George Chapter of the Day. March 13, 2024

Greetings my dear tumblr and Beatles' families! Happy to announce I'm popping a foot into the fanfiction pool and seeing 👀 what happens. Your comments are more than welcome!!

All the important stuff:

Title: I Saw Her Standing There

Story Description: John, Paul, George and Ringo meet Joie Armagh, a strong willed American girl, who influences their lives more than they wanted.

Trigger Warnings: swearing, drinking, smoking, drug references, adult situations and behavior, M/F smut, fluff, falling in love, tense arguments, angst.

**18 only please***

**This is a work of fiction. As such, it should not be read as a factual account of events or as biography. While many characters of the story bear the names of actual people, they and their actions have been imagined by the author and should be considered products of the imagination. This story is fictional and the events did not happen. It is written and re-produced here online for the purposes of entertainment only.**

Author's Note: I've noticed many fanfics have a Starrison or a McLennon flair, but this story will be M/F interactions including smut. It's just how I see them! Now if you're under 18, just move yourself right along. As I'm not there to patrol over you, just be strong and pass this up. I had to wait to read adult material and so do you!

Thank you to gif artists and photo owners.

Phew! That's over....

She was across the room from him; he could barely see her without his thick, black rimmed glasses. He felt her. Felt her as if she were standing within inches of him. His skin was hot. The light brown hair on his arms came alive – his stomach grumbled with a feral intensity.

Chapter 1

There was something about her. Something, he figured, she didn't know about yet, something she didn't know how to use – yet – but it made John Winston Lennon rearrange his slumped body to a nearly half-attentive position.

John watched her as best he could without his glasses. He was nearly blind without them, but acknowledged only to himself that he was far too vain to wear them in public. Besides, if he had to see something that important, Paul, George or Ringo would alert him. But at this moment, they were too interested in their own orbits to notice much.

She was talking to someone. Someone he didn't know – which he didn't care much about. From her body language, he could tell it was tense. She ran a hand through her short, auburn hair, and he continued to watch as she pointedly aggravated the man she was talking to.

This, to John, was great entertainment.

She turned in John's direction, although he couldn't tell if she saw him or not. It was nice she wasn't straining to scope out a look at the four of them , like they were the side-show freaks they felt like – or make a mad dash for the table to try to touch him like he was some bloody good luck charm. He liked that. Maybe she didn't give a shit who they were. THAT, he nodded to himself, would be refreshing for a fucking change.

She was, however, very pissed off at the little runt who was running the audition and had he been asked, John would have agreed with her. The whole scene was outrageously idiotic, as were their whole lives now, but he had danced with the devil and this was payback time.

The little moron in charge, whom John was introduced to but couldn't have cared less about, was a highly paid ass-kisser with a slimy handshake and badly manipulated crew cut. John might have the appearance of someone who didn't give a shit, but he took in everything. Every person, every nuance, every sight and smell and sound. Nothing got past him, unless he wanted it to. And the little California-tanned wild bird was giving it to the little pisser and John couldn't take his eyes away from her. It made him jealous and angry and aroused that she could do what he wasn't allowed to.

Brian was about to intervene, as the pisser/wild bird barney was holding up the whole show. He wanted to tell Brian to leave her alone, that she was practically giving him a hand job from across the room, but he also had an immediate urge to get the hell out of this place. He didn't like the United States. Too much fucking sunshine and not a decent cup of tea within 10,000 miles. But, as was his current circumstance, money, the promise of women and fame had too much a hold on all four of them for anyone to say "piss off" and head back home to England. Because as sure as the sun rose in the east, if one went home, they'd ALL go home.

John watched as Brian interrupted the moron and the woman of his dreams. He threw an elbow into Paul's side to wordlessly alert him to the situation. Paul lifted up his brown eyes and tried to force a smile.

"Another one?"

"No man. Totally different. She's cutting that audition manager a new asshole."

"Good. Maybe we can get the fuck out of here. I'm beginning to think I made a wrong move when I chose a band over plumber's apprentice."

John looked at Paul. "You? A plumber? I'd pay to see your ass rooting out some loo in the low rent district."

"Piss off....," he answered. "So what's going on?"

John filled him in. Ringo and George were both still half asleep, cigarettes hanging off their lower lips. No one made any attempt to pay attention when their manager approached them.

"Get those bloody fags out of your mouths," Brian said to them. "You are all clean cut, working class boys from across the pond – and well paid to act your parts. So sit up and pay attention."

John made an obscene gesture. Ringo turned his back to him continuing to smoke and George leaned forward and gazed at Brian with his middle finger slowly working its way up to his temple.

Paul, ever the diplomat, made a valiant attempt to appear slightly more involved. "Look Brian, we aren't trying to make your life hell, but this is getting out of hand. We've spent 2 hours evaluating 200 girls who want to have a role in this movie. Really, it doesn't matter. We don't even know what the movie is about. Just have that little audition manager pick out the best of the bunch and send everyone on their way."

Brian sighed and pulled up a chair. John knew they were about to be lectured from the Brian Epstein Guide to Managing a Famous British Band. John wished he could order about a dozen Scotch and Cokes and call it a day.

"Boys," he started.

Ringo, George and John turned the switches off and began cruising down the avenues of their brains. Paul pretended to listen and caught the gist of the whole thing.

They were famous. Yes, he remembered that. There were politics involved in being famous. Yes, he remembered that. It was sometimes necessary to go through these things for the publicity. Yes, he remembered that.

"Just like a politician. You have to, figuratively speaking, kiss the babies and hug the old ladies. Half these girls are daughters of Hollywood big-wigs. We can't piss them off. We must pretend we are gentlemen."

"Thank God we've had lessons...." John piped in. "Now shut the hell up and tell me who that bird is."

"Who?"

"The one who is still going off on the audition manager."

Brian turned and jumped up. "Oh shit."

John sat totally upright for the first time all day as he saw her coming towards them at a determined gait. The audition manager followed her, mumbling.

Brian was about to intercept her when John looked at him sternly. "Back off, big man. Let her have her say."

If there was one thing Brian knew, it was when to absolutely listen to John. He could manipulate the other three on an individual basis, but John alone or the 4 of them enmasse, well, that was the ballgame. He let out a heavy breath.

John stood to watch her walk towards them. He had seen plenty of pretty girls since becoming famous. He had HAD plenty of pretty girls since becoming famous, but this pissed off bird was in a class by herself. She was nothing like the girls he normally went after – nothing like the birds of his own turf. He was, at this stage of his life, attracted to "bee-bees", Beautiful, Brainless and Sexy chicks who knew better than to open their mouths for anything except a blow-job. After a brief affair consisting of plenty of sex and perhaps a late night supper or two, maybe an autograph or an album, it was less of a problem to diplomatically dump a BB than it was a hometown girl or some mate's sister.

John had his exit line and delivered it with the precision of Olivier playing Hamlet. He could conjure up this little boy lost persona, with a pained "this is going to hurt me more than it is you" look and begin his speech. "I'm SOOO sorry, but I've realized that I really DO love my wife and I don't know how to thank you for helping me see the honest truth. I have to go back to her. Your unselfishness and honesty showed me what I must do. I know you'll understand. I can't tell you what you have done for me. I will never forget you (insert name or not). "

And it worked. 99% of the time. The other 1%, Brian took care of.

All at once, she was in front of them. Directly in between Paul and George. John shifted in his chair to look at her.

"Look, I know this is all fun and games, but it's 95 degrees out there in the hallway and girls are dropping like flies. There's no water, no air. C'mon---hasn't everyone had enough?"

Brian walked over to her and extended a courtly British hand. "I'm sorry Ms. but you will have to get back into line or leave the audition. You are causing a disruption."

The young woman looked at Brian then beseechingly at the four English lads that were sitting before her. John, for once in his life, was speechless.

Paul stood and faced her. "We didn't know..." was all he could muster. She was not amused. Not amused at all with any of them. George turned his eyes toward her and remained quiet.

"Well, now you do," she said without emotion, then sighed. "Look, I know you are the biggest things to come out of England since Earl Grey, but it's really hot out there. Can you put an end to this?"

George finally spoke. "What are you doing here?"

Her brown eyes flashed at him. "Does it matter? I'm just trying to get those other girls out of the heat."

"Why do you care?" John blurted out, his cigarette smoke exiting his mouth.

She sighed and was going to speak when Brian returned with a police officer and the audition manager.

"Hold off...." John eyed him.

The police officer stared at the woman for a minute before saying, "Joie?"

She looked at him and smiled. "Yes. It's me. I'm just trying to get those girls out of the heat, Mr. Watson. Or get them some water or something. I know they are all probably daughters of movie studios, but they are melting just the same."

Officer Watson turned to Brian. "I know this girl. She doesn't mean any harm. And after all, she has a point...."

John and Brian exchanged looks. Brian knew it well.

"We will get the girls out of the heat and move this along...." He answered properly.

"Thank you." Was all she said. And she turned to leave.

She didn't give a shit that they were the Beatles. She didn't give a shit if she got a bit part in their first movie. She just didn't give a shit about them. What she cared about was 90 remaining strangers, struggling in the heat.

John was enamored.

The audition manager was sweating profusely. He was too old for this shit. He had been around the greats---Barrymore, Hepburn, Gable. These punks from somewhere in England might make every girl wet her pants, but all they were was trouble to him.

Brian pulled him aside and a plan was made to move the line of girls along so they could get a look at the Lads from Liverpool and Brian would pick the 15 or so they needed in bit parts. The others would be given a ticket to the final concert in the film. All Brian knew for sure is that there was going to be a concert at the end. And 100 seats were to be occupied by the offspring of Hollywood elites. The other seats were to be auctioned off to fans through the fan club.

This is what he knew....as the screenwriter typed away, tucked safely back in London.

"Mal...." John groused at their assistant. "get her number....."

Some lad was tweeting to Liam this morning: "you defs rimmed noel when you were younger fruit loops" and Liam replied "You jealous".

While I wouldn't read too much into Liam's reply since it just sounds like his usual banter, I'm more stunned that some lad straight up tweets to Liam that he's sure that him and his bro were sexually involved with each other back in the day. I wonder how many more people see something between Liam and Noel but wouldn't admit it

Haha! I saw this earlier and was simultaneously laughing my head off and gobsmacked at both tweeter's brazen confidence and Liam's equally brazen response! The normies are catching on! lol

I bet many people see something unusual about them, or think their obsessive behaviour is more than a little weird, but won't say it out loud (except for this guy) lol. Or they read about it online. Funnily enough, I've seen a noticeable rise in mentions of this sort of thing on Twitter and TikTok. There was even discussion about it recently on Reddit of all places.

Rumours and suspicions about Liam and Noel have always been around though, even back in the day, like really early on. I recall it being mentioned among fans as early as 1997/98, basically after Loch Lomond. Unlike Gen X, the new, younger fans that Liam is recruiting aren't likely to stick their heads in the sand and pretend Loch Lomond didn't happen, or that it was entirely normal behaviour.

We've seen the impact that younger fans have had on the Beatles fandom, questioning John and Paul's relationship (and leading to a forthcoming Lennon/McCartney biography, which is exciting!). So it'll be interesting to see if the Oasis fandom changes in a similar way with more attention being given to examining Liam and Noel's relationship beyond the usual conflict/power struggle.

Heres a fun one! If you were to describe your Narrator when he takes on a form, what would he look like? Tall, short? Greying hair? Dark hair? Glasses? No glasses? I'm suddenly curious now.

Ah, a fun and easy question to answer. Let's see:

My narrator is taller than me. I'm 5 foot, 6 inches, and when I think about him, he usually is at least six inches taller than that, though it has been known to vary. I like tall people, they make excellent hugging partners. Especially when they do that thing where they let you rest the top of your head under their chin. Absolutely underrated.

His hair is a kind of a pale sandy brown, it was once much darker, but it's definitely starting to fade. He's got flecks of gray running through his hair, and if you gave him another five years, it would probably all turn gray by then. My mind switches between having his hair be perfectly combed and gelled, and being a mess because he runs his fingers through it when anxious or emotional, which is- most of the time. Like extreme bedhead.

He wears glasses, with no dark rims, it's all just glass. It's hard to explain their exact kind, but it's a fusion of half moon spectacles and John Lennon's famous pair. 3/4ths moon spectacles? I don't know how to describe it.

His eye color shifts, depending on my mood. Blue and brown are the most common colors, though green has been known to crop up from time to time.

He's always appeared to me as an older man, early fifties at the youngest, late sixties at the oldest. His body type is chubby. I don't know how to explain it, but he doesn't sound young or thin to me, so I don't picture him that way.

He dresses like an english professor, which is very fitting. We're talking tweed jackets and ties, turtle necks, blazers, dark slacks, the whole thing.

And I don't know how much sense this makes, but when I picture him, his form isn't 100% realistic. When I think about other fictional characters, I've got a fairly clear grasp on their form. But with him, he looks more cartoony. Like an alien getting a glimpse of a human and then being asked to make a kids show about them. Details tend to shift around a lot, so a shorthand would be:

Irritated and long suffering English professor who is in desperate need of a vacation, or retirement. He's just graded an essay on why his favorite book isn't really all that great, and he's got a migraine coming on. Grumpy old man with a soft spot under several layers of ego and anxiety.

But yeah, how I picture him tends to change a lot. If you asked me in a week's time, some of the details would be different. It's a matter of personal taste, but some interpretations I look at and instantly go, "yeah, that's him." and some I don't.

Robert Fraser, John Lennon, and Jonathan Cott, 1968

In the Montagu Square apartment in Marylebone, London, John Lennon is photographed by Ethan Russell as he listens to various singles and talks with art gallery owner Robert Fraser and Rolling Stone journalist Jonathan Cott. September 17, 1968

Update: @misspaoline adds "It was Robert Fraser who introduced reporter Jonathan Cott to John Lennon"

This is recounted in Jonathan Cott's book, Days That I'll Remember:

"A week before John’s You Are Here exhibition was going to close, I revisited the Robert Fraser Gallery to see the show one last time. On the afternoon I was there, I decided to introduce myself to Fraser, whom I found surprisingly approachable and gracious. He told me that he subscribed to Rolling Stone, and when I mentioned that I would love to interview John for the magazine, he informed me that the Beatles were in the midst of working on their White Album, and that he doubted that John would have time to see me. But he took down my phone number and said that he’d propose the idea to him and would report back if he heard something positive. At the end of August, I received my dreamed-of call. Fraser conveyed to me the news that John was willing to grant me an interview in mid-September, and offered to act as liaison with regard to arranging all the details. A week later, Fraser phoned to tell me that I should come to John and Yoko’s London flat on September 17 at five o’clock in the afternoon and that he would be there as well to make the introductions…

I arrived at 34 Montagu Square on Tuesday, September 17, 1968, at five o’clock in the afternoon. I nervously rang the doorbell, and after a few seconds, a smiling John Lennon—his round, wire-rimmed granny glasses immediately gave him away—opened the door. “Come in, come in!” he said, took my coat, then led me into the living room where I saw Robert Fraser sitting on a couch next to Yoko Ono, who was dressed in a black sweater and black pants. Glancing around the room, I was instantly transfixed by the astonishing array of photos and posters hanging on the walls. Among them were the two full-length nude photos of John and Yoko that would appear on the controversial cover of their soon-to-be-released Unfinished Music No. 1: Two Virgins album; a giant Sgt. Pepper ensign; the fanciful 1967 Time magazine Beatles cover for which the cartoonist Gerald Scarfe had sculpted the group using papier-mâché, paste, wire, sticks, and watercolors; and Richard Hamilton’s iconic poster collage made up of news clippings about the Rolling Stones’ 1967 drug bust, for which Fraser had received his six-month prison sentence. There was the scent of Indian incense in the air, and John, Yoko, Robert, and I sat down around a simple wooden table covered with magazines, newspapers, a beaded necklace shaped in the form of a pentacle, a sketch pad on which I caught a glimpse of some of John’s inimitable skittery cartoonlike drawings, and an ashtray brimming over with French Gitanes cigarette butts.

We began talking about John’s recent You Are Here exhibition but were shortly interrupted by the ringing of the telephone. John got up to take the call, and when he returned, he informed me apologetically that he’d just found out that he needed to be at an all-night Beatles recording session at Abbey Road Studios for the White Album. So we agreed to meet up the next day to do the interview. But as I got up to leave, John unexpectedly said, “Why don’t you just come along with Yoko and me to the session"…John, Yoko, and I left the flat, entered a waiting limousine, and were driven to St. John’s Wood."

-Days That I'll Remember: Spending Time With John Lennon and Yoko Ono

(Looks like Robert didn't go to the studio with them. Interesting.)

What are the most popular Zeelool women eyeglass frames?

With trends persisting over a couple of years, some styles of eyeglasses continue to be popular among women. However, current specific brand, designer, and style trends might have changed since then. Some of the trendiest Zeelool eyeglasses were:

Zeelool Cat-eye frames:

This retro, feminine style continues to be a popular choice. With a variety of designs ranging from extreme pointy styles to more rounded and subtle variants, the cat-eye frame suits a variety of face shapes.

The outer edges can be more or less exaggerated depending on the look one is aiming for – either a pronounced and bold vintage style or a rather more subtle and gentle contemporary style. Cat-eye glasses come in a wide variety of colors and patterns and can be used for both prescription eyeglasses and sunglasses. Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, and Elizabeth Taylor are among the celebrities who popularized the style in the mid-20th century, and today they are worn by many individuals who value their distinctive and fashionable look. They can suit many face shapes, but they particularly complement those with square or diamond facial structures as they help to add some balance and softness to these sharp features.

Zeelool Round frames:

Round glasses frames have been popular in various periods in history like in the early 20th century and 1960's, and have made a strong comeback in recent years. Some of the most notable wearers of round glasses include John Lennon, Mahatma Gandhi, and Harry Potter, which adds a distinct cultural resonance to this style.

Round frames can be made from diverse materials, including metal and different types of plastic, such as acetate. Metal frames often have a more vintage, classic appearance, while plastic configurations offer a modern look and can come in a broad array of colors.

Some round frames may be perfectly circular, while others may have a more elliptical or oval shape. Some lenses will be much larger, harking back to the oversized glasses of the 1970s, while others will be smaller for a more subtle style.

Zeelool Geometric frames:

Frames in geometric shapes like octagonal, hexagonal, and square have been on the rise. They provide a modern, unique look, and offer a refreshing break from traditional shapes.

Geometric glasses frames also may come in a variety of colors, sizes, and materials, depending on what's in style or popular at the time. These types of frames are often chosen to create a statement look or to accentuate the wearer's unique style. It's important to find a shape that fits well with your face shape and personal style.

Zeelool Aviator frames:

Originally a sunglasses style, aviators have successfully transitioned into the realm of corrective eyewear. They are suitable for both casual and office environments.

Aviator frames are characterized by their oversized teardrop shape, which is designed to cover the entire range of the human eye and prevent as much light as possible from entering the eye from any angle. The design often includes a "double bridge" (two pieces of material connecting the two eye pieces), and the frames are traditionally made from metal, though modern interpretations might use plastic or other materials. The original lenses were green in color and could block out a significant amount of light.

Zeelool Crystal frames:

Clear or translucent frames have been trendy, offering a more neutral, light look that goes with multiple outfits and suits many complexions. They're available in a range of styles from traditional shapes to more modern interpretations.

Zeelool Vintage style frames:

The trend for all things vintage has extended to eyewear too. Think tortoiseshell patterns and thick rimmed glasses, these styles bring a quirky flair to any look.

Vintage style glasses frames are a style of eyewear inspired by designs popular in previous decades or eras. "Vintage" does not necessarily mean the frames are old, instead, they are new frames with designs based on older, oftentimes mid 20th-century styles.

Zeelool Rectangle and square frames:

These lend a professional, clean look, perfect for office wear. Modern designs in these frames incorporate colors and patterns for individuality.

Rectangle frame glasses are a style of eyewear where the lenses are in a rectangular shape, and the frames are designed to follow this geometry. People with round, oval, or heart-shaped faces often find that rectangle glasses provide flattering contrast to their face's natural curves.

Square frame glasses are eyewear whose lenses are shaped as squares. They come in different styles and sizes, but the common element is the square shape of the frame that encases the lenses. The square frame typically gives the glasses a more structured and sophisticated look. These frames can have edges that are either sharp, portraying a more classic look, or rounded for a softer, more modern appearance.

These can be reading glasses, sunglasses, or simply fashion glasses with non-prescription lenses. The size of the frames can vary greatly - some people prefer large, oversized square frames, while others favor smaller, understated ones.

Square frames can be particularly flattering on people with round or oval face shapes because they add balance and make the face appear slimmer and longer, adding an angle to the soft round features.

Zeelool Multicolor frames:

Whether neon or pastel, colorful frames have become more popular. They can provide a pop of color on a neutral outfit or add extra flair to a bold ensemble.

Some frames might combine complementary colors like blue and orange or black and silver, while others may opt for a rainbow design or use of different colors on different parts of the frames—like the temples, bridge, or rim.

Remember, while these styles were trendy at one point, the fashion landscape is always evolving. It's worth exploring current trends and personal preferences to find the perfect eyeglasses that suit your unique style and personality.

A arte sincera: Mac DeMarco

Conversava com o Vitor Paiva no Baixo Gávea sobre como é raro encontrar um trabalho artístico que desprendido da preocupação de causar efeitos e impressões, e da necessidade de sedução, fosse o sumo sincero do que o artista estivesse pensando ou sentindo. A arte sincera. Pode ser difícil de alcançar, para alguns é mais impossível que para outros, mas a sinceridade não é um labirinto. A sinceridade é direta, não desvia.

Para se expressar com sinceridade é preciso coragem. E uma dose de cara de pau. Nascido no Canadá em 1990, o cantor e compositor Mac Demarco vai direto ao ponto ao escrever sobre sua vida — os momentos pesados e também os leves. Sem ficção. É aí que ele ganha, com o peito aberto constrói uma ponte sem adornos entre ele e o público. A forma, os arranjos de enfeite e a vaidade podem corromper a verdade.

Totalmente diferente do tão festejado último trabalho do Daft Punk (que por sinal é ótimo), o som de Mac é cru, econômico, um estilo que alguns podem chamar de pobre, ele usa sempre os mesmos efeitos tanto na guitarra ritmica quanto na guitarra solo, riffs simples, bateria simples e letras sucintas, sem metáforas, simbolismos, firulas. A potência de sua composição é como a fotografia de um vômito. Ele usa uma guitarra que comprou por 30 dólares canadenses e um pedal de efeitos que diz que “nenhum músico sério usaria”. Sites especializados classificam a música de Mac Demarco como slacker-rock, tipo de rock derivado do college rock nascido nos anos 80/90, que tem como principais figuras as bandas Pavement, Modest Mouse, Neutral Milk Hotel.

Lembra um pouco os trabalhos da carreira solo do John Lennon. John colocava seu rim, seu fígado, seu intestino em cada música no maravilhoso Plastic Ono Band (1970). Logo após o fim dos Beatles, ele mergulhou na terapia Primal conduzido pelo psicoterapeuta Arthur Janov. Durante quatro meses John tratou de seus traumas relacionados a infância (abondonado pelo pai, a morte da mãe). O álbum tem canções baseadas nestes traumas de infância, como na primeira canção: Mother, you had me, but I never had you (…) Father, you left me, but I never left you / I needed you, you didn’t need me / So I just got to tell you Goodbye.

Na primeira música do primeiro e único disco do Mac Demarco, 2, ele conta sobre um pai de família preparando metanfetamina na garagem de casa enquanto a mãe está cozinhando e o irmão está no balé. Logo depois vem a música ‘Freaking Out the Neighborhood’, que ele diz que fez como um pedido de desculpas para a mãe dele. Foi o seguinte, bêbado em um show, Mac caiu de bunda em cima de uma baqueta e começou a brincar criando cenas pornográficas como se estivesse enfiando a baqueta no cuzcuz. A cena foi parar no youtube e sua mãe e sua avó viram e ficaram, hum, #chateadas. I know it’s no fun / when your first son / gets up to no good / starts freaking out the neighborhood. A música mais conhecida do disco, ‘Ode to Viceroy’, ele fez para sua marca de cigarros favorita, e sobre seu hábito de fumar (que ele diz que nunca vai largar).

Até aí já está bom demais. Se você for, como eu, que está um tanto saturado de canções sobre o tema amor, sobre início e término de relacionamentos, já tem motivos de sobra pra dançar na pista. Mas é claro que a sinceridade do coração apaixonado ou ferido também iria aparecer na voz sonolenta de Mac. E mais que isso, são canções de amor divertidas, malucas, que, como ele diz, foram feitas para sua namorada, Kiki. Eles se conheceram ainda na escola e não se desgrudaram mais. É isso o que ele conta nas apresentações ao vivo enquanto faz declarações bêbadas do seu amor por ela. Num show em Barcelona, durante a música ‘Still Together’, ele chamou Kiki para o palco. Se beijaram, dançaram, se agarraram, até ele levantar ela nas suas costas e cantarem o refrão final juntos, um delírio para a porção de fãs femininas na platéia. Outra música, digamos, romântica, e uma das minhas favoritas — que vai grudar na sua cabeça -, é a sexy ‘My Kind of Woman’. Poderia aparecer nos filmes americanos dos anos 90, aqueles das sessões da tarde na TV, nas cenas do baile na escola, a declaração rasgada de amor feita com a estilosa voz cansada e charmosamente preguiçosa de Mac.

Oh baby Oh man You’re making me crazy Really driving me mad That’s all right with me It’s really no fuss As long as you’re next to me Just the two of us You’re my, my, my, my kind of woman And I’m down on my hands and knees Begging you please, baby Show me your world

Mac Demarco, logicamente, não está sozinho. Eu e Vitor passamos a noite levantando outros nomes de artistas que através da arte revelavam o interno de si, algumas vezes o lado mais oculto. Kurt Cobain, Basquiat, Pollock, Blood on the tracks (discão do Dylan), Caetano Veloso 1971 (seu primeiro disco em Londres), o filme Tarnation de Jonathan Caouette…

Este texto é só o início de um estranho ensaio que pretendo elaborar explicando muito do meu atual desinteresse pelas obras de ficção, tanto como espectador como criador, pois acredito que são menores que a vida. Tudo é menor que a vida. Mas eu divago…

Creating a look — Blue Light Sunglass — Livho

As you store around for eyeglasses, you'll see that the patterns and customizations are almost infinite! Couple this superb variety with less expensive fees, and you have no purpose now not to pair each of your appears with a complementing set of eyeglasses!

Many folks come to mind when I think about how a pair of glasses was related to their style. The primary person who comes to mind is Sally Jessy Raphael and her crimson frames. Perhaps she is the first person I consider because her eyeglasses have been the brightest, if not the most important. Her eyeglasses made any such assertion that taken by way of themselves, they represented her and what she does – communicate approximately branding!

We've talked about Indianapolis Colts place kicker Rodrigo Blankenship and his thick black frames in every other submission. He wears them weekly, and it's clear that they've become part of his branding and advertising.

Chloe Kim, Jonny Moseley, and just about each wintry weather sports player can usually be seen wearing their shades or snow goggles – each of which can be corrected to fit your imaginative and prescient prescription!

Harry Potter has a specific fashion of round-rimmed eyewear. So iconic are his glasses that they have offered infinite pairs as souvenirs and memorabilia! John Lennon wore a similarly styled pair returned in his day. Perhaps it's a British thing.

Who do you watch when you photo aviator fashion shades like Ray-Bans? Your uncle? Tom Cruise as a real aviator in the conventional movie pinnacle Gun? Speak of "traditional," I suggest, vintage, how approximately Erik Estrada in CHiPs or you already know, that different man, his accomplice? Aviator eyewear represents a fashion this is undying. They're as famous these days as they have been generations ago. I'll maintain onto mine and spot if my awesome grandkids want them.

My father watched the news the other day, or what passes for news in recent times – a panel of six visitors speak over each different. I observed a girl wearing a few wild and huge eyeglass frames. I started something approximately it, and my father answered, "Oh yeah, that's so and so, and she or he's always converting the glasses she wears." I haven't visible her since, but I'm sure there is a story about how she chooses her glasses every day – ought to it's that your desire for eyewear can be fascinating to others? I'm confident they have served as a communique piece on more than one event.

Iris Apfel is any other lover of eyeglass frames as she is usually attracted to collecting eyeglasses, even before she ever needed glasses for her vision. When she, in the end, did want eyeglasses, she took out the enormous pair from her collection and right away created an iconic search for herself. She has also lived a long time and has plenty to mention. Her ambitious desire for eyewear flawlessly suits her character!

Sandra Oh at a 2010 most desirable after celebration can be visible carrying glasses, a get dressed, and footwear of the equal colour. She accessorized so flawlessly that it's difficult to tell if the glasses are an accent to the dress or if the dress and footwear turn out to be secondary to her glasses. Her glasses balanced the accents from her footwear, and it's clear that the general look doesn't paint without the eyeglasses that she chose. The eyeglasses have been integral to the success of her outfit.

Actual human beings aren't the best ones who wear eyeglasses. I'm reminded of Jake Jarmel's eyeglasses from "The Scofflaw," the 99th episode of the Seinfeld scenario comedy collection of the 1990s. Jake changed into a boastful chunk and insisted on wearing a couple of glasses that nobody else may want. For this reason, he would supply his glasses from Malaysia; however, when his girlfriend, Elaine, was uninterested in him and desired revenge, she went out of her manner to find a pair of glasses equal to his. She sooner or later gave them to her boss, who turned into analyzing a bookshop in which Jake could see him and primary be stressed with the aid of the equal glasses and then get irritated and assault the boss for sporting "his" eyeglasses. I can admit that they were a nice pair of eyeglasses with a tortoiseshell frame.

You can't study a person in the eyes without noticing their eyewear. That's why eyeglasses are the right accessory to make a declaration! Will you choose the biggest and the boldest glasses you could find, glasses so formidable that they grow synonymous with you, like Sally Jessy Raphael and Iris Apfel? Will you match them to the outside where you locate yourself, like Chloe Kim and Jonny Moseley? Will you complement them to your outfit in any way that no person can consider your appearance without them, like Sandra Oh? Will you exchange them every day and possibly fit them for your mood for the day? Or will you select a pair that defines you and your brand so flawlessly that they grow to be undying, iconic, and instantaneous classics? What will you decide? Something it's far, we're lucky to have infinite options which are inexpensive on the subject of eyewear.
