Day 1, Night 2 in Lisbon. This morning didn't start in the best way: after a very nice breakfast with fresh pastries and tea, we got out and immediately got soaked under a hideous rain, which lasted until lunchtime. It's not been the best weather to enjoy the city (at all), but Lisbon is always beautiful. After a hefty lunch, some blue stripes has appeared in the sky and the rain stopped. We enjoyed a walk back to the apartment to leave my tired mother and then got out again for some more exploring. Before getting back we stopped back at a Fnac store and of course I brought home a few CDs! 'Some nights' was one of them and even if I haven't been listening to Fun. for more than 2 years, I always liked the album and I took advantage of a good deal! And remember: when things look dark (or grey), somehow, some time it gets better!
What better song to share after a journey like this?! Let me tell you the story of my drive back home tonite after work, I haven't been laughing so hard for ages! I was travelling back home, one day in advance with respect to the usual schedule because I have some medical exams here tomorrow (of course), and as usual I uploaded my travel on Blablacar, the platform that allows you to share your car trips with other people. Today I had 2 girls contacting me, a single one and another one travelling with a friend; this latter one had kind of a "bitchy" picture, with a duck face and everything, but so many girls have it nowadays..! Well, when I get to the station, out meeting point, here I see those two girls, dressed up like hookers, belly out, piercings, platinum hair, cigarette, hard make-up... I say to myself "ooook!" and get them on, together with the other girl. When I asked them what they do for a living, they asked "hostess at events, modelling..." and then start talking on the phone with people, saying one of them tomorrow is at dinner with the surgeon and the other with someone else, and then one says that man are all the same, they are bad people but oh, how she loves c*ck! And then they wanted me to leave them at the highway barrier, even asked if they could walk through it on feet! I took them to the parking lot right after, and I'm still not sure about the guy that was supposed to come pick them up, if he was the "Moroccan", the "one who made their hair" or who else!
So much fun guys, so much fun! After we let them off, me and the other girl were laughing so hard! Guess they really are outlaws of love, and I am too, but in a totally different sense I'd say! Outlaws of love, outlaws of life!
Just to remain within the framework of my friend's playlist, here is a perfect pick for this week's sundayrevival! When 'We are young' came out in 2012, it's been a massive hit and I kinda liked it. But my love and interest for Fun. as a band evolved and became complete only after their next single reached success: I've always been in love with 'Some nights', it's probably my favourite song of theirs and it's the one that made me listen to their whole album, which I liked! I actually almost never go back to listen their 2012 album, but it's always pleasing when I hear one of their songs! Especially this one!
