Malajube - UrsulineBand: Malajube
Song title: Ursuline
Donne-moi la force d'affronter
Le mal et les hommes
Mon squelette et ma chair
Ensevelis sous la terre
J'ai souffert, tu souffriras
Ne laisse pas tomber les bras
Je serai toujours avec toi
Aucun homme, ni aucune religion
Ne viendra sous ma robe
Aucun homme, ni aucune religion
Ne viendra sous ma robe
Pour brûler en enfer
**English translation, according to me:
Give me the strength to face
Evil and men
My skeleton and my flesh
Buried under the earth
I suffered, you will suffer
Do not give up
I will always be with you
No man, and no religion
Shall come under my robe
No man, and no religion
Shall come under my robe
To burn in hell
A Montreal band I have just discovered, although they've been around for a while. The Ursulines ([link]) are basically an order of nuns. The mix of such a heavy subject with the band's upbeat mood and the singer's young, sympathetic voice makes this song for me.
I'll be using this journal to post stuff about music, movies, or other stuff that I discover and want to share.
I finally got everything put together, I'll work on posting the rest of the work from 30/30 on here, but it may take a while.

You're mostly right, but being who I am I need to separate new from old and axloe was beginning to feel like an old, used-up skin. I started the page when I was 14, after all; I don't know many people who still associate well with what they did when they were a young teenager.
With the years I seem to have lost this creative impulse that used to feel so natural. My process now is more complex and more involved--in an odd, emotionless, offhand way. I craft what I do carefully rather than just pouring out my mind on the page. This is so wildly different than it was 3-5 years ago that it just doesn't feel right to bundle it all up together.
Whether that's for better or for worse... is for the reader to decide.
That is all. I look forward to seeing what you do with this dA.
