"She's My Rushmore, Max!" My Favourite Film Rushmore

Posted on 14:50 by Unknown


Ooh La La - The Faces
Poor old Granddad, I laughed at all his words
I thought he was a bitter man
he spoke of women's ways
they'll trap you when they use you


before you even now
for love is blind and you're far to kind
don't ever let it show



I wish that I knew what I know now
when I was younger
I wish that I knew what I know now
when I was stronger



the can-can such a pretty show
will steal your heart away
but backstage back on earth again
the dressing rooms are grey


they come on strong and it ain't too long
for they make you feel a man
but love is blind and you soon will find
you're just a boy again



when you want her lips, you get her cheek
makes you wonder where you are
if you want some more then she's fast asleep
leaves you twinkling with the stars


poor young grandson there's nothing I can say


you'll have to learn, just like me
and that's the hardest way



ooh la la
ooh la la, la la, yeah



I wish that I knew what I know now


when I was younger
I wish that I knew what I know now
when I was stronger

Norse Goddess Freya

Posted on 11:04 by Unknown

Great Goddess, Mistress of cats,
Lady of love, beautiful Vana-Goddess,
Fulfill my greatest needs, O glorious one.




Teach me the magic I need.
Give me a glimpse of your deep wisdom.


Teach me in dreams. Enrich my life.




O Lady, you are Golden-Tears of Asgard
Lady of love, beautiful Vana-Goddess,
You are the Shape-shifter, the Sayer,
The Independent One.




Give me the strength and the magic I need.










Queen of the warrior-women,
Freyja of the Black Swordhand,




Mistress of Magic, enchantments deep,
You who beckon to fallen heroes,
Hearken to this, your child.

I would weave strong magic for protection,
Deep magic to bind and chasten.




I lift up my sword to repel all attackers.
Beware, foul troublemakers!
For Freyja whispers her spells in my ear.




Freyja, Queen of the Valkyries, stands at my side.








Freya, Goddess of gold,



inspire me today.
Teach me to walk through my day
with pride in my own being,



with confidence, 
with power.



Goddess of fiery passion,
bless me with the insight


to the marrow of my bones
that I am a person of worth


in the eyes of the Gods
the eyes of the ancestors
and of myself.



May I radiate this
and transforms all I meet.
That is my prayer for this day, oh great and powerful Goddess,
that I may mirror Your presence throughout my day.



In return, I shall praise You always,
and lay amber before Your image,
consigning it to the sacred fires that burn
when the day is at its longest.
Hail Freya, shining Goddess of gold.
I praise You.



























Norse Freya Faun´s (German Pagan Volk Band) Singer Fiona Rueggerberg

Blues Brothers - Sink The Bismarck

Posted on 03:11 by Unknown



In May of nineteen forty-one the war had just begun,
The Germans had the biggest ship,
They had the biggest guns.
The Bismarck was the fastest ship,


That ever sailed the seas,
On her deck were guns as big as steers,
And shells as big as trees.


Out of the cold and foggy night,
Came the British ship the Hood.


And ev'ry British seaman he knew and understood,
They had to sink the Bismarck, the terror of the sea.
Stop those guns as big as steers,
And those shells as big as trees.


We'll find that German battleship,
That's makin' such a fuss.
We gotta sink the Bismarck,
'Cause the world depends on us.
They hit the decks a-runnin' boys,
And spin those guns around.
When we find the Bismarck we gotta cut her down.




The Hood found the Bismarck and on that fatal day.
The Bismarck started firin' fifteen miles away.
We gotta sink the Bismarck was the battle sound.
But when the smoke had cleared away,
The mighty Hood went down.


For six long days and weary nights,
They tried to find her trail.
Churchill told the people put ev'ry ship a-sail,
'Cause somewhere on that ocean,
I know she's gotta be.
We gotta sink the Bismarck to the bottom of the sea.




We'll find that German battleship,
That's makin' such a fuss.
We gotta sink the Bismarck,
'Cause the world depends on us.
They hit the decks a-runnin' boys,
And spin those guns around.
When we find the Bismarck we gotta cut her down.




The fog was gone the seventh day,
And they saw the mornin' sun.
Ten hours away from homeland,
The Bismark made its run.
The Admiral of the British fleet said,
Turn those bows around.


We found that German battleship,
And we're gonna cut her down.




The British guns were aimed,
And the shells were comin' fast.
The first shell hit the Bismarck,
They knew she couldn't last.
That mighty German battleship is just a memory.
Sink the Bismarck was the battle cry,
That shook the seven seas.




We found that German battleship,
Was makin' such a fuss.
We had to sink the Bismarck,
'Cause the world depends on us.
We hit the deck a-runnin' and,
We spun those guns around.
We found the mighty Bismarck,
And then we cut her down.


We found that German battleship,
Was makin' such a fuss.
We had to sink the Bismarck,
'Cause the world depends on us.
We hit the deck a-runnin' and,
We spun those guns around.
We found the mighty Bismarck,
And then we cut her down.








This song was performed at Bob's Country Bunker, but the scene was cut from the movie. It´s very rare!
