If I heard a waltz in the tube, I would dance with you

I hope Pope John Paul II doesn't die before May, 2004! I really don't wish him any harm. I knocked on wood three times last night... but I don't know how that is effective against the Catholic Church! They have martyr bones... I have tired bones.

No competition.

And I love classical music and want to learn more about it. I've already decided that Vivaldi is very sexless and gut-wrenchingly nostalgic. What are your favourite classical composers, and why?

when I was a little girl my mum, my aunt, and my grandma took me to see the nutcracker, (I had to sit on the jackets to be able to see) and I loved it, I adored it, and it is still my favorite thing of all time. I got the record that christmas, (I think I was about five)and wore it out I listened to it so much

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

i've never seen it... my parents only took me to see cinderella, but i don't remember much... i heard one of the songs from the Nutcracker on the radio, on the day after Christmas, and it was beautiful.

[4q.livejournal.com]

the whole thing is absolutly beautiful...ummm if I can find a good recording of it, I will send it to you

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

[4q.livejournal.com]

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

[4q.livejournal.com]

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

[4q.livejournal.com]

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

[4q.livejournal.com]

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

[4q.livejournal.com]

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

i think we should get some crochet manuals and knit some outfits for your barbie.

[4q.livejournal.com]

ha ha those are so cute!!

I don't understand how a composers music could be taken as "sexless".
Also, I happen to like Vivaldi.
I also like Schubert. However, I know very little about classical- however, I do listen to it on the radio from time to time.

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

i found one of his compositions, which I wouldn't even be able to tell you which, stirring in me these feelings that, at the time, he composed it in a frame of wind where sexuality wasn't considered. I think, in fact, that a lot of Classical music is like that - it's from a time when they tried to not think too much about sex and aspired only for the brain, the intellectual, the spiritual.

I love Schubert! I had to do a biography review on him in University and I fell in love with his music...

[idioticpoet.livejournal.com]

so it made you horny?
Hmm. That's interesting. I can't think of a single song that made me horny. At least, not classical ones.

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

HAHAHAHA! I just read what i wrote:

frame of wind :oP

I meant frame of mind...


(no, the song didn't make me horny at all... it made me feel as if I was listening to music for someone who is not sexual!)

[moonlightjoy.livejournal.com]

I really like Schubert, too! Romantic period music. sigh...

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

i wish i had your knowledge of it. :)

i want to learn more and more...
