Live is Life - Opus

Post by Lambuzhao »

Not that it's a tradition or something, :roll:

But it seems like my July song translation is a few days later than normal.

If you want to try it, go on ahead; I picked this one for it's "end of the universe" optimism (¿if such a thing exists? ¿Gallows Optimism à la R.E.M. End of the World as We Know It? ) . But it's also quite repetitious (muitu occupadu!), and therein lies an easy game of jacks.

And it reminds me of another time, of bike rides down to the Crick, and explorations into the Tulgey Sultry Summer Wood, and with studies and lessons being across the Universe of my mind deep in Midsummer's eathe…
