3. Sensuality and sexuality are two different creatures.
IMO, this is one of the most attractive singers out there... and she doesn't do 'scantily clad'. :P

When I can't see where the untrustworthyness is, I can't trust you to be untrustworthy in ways that I expect. :P

A dishonest man you can trust to be dishonest. Honestly, it's the honest ones you want to watch out for, because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly... stupid.

33. Oh baby I'm an open book.
Men might preface stupid with lies. Believe me, I think that's often true. But us chicks? We don't have to lie. OK maybe some do but I'm too forgetful to be a liar. :rofl:

And I would never, ever lie about Amy Lee. :9

5. Great advice for those with talent but
since you don't need any music abilities to get a record deal and make music videos all many contemporary singers have to sell is an image.

14. I know - back in the old days, we had modest stars like Madonna & Samantha Fox
and a host of other modest stars.

19. I think we need to start a late-night infomercial
"Every five minutes, a pop star makes or performs a shitty song. We need your support to help our talentless pop stars. For just five cents a day..." :P

26. I like both your suggestions.
We'd have fewer pop stars in the world, and I wouldn't have to listen to that one pitch over and over again. :P

24. Bollywood's trend to showing skin distresses me.
India, do not go the way of America. Look well at us and change your course.

Sexy is sexy. Skin of itself is not sexy.

25. The thing is, Kate has talent. Contemporary females, eh, not so much.
I include Madonna in that group of girls who have to dress like sluts so no one notices how untalented they are. I just wish Christina Aguilara wouldn't dress so slutty as she has a nice set of pipes.

36. I doubt it. She was only 16 when he helped her get her start.
He's just a master musician who realizes phenomenal talent when he sees it.

35. i love this song by her:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzbw-53g2CU

man with the child in his eyes

reminds me of a friend, don, who died in a car accident after a night of Quaaludes. we were around 18 years old.

we worked together on a mid afternoon/evening shift. i told him i was going to quit my job because i never saw the sun setting anymore. and i missed it. i missed seeing the sun set.

the next night he grabbed the maintenance keys to the building and grabbed my hand. "get up. come with me." and he lead me out of the office, in the elevator to the top floor penthouse, unlocked the office penthouse, and lead me up a small stairway. he opened the door and there we were on the rooftop! "sit with me," he said. and i did. and we watched the sunset together.

it was probably one of the nicest things anyone had ever done for me.

i'll never forget that.

and then
he was gone within the year.
