R&P: Is there a song that you think perfectly sums up your philosophy on life?

For me it's Heaven and Hell by Black Sabbath, especially those last two verses.

They say that life's a carousel

Spinning fast, you've got to ride it well

The world is full of Kings and Queens

Who blind your eyes and steal your dreams

It's Heaven and Hell, oh well

And they'll tell you black is really white

The moon is just the sun at night

And when you walk in golden halls

You get to keep the gold that falls

It's Heaven and Hell

So what song describes your view on life?

BQ: Now playing?

Too Late by Black Sabbath

BQ2: Do any have you have a good foreign/non-English language film you think I would enjoy? I'm open to all types of films.

BQ3: On occasion I've seen users talk about how boring R&P has become. Do you think this is true, and if so what do you think the reason is?

    For me it would be Lateralus by Tool

    I embrace my desire to

    feel the rhythm, to feel connected

    enough to step aside and weep like a widow

    to feel inspired, to fathom the power,

    to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain,

    to swing on the spiral

    of our divinity and still be a human.

    With my feet upon the ground I lose myself

    between the sounds and open wide to suck it in,

    I feel it move across my skin.

    I'm reaching up and reaching out,

    I'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me.

    And following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been.

    We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been.

    Spiral out. Keep going, going...

    BQ: Disposition by Tool

    BQ2: Pans Labyrinth

    BQ3: Nah, this section always provides me with something to do whenever i'm bored.

    "What's So Funny About Peace, Love, and Understanding" by Elvis Costello. There just something about the lyrics mixed with his bitter cynicism that I can really relate to, though I'm sure anyone living in the modern world could relate to it as well.

    BQ: "Johnny Appleseed" - Joe Strummer

    BQ2: The Seventh Seal

    BQ3: I think we just need more people to ask good/entertaining questions (like this one).

    BQ3: I don't think R&P is as good as it used to be. However, I still enjoy coming here. I just think people need to keep asking asking interesting questions.
