We all need a time and place to let lose and here it is for our little corner of the RDI universe... Post whatever you want here (so long as it won't get us in trouble of course) and just have fun with it ;)

I'll get us started with some pictures being shared around Facebook. They made me laugh so I figured I'd share them here.

It's funny 'cause it's true ;)



If you ever saw Tangled you might enjoy this one...

And last of all I bring to you... Thor's secret.

Thanks to my sister of the heart for remembering me when ever she finds these things. LOL

So Avril recently married Chad Kroeger from Nickelback - congratulations to them! They'll make wonderfully talented musical genius babies I hope... Gotta think of the next generation and all ;)

Anyways, this is a song that I always loved and respected Nickelback so much for doing. I have the lyrics because the words really spoke to me. But if you want the very beautiful high impact video, please click!


If Everyone Cared Video Link


"If Everyone Cared"

From underneath the trees, we watch the sky
Confusing stars for satellites
I never dreamed that you'd be mine
But here we are, we're here tonight

Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive


If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died

And I'm singing

Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive
Amen I, Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive

And in the air the fireflies
Our only light in paradise
We'll show the world they were wrong
And teach them all to sing along

Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
(I'm alive)



And as we lie beneath the stars
We realize how small we are
If they could love like you and me
Imagine what the world could be

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
When nobody died...



We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day when nobody died

Been getting a whole lot of inspiration from music recently. Lightning struck when I heard this song called Radioactive. Given the intensity of the song I was not all too surprised to find numerous good versions of it on youtube. First link is the original song, done by Imagine Dragons, and I found it set to a cool montage video so check it out.

Imagine Dragons - Radioactive

Here are two of my favorite covers. Macy Kate is an impressive singer, her voice conveys great strength. And if you haven't heard of Lindsey Stirling... definitely click on that video. Want to talk about inspiring? Click, then look her up on youtube. lol

I recommend Orson Scoot Card. Enders Game is coming out in the movies soon, read the book first, I command you! Wishing can make it so... LOL

I figured I might as well use this bit of persuasive media for something ;)

That thread ended up BEAUTIFUL but one question... What's next??? ::screams to the skies as she falls to her knees:: Where are Drake and Kyra?!

But I thought I could help share a little inspiration with a touch of the dark side. Check out this new... lovely... song. Someone we all know being oh too sexy. Caution - This might give you naughty thoughts! Don't click if you are prone to losing yourself in the music!

Bad Girl

(Rose is already lost so no worries there.)

And bada bing bada BAM! Love Elements, I mean that chick is on FIRE in that one! Have I got a treat for you. This girl is a friggin' force of nature!

The list goes on and on. She's fun and tis crazy what the little dancing violin girl can do. She's definitely most... talented. Perfect fantasy dream gal, glad to offer up a lil' taste ;)

So the talented and young miss Macy Kate, did one of the versions of Radioactive I posted way back, was on a show called Rising Star last summer and did this lovely cover:

Macy Kate "Demons" Live

A lot more powerful live but here's a full version with lyrics I thought would be appropriate per Rose...

Macy Kate -Demons by Imagine Dragons lyrics



Then I have to recognize my muse for this character for going and making a truly spectacular music video - instant classic! The entire thing is full of references that should give everyone a smile. Strap in, it's a fun ride and Avril even gets a kiss with Winnie Cooper! God bless those ladies and merry Christmas to all!

Avril Lavigne - Rock N Roll

I know I haven't had a chance to post yet... But I'm so happy to have the Isle of Rose moved here. These pitiful so called angels have been pretty lost without their home and Sandrine's got a wife and kid to think about so... yay for that! Also can't wait to play and meet more people from the board.

I see a lot of possibilities and powerful characters! I saw this song with this rather epic video to go along and it seems to belong right.... here. Made me think of a lot of what has passed... and what is yet to come.

Lacuna Coil - Losing My Religion - GMV


R.E.M. LYRICS
"Losing My Religion"

Oh life, it's bigger
It's bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no, I've said too much
I've said enough

That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, I've said too much
I haven't said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

Every whisper
Of every waking hour
I'm choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt, lost and blinded fool, fool
Oh no, I've said too much
I've said enough

Consider this
Consider this, the hint of the century
Consider this, the slip
That brought me to my knees, failed
What if all these fantasies come
Flailing around
Now I've said too much

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream

That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, I've said too much
I haven't said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
Try, cry, why try
That was just a dream
Just a dream
Just a dream, dream

Happy Valentine's Day

In This Moment - Scarlet

In This Moment
"Scarlet"

You - you?re everything I want
And I - I?m everything you need
This night is cutting into me
You tie me down
You watch me bleed
And we risk everything tonight

I, I am the misery you crave
And you, you are my faithful enemy
This hunger seems to feed on me
A sacred sin
A dying breed
And we risk everything

They can never know just what we?ve done
They can never know just what we?ve done
They will never know all the blood we?ve shed
The scarlet cross we bear until the bitter end
And they, they can never know just what we?ve done

Nothing good will come of this
I?m screaming out with my last aching breath
I?ll be yours until my dying day
But I can never see you

We, we knew how this would end
And we knew we?d die before we lived
But I?ll never let you go
I?ll never let you go

They will never know all the blood we shed
The scarlet cross we bear until the bitter end
And they, they can never know just what we?ve done
I will never let you go
They can never know just what we?ve done
I will never let you go

We knew how this would end

What a perfect song for some Kenshin....



Ruroni Kenshin AMV Disturbed-Believe



Disturbed - Believe lyrics

Believe, when you lie
You will never need to recognize yourself
To deceive
To remove all chance of doubt and be received
With your lie
The deception is complete when you concede
And decide
To reject your lives, sacrificed to me

Penance can't absolve your sin, into me
Penance can't absolve your sin
All your belief cannot absolve your sin
All your belief cannot absolve your sin

Believe, when you lie
You will never need to recognize the source
Of deceit
To renew your faith in God
You must believe, in your lie
The redemption is complete when you conceive
And decline
To release your lives
Sacrificed to me

Penance can't absolve your sin, into me
Penance can't absolve your sin
All your belief cannot absolve your sin
All your belief cannot absolve your sin

Reap your life, like you want to recognize, all you've come to
Reap your life, like you want to recognize, all you've come to

Reap your life
Veiled in shadow
Recognize
Faces of the crucified
I can hear their screams tonight
Ever haunting me

Burn your lie into me

Penance can't absolve your sin, into me
Penance can't absolve your sin
All your belief cannot absolve your sin
All your belief cannot absolve your sin
All your belief cannot absolve your sin
All your belief cannot absolve your sin
All your belief cannot absolve your sin

"And here I am, watching the clock that's ticking away my time... but I'm too numb to feel right now."

The Pretty Reckless - Just Tonight

"Just Tonight"

Here we are and I can't think from all the pills, hey
Start the car and take me home
Here we are and you're too drunk to hear a word I say
Start the car and take me home

Just tonight I will stay
And we'll throw it all away
When the light hits your eyes
It's telling me I'm right
And if I, I am through
Then it's all because of you
Just tonight

Here I am and I can't seem to see straight
But I'm too numb to feel right now
And here I am watching the clock that's ticking away my time
I'm too numb to feel right now

Just tonight I will stay
And we'll throw it all away
When the light hits your eyes
It's telling me I'm right
And if I, I am through
Then it's all because of you
Just tonight

Just tonight

Do you understand who I am?
Do you wanna know?
Can you really see through me now?
I'm about to... go...

But just tonight I won't leave
And I'll lie and you'll believe
Just tonight I will see
It's all because of me

Just tonight I will stay
And we'll throw it all away
When the light hits your eyes
It's telling me I'm right
And if I, I am through
Then it's all because of you
Just tonight

(Do you understand who I am?)
It's all because of you
Just tonight
(Do you understand who I am?)
It's all because of you
Just tonight
(Do you understand who I am?)
It's all because of you
Just tonight
(Do you understand who I am?)
It's all because of you
Just tonight
