)I beilieve in what Madonna once said...she said..if you want something really bad, you will have it...

My first TV interview;)
source of the picture: http://www.taomusic.tv/products_microphone.htm
To my suprize last night I got to interview some one for one of our local TV station in Toronto. Although since it will be aired on Satellite as well, it won't be too local;)which is not that great..since I am sure my work is not professional at all since it was my first time doing it. I am curious to see how it is composed at the end;)It was funny the guy told me that he can hire me as his interviewer and journalist;)another job opportunity, eh?Nah..;)The funniest thing is that if my family and friends in Iran watch it they would say..."This girl looks familiar"...!!!!!I bet they'll say;)

Fallen- Sarah Mclachlan
Dear Alirza,
Sarah released After Glow album in 2003. She started her vidoe clip with Fallen, and it was amazing. The first time I heard it, I thought it is Dido who is singing it, because of the style of singing but it is Sarah:) I hope you enjoy the lyrcis.
Heaven Bend to take my hand
And lead me through the fire
Be the long awaited answer
To a long and painful fight
Truth be told I tried my best
But somewhere long the way
I got caught up in all there was to offer
But the cost was so much more than I could bear
Though I've tried I've fallen
I have sunk so low
I messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here and
Tell me I told you so
We all begin out with good intent
When love is raw and young
We believe that we can change ourselves
The past can be undone
But we carry on our back the burdens time always reveals
In the lonely light of morning
In the wound that would not heal
It's the bitter taste of losing everything
I've held so dear
Though I've tried I've fallen
I have sunk so low
I messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here and
Tell me I told you so
Heaven bend to take my hand
I've nowhere left to turn
I'm lost to these I thought were friends
To everyone I know
Oh they turn their heads embarrassed
Pretend that they don't see
That it's one wrong step one slip before you know it
And there doesn't seem away to be redeemed
Though I've tried I've fallen
I have sunk so low
I messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here and
Tell me I told you so
I messed upBetter
I should know
So don't come round here and
Tell me I told you so
