Here, in the Southern hemisphere we're enjoying a wonderful day. It's sunny and warm and the city is full of teenagers celebrating the arrival of Spring and also, student's day.
Spring is a time of hope, of new beginnings and this is the best song I could find about it. Listen, read and enjoy!

Another red letter day, So the pound has dropped and the children are creating, The other half ran away, Taking all the cash and leaving you with the lumber, Got a pain in the chest, Doctors on strike what you need is a rest
It's not easy love, but you've got friends you can trust, Friends will be friends, When you're in need of love they give you care and attention, Friends will be friends, When you're through with life and all hope is lost, Hold out your hand cos friends will be friends right till the end
Now it's a beautiful day, The postman delivered a letter from your lover, Only a phone call away, You tried to track him down but somebody stole his number, As a matter of fact, You're getting used to life without him in your way
It's so easy now, cos you got friends you can trust, Friends will be friends, When you're in need of love they give you care and attention, Friends will be friends, When you're through with life and all hope is lost, Hold out your hand cos friends will be friends (right till the end)
Spring is here!! And here's a positive message for this very special time: "No matter how long the winter, spring is sure to follow." ~Proverb Hope you have a nice beginning of this beautiful season.
In Argentina, we celebrate Friends' Day on July 20th. I've been trying to find songs about friends and found many that we've heard quite a lot. Here's a different version from The Beatles' classic: "With a little help from my friends"
In Argentina, we celebrate Father's Day on the third Sunday of June. While trying to find a song on the topic I remembered this wonderful oldie, originally by Cat Stevens. This is a newer version by Boyzone. Can you think of any other song about fathers? If so, please let me know.
In this one, the father gives the son some recommendations for the future. What about your father? What's the best recommendation you remember from him? You can share your ideas here.
Listen to this beautiful song from the film "Invictus". The name of the song is "Colorblind". What does it mean? You can read the lyrics while you listen to the song.
Colorblind - Overtone
And it's not just a game You can't throw me away I put all I had on the line And I give and you take And I played the high stakes I've won and I've lost But, I'm fine
Hear me say I'll wise up 'til the end Hear me say I'll stand up for my friends And I crash to the ground And it's just my own sound I drop in the blink of an eye I'm colorblind
And your milky way fight Won't stop my delight You keep me and lock me away And it's dark and it's bright It's your colorful pride that kept me here 9000 days
Hear me say I'll see the sky again Hear me say I'll drive for you my friend There's a noise in the crowd But it's just my own shout A stumble I fall and I pray
Hear you say your eyes see green again In the end we'll lived up holding hands Yes, we'll spark in the night We'll be colorblind And these are the lives we gave
(I can't understand this part... Something about peace and freedom...)
Hear me say I'll wise up 'til the end Hear me say that I'll stand beside my friends I won't stay on the floor I will settle the score A stumble I fall and I pray
Hear me say it's time we stop talking Eye to eye we see a different face (faith?) Yes we we've conquered the war With love at the core A stumble I fall, but I'll stay Colorblind.
