Well Atlantis, I took your advice and played this video. I had ABBA flashbacks, did you? I thought the song was pretty good and I liked it. I've never heard of Neoton Familia though, thank you for the gift.

Just found out, they're from Hungary. Cool. Thanks.

Of course not!! And yeah ABBA influence big time.

This is what was going on under the iron curtain in the 80s in Soviet Union!

Here is another for you, LOL! Gorbachev song! 1986!

worth it??? I guess you could say that. Past relationships have made me stronger and a different perception on things

Yes, if it's real, it's always worth it.

I don't know what she's doing now, but if this was 1986, she has the moves, a pretty voice, and she's hot. Just needs a good PR person, and a songwriter and she'd be the next Lady Gaga.

LOL! Don't think so, she is about 50 or more now.. although still sings songs, but kinda stays away from singing in English.

here she is a few years ago:

Some will swear that the emptiness that they feel now is because they experienced love...and would have been better off to not have.

I don't understand that thinking..do understand the emotion behind it.
Rather sad, I think.

Well, it's been fun to read all of your opinions...so, with that having been said...

Good night all, till tomorrow!

If you had spent the entirety of your life not having had affection returned, you would not ask that question.

If I became close with someone just once, even if it turned out badly, I could take solace in the fact that now I know.

The not knowing what having affection returned feels like, that is the worst part.

I would take one short term relationship over nothing at all.

That was interesting...

She let herself go, but still, a a hell of a voice.

Just one year of love
Is better than a lifetime alone
One sentimental moment in your arms
Is like a shooting star right through my heart
It's always a rainy day without you
I'm a prisoner of love inside you -
I'm falling apart all around you - yeah
My heart cries out to your heart
I'm lonely but you can save me
My hand reaches out for your hand
I'm cold but you light the fire in me
My lips search for your lips
I'm hungry for your touch
There's so much left unspoken
And all I can do is surrender
To the moment just surrender

And no one ever told me that love would hurt so much
Oooh yes it hurts
And pain is so close to pleasure
And all I can do is surrender to your love
Just surrender to your love
Just one year of love
Is better than a lifetime alone
One sentimental moment in your arms
Is like a shooting star right through my heart
It's always a rainy day without you
I'm a prisoner of love inside you
I'm falling apart all around you
And all I can do is surrender

Good Night John

being religious or not, quoted from the bible


1 Corinthians 13
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor, and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.

even if its not, its worth it to try, always

can we keep the quoting of scriptures in the religious threads...please.

aside from all of the guilt

not if its how i feel?

Is it worth it?

Most times I would tell you yes. Once you have felt loved it is a powerful draw. But recently I think I have finally reached the bottom of the well and don't want to even look for love anymore.
