This is the disco version of "Angel Eyes" by Roxy Music. I saw Wings of Desire in the theatre when it was released in 1987. The photo is a Rutger Hauer look-alike shot down in the war. This is a synopsis for the excerpt.

Today is All Souls' Day, as we call it in the States. It's a day to visit a cemetery plot of a loved one and spruce it up. In Rome, the ancients had their own version, but they would climb on top of the sepulchres and party on the roof.

| We don't have forever.

So boo. Trick or treat. Go find an old oak and dance under it tonight. Me, I'm going to crawl under the nearest goose-down duvet, "say a few spells, and baby, there you go". It's finally cool here!

These are photos I took in one "sitting", as I was hanging with friends in Piazza Maria Formosa. It was raining, and we had ducked under the canopies of a bar / restaurant, so while they were drinking wine, I was scampering shamelessly around the piazza, marvelling at the colours of the umbrellas under the grey palette.

Bentrovato. That's the reply to the title of this post. When you return from a trip, people in your regular Italian life say: Bentornato, well return. The reply is: Bentrovato, well found. Obviously that's a pretty literal translation, but I prefer the literal, in this case.

| Duran Duran : Come Undone

| The One with Scarlett Johansson : Dolce & Gabbana

I have waited almost a year to play this song. I am leaving for the Fatherland very soon, and I won't have time for another post. This is my farewell for quite a long time. I'll be around the second half of October.

La luna del raccolto, the harvest moon, is here, time to celebrate the crop yield by dancing around a big bonfire and burning effigies and such. It's also another Supermoon and boy, can we feel it here. Everyone's stretching like rubber bands.

"The profound feeling of realizing that everyone, including strangers passing in the street, has a life as complex as one's own, which they are constantly living despite one's personal lack of awareness of it"

| Leonard Cohen : Avalanche

"Very PUNK ROCK", my friend wrote. And so it is. The new Moderna vaccine is in full swing, now, along with all the new Covid cases in my life. Like, everyone has it. This post is kinda punk, maybe not in the original sense, or in the original, original sense, but in a 2020s kinda way.
