dabbe @TheBookHippie I don't know why, but I always thought of Gertrude in that way. Maybe because even her son lusts after her and basically calls her a whore? 🤣 2d

A Clockwork Orange | Anthony Burgess

My posts have been sadly deficient of David Bowie for too long! 😄

Driving to work on Tuesday, I was amused when David came on my playlist singing the line:
💬 Where the fuck did Monday go?
#TuesdayTunes @TieDyeDude #BooksAndBowie #BooksAndMusic
🎙️ David Bowie 🧑🏼‍🎤
🎵 Girl Loves Me
💿 Blackstar
📽️https://youtu.be/BFD4BMlka9Q?si=1lAX2Ne3LwH-4Tio

Bookwomble David's final album has several references to his back catalogue, and Girl Love Me expands on his use of Burgess's nadsat slang on Ziggy Stardust, with some polari thrown in for good measure. A dark, unsettling and catchy track 🖤 (edited) 5d

BarbaraBB Finally you‘re back to Bowie 😀 5d

Bookwomble @BarbaraBB We never left each other 😌💖 5d

BarbaraBB Glad to hear that ❤️ 5d

TieDyeDude That lyric video did not help me understand the song at all, but I like the moody vibe 2d

Bookwomble @TieDyeDude No! 😆 Nadsat is Burgess's invented slang for Alex and his droogs in A Clockwork Orange, and polari is a working class cant developed to baffle the police, later adopted by the UK gay community before the decriminalisation of homosexuality in the late '60s. (Sorry for the TED Talk!) The Genius lyrics site has translations 😊 https://genius.com/David-bowie-girl-loves-me-lyrics 2d

TieDyeDude @Bookwomble Wow, that is so cool. I'll definitely be digging into that soon 2d

dabbe @TheSpineView No way! Those sappy teenagers made we want to slap them and tell them to “Slow down!“ 🤣 Hmm. Maybe I'm more like Lady Macbeth than I thought. 🤔🤣🤩 1w

TheSpineView @dabbe It's hard to relate to teenagers. 1w

Hamlet | William Shakespeare

I feel like our entire society would be SO much better if everyone did A LOT more of this. Just putting that out there.

The Father | Florian Zeller

So many of these movies are on my To-Watch list, but I did better than I expected.

There are the three I've seen that shook my core. Not necessarily the best or my favorite, but the most memorable:

The Father - A mind-blowing, soul-crushing portrayal of dementia
The Tree of Life - More than a few walked out of the screening I was in. I don't know if I liked it, but it was art
The Substance - Not for the squeamish, but brilliant

dabbe You majorly kicked my sorry butt! Thanks for playing and sharing. 💙💚🩵 1w
