This song and video gives me the same happiness that i experience when i listen to disco music.
Watch the beautiful woman in the middle. She is LOVING EVERY MINUTE.
It truly would have been amazing to have lived in this era.
Watch the entire thing - the dance break is unbearable.
If you don't know what original swagger is, go to 4:20...

Someone's Missing
I love when songs have surprises.
a surprise is a moment or an element in a song that gives you happiness even if you don't feel like smiling - but most of the time, you will anyways because you just can't contain all the goodness that arises within you.
... these surprise moments make me forget the world around me
-- and make me turn into a dancing fool.
because
i'm too busy completely zoned out to the song.
i close my eyes and it feels like the sun is inside of me.
this song has one of those "surprise" moments:
it's best to listen to the entire song so you don't spoil the surprise.

Wuthering Heights
Have you ever read a book in any English class that you absolutely DREADED reading, and then after you finished it, realized that you actually really enjoyed it?
This happened to me when i read Wuthering Heights in my grade twelve English class. It can be quite boring because of the old style language that it is written in, but the story itself is wonderful. Here is one of my favourite quotes from the novel written by Emily Bronte:
This happened to me when i read Wuthering Heights in my grade twelve English class. It can be quite boring because of the old style language that it is written in, but the story itself is wonderful. Here is one of my favourite quotes from the novel written by Emily Bronte:
My great miseries in this world have been Heathcliff's miseries, and I have watched and felt each from the beginning; my great thought in living is himself.
If all else perished, and he remained, I should continue to be; and, if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the Universe would turn to a mighty stranger.
I should not seem a part of it. My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woods. Time will change it, I'm well aware, as winter changes the trees -
my love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rock beneath - a source of little visible delight, but necessary.
He's always, always in my mind - not as a pleasure, any more than i am always a pleasure to myself,
but as my own being.
Love has been defined in MILLIONS of ways and I really enjoy the approach Emily Bronte took here. She talks about two kinds of love, and i'm going to go ahead and make up my own names for these two different kinds of love.
There is lust-love and love-love.
LUST-LOVE can be found with many things, at many times during your life.
LOVE-LOVE can only be found once.
Emily Bronte describes this love-love into words that leave me breathless - for stones are solid and circular, representing eternity. Love-love lasts forever. Love-Love makes you feel more alive as a human being more than anything else ever has in your past and ever will.
I LOVE LOVE-LOVE, DON'T YOU!?
