-an OD of Love-

For one night only, the 29th of June 2007, the fans of good old rock music were treated to an evening like no other, an evening that sent shock waves throughout the crowded streets as Brian Adams well and truly rocked our little island.This was the first and hope, not the only Maltese date for Brian, whom at the end of the concert he also confirmed that the rumours that he has some Maltese blood rushing thru his veins, were for real. He certainly didn’t disappoint his fans in his more then two hour long set at Luxol’s Football ground in St. Andrews. The concert, in aid of the ‘Find Madeleine’ campaign was a cavalcade of rock.

It's called Spirit of Malta and it is just amazing both visually and even th...

This is one of my favourite local bands, Wintermoods. Wintermoods have been churning out amazing stuff for the last two decades and they are an amazing band. Isn't it weird how sometimes you listen to the same song for hundreds of times and you get cought just by the melody and/ or the superb voice of the singer, in this case Ivan's, but today I was sent the link to their video by my friend Alison and somehow I had to look for the lyrics and it is even more weird when sometimes you just think that the song has just been written especially for you because the words just hit the nail and paint a perfect picture of the phase one might be going thru at that particular time... enjoy... Marigold Goodbye love, it will be a while But I`m delighted Hold my heart, I`ll be back To reunite dear You said I will be all right Heard the sound When your earring touched the ground Take my hand, don’t be sad You`re so fine You`re beautiful Don’t look back, don’t say goodbye Turn around you`re bea...
