Makes you feel much older
Sublime the blind parade
It wrecks me how they justify their acts of war
They assemble, they pray
Take good care of what the priests say
'After death it's so much fun'
Little sheep don't let your feet stray
Happiness is easy
Joy be written upon the earth
And the sky above
Jesus star that shines so bright
Gather us in love
Guilt upon their shoulders
How well the cause evades
Infecting your religions, claiming pacts
It's easy to shoulder the blame
Happiness is easy
Little ships of Galilee
Happiness is easy
Standing on the sea
Happiness is easy
Jesus tried to love us all
Happiness is easy
Be a friend to me
Happiness is easy
Try to teach my children
To recognise excuse before it acts
From love and conviction to pray
Take good care of what the priests say
'After death it's so much fun'
Little sheep don't let your feet stray
Happiness is easy
Little ships of Galilee
Standing on the sea
Jesus tried to love us all
Be a friend to me
Joy be written upon the earth
And the sky above
Jesus star that shines so bright
Gather us in love

Talk Talk - Happiness Is Easy

Power to the peaceful

Last Thursday I went to the opening of the North Sea Jazz Festival at the Plein in The Hague. One of my favourite musicians, Michael Franti, was performing there. I esspecially liked his new song "Bomb the World".

We can bomb the world to pieces,
But we can't bomb it into peace.

Here the song for yourself (Flash Player required)

Is she Britney Spears?

Seems to be all around things of beauty today. A large weblog storm has been raging around a post of Channel 96. They claim they have received one of the six photographs Playboy took of Britney Spears. Playboy is assumed to have payed a total of 40 million dollars for the shoot. A well, all shall be revealed (...) soon enough. Otherwise it is one of the best fake/stand in jobs I have ever seen. As always, click on the image to judge for yourself...
UPDATE: Turns out she is a model called Emmie...
