The Veronicas

Lyrics:

I go ooh ooh, you go ah ah
L-l-l-la, ah l-l-l-la
I can la, la, la, l-la, la
I wanna, wanna, wanna get, get, get what I want, don't stop

Give me, give me, give me what you got, got
'Cause I can't wait, wait, wait anym-more, more, more
Don't even talk about the consequence
'Cause right now you're the only thing
That's making any sense to me

And I don't give a damn what they say, what they think, think
'Cause you're the only one who's on my mind
I'll never ever let you leave me
I'll try to stop time for ever, never wanna hear you say goodbye
Bye, bye

I feel so untouched and I want you so much
That I just can't resist you, it's not enough to say that I miss you
I feel so untouched right now, need you so much
Somehow I can't forget you, I've gone crazy from the moment I met you

Untouched
And I need you so much

See you, breathe you, I want to be you
Ah l-l-la, ah l-l-l-la
You can take, take, t-take, take time, time
To live, live the way you gotta, gotta live your life

Give me, give me, give me all of you, you, don't be scared
I'll see you through the lonely nights of wanting more, more, more
Don't even think about what's right or wrong or wrong or right
'Cause in the end it's only you and me

And no one else is gonna be around
To answer all the questions left behind
And you and I are meant to be so even if the world falls down today
You've still got me to hold you up, up
And I will never let you down, down

I feel so untouched and I want you so much
That I just can't resist you, it's not enough to say that I miss you
I feel so untouched right now, need you so much
Somehow I can't forget you, I've gone crazy from the moment I met you

Untouched, un
Untouched
Untouched, un
Untouched

Untouched, un
Ah l-l-la, ah l-l-l-la
Untouched
Ah l-l-la, ah l-l-l-la

I feel so untouched and I want you so much
That I just can't resist you, it's not enough to say that I miss you
I feel so untouched right now, need you so much

Somehow I can't forget you, I've gone crazy from the moment I met you

I feel so untouched and I want you so much
That I just can't resist you, it's not enough to say that I miss you
I feel so untouched right now, need you so much
Somehow I can't forget you, I've gone crazy from the moment I met you

Untouched, un
Untouched
Untouched, un

>> From a statement of time...

"2219"

Welcome to the Year 2219.

The world has changed a lot since you were put on ice and spaced up.

It's been broken down into two super-powers: the Euromerican Alliance in the Western Hemisphere and the Pacifica Conglomerate in the Eastern Hemisphere.

Euromerica is not so much an alliance as it is one large federalized union of nation-states dominated by the nation-descendant of the 21st century USA.

The Conglomerate is a representative oligarchy, since the countries of Asia and Australasia Privatized, transforming into corp-nations.

The Yangtze Syndicate and Jai-Hind Megacorp have the largest blocs of voting power on the Oligarchical Council, but Singapura Tech (SingTech for short) and Nippon Foundries own the technologies that every nation uses.

The region originally known as the Middle-East is now known as the Desert Emirates, aligned with neither side and stubbornly holding on to neutrality. The militaristic Emirate of Israestine, the end result of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, maintains its grip on its territory, including the area surrounding the Suez Canal, and resists the predations of the other Emirates.

Russia's been broken down by severe economic pressure & downturn, orchestrated by the pre-privatisation Pan-Asian Bloc, industrial sabotage, internal strife caused by dissenters, agent provacateurs & rebels, the Chechen Problem coming home to roost, "Siberiarization" - the freak Ice Age that hit poor Mother Russia - and the Bratva Russkya hostile takeover of the government nearly a century ago.

Whatever's left of Russia is actually the physical landmass of Siberia, which currently stretches up to Irkutsk and is now the Corpnation of the Russo-Cyberian Enclave.

The Russian Steppes are home to nomads and vast underground warrens, neither side able to claim them wholesale due to the presence of the Kossacks and their underground dwelling Kohl Black allies. Therefore, both sides had to be satisfied to leave it as a buffer zone.

Africa is mostly desert and grassland, its countries having dissolved into supposed anarchy or gone 'wild', its people returning to feudal or nomadic ways.

Except for the remains of South Africa, Namibia, Lesotho, Swaziland, Mozambique & Madagascar and some of surrounding islands which now make up the arcological ecopolises of the Afrikaan Republic.

There are a lot of possibilities for making cred and earning rep, regardless which side of the line you choose, mate.

Unless you choose to be one of the Greys, which is another story by itself.

So, let's get you cleaned up and looking good for the world, ey...

... came a whole idea for a world.

>>> I'll never let you fall...

This track has been bouncing around the inside on my head, repeatedly, in a random pattern. Especially the chorus. Strangely enough, this doesn't worry me. Probably because that it's pretty normal.

In my case, anyway.

Even if it has me wanting to mosh like a fiend.

Yup, pretty much average.

Just normal.

Really.

Anyways, lucky me found the music video on YouTube. So in true unselfish fashion (No, not just 'coz I'm crazy. Really!), I'm sharing this with whoever wanders across this way. Hope you lot enjoy it.

WOT-HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

... right outta my head, just slide slowly out.

>>> Another post-apocalyptic...

... animation, is anyone noticing something yet?

>>> That's just...

The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making

This is the first time that I, personally, have seen a visual form of trailer for a book. And in video form, no less. The illustrations are rather darling, to say the least, tastefully done with such child-like innocence of flavour. And the background - or should that be foreground? - music is quite entrancing and fit as perfect as a peg to the illustrations as well.

I am even more intrigued and interested in reading this novel and to share it amongst my friends.

Ah, well...

... time waits for no one, but we shall wait for the right time.

So many books, so little time.

And time is money.

Isn't it?

*echoes of laughter trail away into the shadows*

... the way is clear.
