Song: The Heart Asks Pleasure First (Michael Nyman)

Association: The woman in the skiff, dumb yet very beautiful, who had lost her fingers for the sake of her passion on the piano, suddenly winds the rope of the piano, which has been sinking into the sea, round her foot. She and her piano, looking like a happy couple, are now in the sea.

Place: An island surrounded by the greenish sea.

another thread with cyrano's rambling and fantasizing when he gets high...? :-S :-S

Song - Chiquitita (ABBA)

Association - A little girl is standing by the fire, keeping an eye on the horizon where the sun has been setting, as if there were no yesterday, and no tomorrow at all; her own tearful eyes tell she feels deeply alone - no friends, no playthings. Ah- she suddenly realized the tree behind her, and is beginning to smile now.

Place - a hill with grass on which rays of the sun fall generously.

jesus christ! you are responding to yourself! let's wait and see how the story unfolds... - see what else you fantasize about (dumb yet very beautiful girl [READ: 'half-naked'] !!! - I told you he's a perv...). you do make me laugh hun, though I also feel like you're on something half of the time .

or maybe its mental illness let's not make hasty decisions eh catwoman or risk offending political correctness

Song - Hi-Lili Hi-Lo (Anne Murray)

Association - "Gimme back my toy baby", is saying Robyn to catwoman, "it is a very special gift dad gave me." "oh, really? Then I won't share my playthings with you" replies catwoman. And thus start both pulling hair of each other and then cry loudly. "Mam! Mam! Help! Catwoman has pulled my hair! See my tears!" "But...but, Mrs.Brown, she pulled mine as well. And see also my tears."

Place - a child room, full of toys, the walls of which are pink, blue, red, green and yellow.

Song - Eternity Theme (Eleni Karaindrou)

Association - Whereas we all would be able to live happily together, with such a love and fraternity that no-one would desire wars, blood, and poverty; nor would make profit from them; and no-one would cause troubles, misfortunes, sorrows, and tears; and no countries, no borders, no skin-colors, and no identity cards we would create; and we would no longer suffer from any thing, living like children- the children who fly their multicoloured kites in the blue sky. For doesn't human life last, at most, a hundred years while love and fraternity lasts Eternity and a Day?

Place - A beach with cottony sands, which the peaceful waves lick up stubbornly.

Song- Lili Marlene (Marlene Dietrich)

Association-

- it is now time for me to leave, I think.. the train is about to move..
- that soon?..there is still time..
- nothing is too soon for death, we both know this..

- but..but I am going to the front!.and most probably I will die!..
- you won't.. cos I will be waiting for you..sshhh..stop crying..
- Lily!.Lily!..I am..I am afraid of the war, of dying, Lily!.
- Sshhh..it is ok.. now be a man and stop it..you won't die..
- I say..I will die..I know..I feel this..
- won't you kiss me?..
- I will..and don't you feel death will kiss me there.. for the first and last time?

Place - A train station the platform of which is full of young lovers whose all men are soldiers.

Song - La Valse D'Amelie (Yann Tiersen)

Association - Life is beautiful, and I am very pleased to have come into the world.

Place - A forgotten bank at the largest square of the city, in which nobody sits but by which everybody passes without noticing.

Song - Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast (Pink Floyd)

Association - I defy anyone to assert breakfast is not the merriest meal of the day!

Place - A rural garden in a sunny morning.

I must say that I really like your associations and reflections (EXCEPT the sexist one with the dumb/yet 'beautiful' girl!!!), although some of them are a bit gloomy..

Thank you but this woman is in fact "dumb yet beautiful".

It is now actually me who have been appalled! I wonder how admin can manage his relation with such a feminist girl like you and how he can bear you! What does the tragedy of the woman's life to do my finding her beautiful? (She is already dumb.) Whether the film portrays a tragedy of a woman's life or how a woman discovers her sexuality or sexual instincts, I was and am taking no interest in these points in my related post. (Please re-read it.) Simply I did adore and do adore her along with her passion on the piano; I fell in love with her, and she was my one of my early loves.

But keep labeling me as pervert- it is fine. I do believe she wouldn't judge me the way you do.

Song - Don't Cry for me Argentina (Joan Baez)

Association - How odd! There are cases that nothing changes when you replace something with another. This song is a good example of such cases. Chile and Turkey springs to mind at once. Military coup d'etats, murders, lost people, tortures, pains, tears... Don't Cry for me Chile... Don't Cry for me Turkey...

Place - A city square at sunset whose surface is covered with the dead.

Song - Nothing Left At All (The Cranberries)

Association - Simple, very very simple songs I sometimes enjoy listening to. Lyrics must be simple and plain; so is melody, with only few chords or notes - namely, monophonic. I can't stand listening to polyphonic music all the time, though I like that kind of music so much. Who would enjoy listening to, for example, Beethoven's 9th Symphony all of the time? Simple songs such as this one I derive pleasure in listening to, beyond this interests me not. Mmmm.... Oh no is there any reason I should walk away,
Is it wrong, is it wrong to want to stay

Place - A windy boulevard where one would deeply feel cold along with music.

Song - Clandestino (Manu Chao)

Association - Fugitives of the world, unite!

Place -

I don't know all of these songs, but I do know most, and these random associations are quite brilliant and also witty. Everyone must agree...!!!

Thank you very much, christine, for your nice words. You made me blush.
