  1. Kevin Ayers "The Confessions Of Doctor Dream - A. Irreversible Neural Damage" feat. Nico (1973)
  2. Salvation is created bij Bifrost Arts feat. Aimee Wilson
  3. Joy, Joy!!! from Bifrost Arts (feat. Devon Sproule) A few years ago Bifrost Arts made the - in my opinion - most moving Christmas album of all time. Sincerity without embellishment and pure beauty. Really have to shed a tear on this from time to time
  4. An old Czech version (1973) of Cinderella in Christmas spirit. And with a quite emancipated Cinderella!
  5. Siouxsie And The Banshees" I'l Est Né, Le Divine Enfant
  6. Siouxsie and the Banshees with Israel, live in 1980. In Israel, will they sing Happy Noel In Israel, in Israel Israel, in Israel In Israel, will they sing Happy Noel
  7. Well, there is Dutch estate as 4th of the winter places (1:01:00) in the marvelous show of Designing worlds, made and presented by Saffia Widdershins and Elrik Merlin! Don't mind my clumsy Dutch English!
  8. Marvelous and grande! This is VERY SL indeed!
  9. A foggy day in London Town from George & Ira Gershwin performed by Angelo Badalamenti (music) & David Bowie (voice).
  10. There are of course wonderful things being created in SL by builders. I would like to eulogise for that! Without them, we cannot set up our land, let's be honest. But sometimes you see things in RL that would be also wonderful in SL. Not for builders to recreate immediately, but for inspiration. Today I saw such an RL inspiration thing on the internet. Bacchanalia restaurant in London with sculptures from Damien Hirst. Picture of the restaurant feels allready SL-like to be honest. Born to be on SL! And you, fellow residents, do you have seen things in RL that could be an inspiration for SL?
  11. And a non- christmas song from the same band! Love this one also:
  12. I DONT KNOW HOW BUT THEY FOUND ME with Christmas Drag
  13. Another heroin of mine singing La Habanera from Carmen by Bizet.
  14. It's odd (or maybe not) that as a man I have more (music) heroins then heroes. Beside Siouxsie Sioux, Maria Callas, Chrissie Hynde, Nina Hagen, Patti Smith there is Nico. And what a great performace she gives here, just a few moths before her unfortunate death.
  15. If you like to bake I have a recipe. Ik bake them every year at Sint Nicolaas (December 5) and christmas. But for christmas I als make the German christmas cookies: Lebkuchen. https://www.weekendbakery.com/posts/quest-for-the-best-speculaas/ https://www.supergoldenbakes.com/lebkuchen-recipe/
  16. Got it! I contacted them and they had just added the Potion tree at marketplace!
  17. Here is a picture I took of Dutch estate where you can clearly see that the footpath along the canal at the yard is one level below street level. I based that on the canals in Utrecht, my city in RL (second picture, so this is NOT Amsterdam 😉). There are still many differences. In RL it is a canal in a city, in SL it is a canal around a villa in the countryside. In RL the trees are not at street level but are down at yard level and there are footpaths on either side of the canal. I have tried both in my land but neither work well. So we keep on trying! It is a work in progress.
  18. Speaking of peeves. Many of you know what it is like to show SL on a big screen to a non-SL user. "You have to be a little patient. We must wait a while before everything is visible, it's called 'rezzing." "Hm, that's taking a long time now. Let's start with walking anyway. Believe me, it looks really great and the white things you see now have beautiful colours in real." "That thing that looks like a skeleton in the distance is an old mill. As we come closer you will see it's a mill indeed." "Those giant car wash brushes are snowflakes. it now looks like you are walking through a white wall, but wait a minute and you will see it's actually very pretty." "It's all slow like sirup in a cold cellar, I guess all my neighbours are home." "What do you mean by 'Second Life is a retarded game? Firstly, it's no game and secondly, you HAVE to believe me, SL is wonderful!"
  19. As for non traditional trees, I saw on a christmas market the potion tree from Krescendo (a tree with different coloured elixers in glass tubes), but the market is gone and the tree is not to be found at marketplace or their shop. I wish I bought it now at the market! I will write them because now I want that tree 😄 PS: found a picture of it from their Flickr page.
