Pink Floyd

Pink Floyd is an English rock band which are known with its psychedelic and progressive rock music and philosophical lyrics. The group members are Nick Mason, Roger Water, Richard Wright, Bob Klose and Syd Barrett. They are now the most popular group in London because of its high quality and special music. Everybody (especially me=)) is dying to go to their concert. You can't help yourself to not listen them so, it sounds like they are going to have repercussions a lot and going to lead a lot of band too. Even now, you can see their influence on Genesis, Yes and Dream Theater etc. There are some rumors about Barrett though, which is his erratic behaviors are going to led his group-mates to replace him with David Gilmour who is going to be a singer and a guitarist in the band. It's a rumor though, nobody knows if it's real or not (;)). In fact, as knowing the position of Barrett in the group, if he leaves, Roger Waters would become the dominant force in the group. You know those are only theories of my own but if it happens, a lot of thing is going to chance in the group and in their music. I think there is nothing we can do but wait for time to show us what's going to happen;))

Fahrenheit 451

Fahrenheit 451 is the book of Ray Bradbury, which was published in 1953. The novel represents the future society of America where books have been outlaw by the government to prevent independent-thinking. There are firefighters who are responsible of burning books. Our protagonist whose name is Guy Montag, is a Fireman who falls in love with book hoarding Clarisse then he starts to read confiscated books. After that, the circumstances begin to progress. There is a film version of this book which was directed by one of my favourite director, François Roland Truffaut. Even though, I'm one of a fan of Truffaut, I think the book is much better. While reading the book, you visualize it so much differ than the film version but the film is really good too if you consider the fact that this much of technology is used in a film. Thus, I strongly recommend everybody to read this interesting book=))

Since the album is published, The Beatles were heard by everyone. The success of the album caused Rolling Stone to call them  "[their invention of] the self-contained rock band, writing their own hits and playing their own instruments." At the bottom, there is the lyrics of one of a great song of The Beatles from this album:

I Saw Her Standing There

Well, she was just 17,
You know what I mean,
And the way she looked was way beyond compare.
So how could I dance with another (ooh) 
When I saw her standin' there.

Well she looked at me, and I, I could see
That before too long I'd fall in love with her.
She wouldn't dance with another (whooh)
When I saw her standin' there.

Well, my heart went "boom,"
When I crossed that room,
And I held her hand in mine...

Well, we danced through the night,
And we held each other tight,
And before too long I fell in love with her.
Now, I'll never dance with another (whooh)
When I saw her standing there

Well, my heart went "boom,"
When I crossed that room,
And I held her hand in mine...

Oh, we danced through the night,
And we held each other tight,
And before too long I fell in love with her.
Now I'll never dance with another (whooh)
Since I saw her standing there 3x

I like this album a lot because as being the first album of The Beatles, you can see the improvements of The Beatles from the songs as you listen to the other songs from them. I hope you'll enjoy listening to that;))
