Exciting times as I completely forgot about it 🙈 Thank you very much for this wonderful surprise🎄🎅🏻 Merry christmas!

No idea why it didn't show when I checked before I asked, but I found it now. Thank you very much!

Are the matches sent out yet?

when your 5 year old (german) wants you to play her a music video "... you know, where the boy sings sometimes softly, sometimes loud ..." ... how much better can you described "something just like this"? :p

my parcel just got returned to sender :(

Thank you! I don't know how the postal service there is, so lets wait and see and hope it gets there one day ... you are right, it has to travel a very long way.

So pretty much every song ;)

I know how you feel, also still waiting for a message here

and it got even better, thank you Petra :kissing_heart:

besides seeing my kids while we decorate the tree and make things like candied almonds, it's the best part for me :)

whatever it is, i love it :)

this is a picture from Frankfurt, looks simular to me, but as I said, I am relativly new to all of this

Wasn't the butterfly confetti used during the AHFOD tour? I am sure it's the same ones ... but since I am only "infected" since the 30.6.2017, I wouldn't even know

So excited, i just got mail :kissing_heart: Merry Christmas!

I do while driving a car, which doesn't happen very often and usually just for short distances. Funny enough when I started the car earlier, Paradise was playing on the radio :p

really? i know a lot of people that have the same effect once the song becomes popular and will be played on the radio about every hour hate is a very strong word, i guess getting bored and not wanting to listen to it describes it better, so usually i start changing radio stations ... but as i said before, i am not that much into music anyway, so maybe that's the reason why

I am afraid that's what this song sounded to me like for many many years, only changed my mind about it after I saw it performed live, but it's still not my favourite. Catchy yes, but if overplayed on the radio also very annoying.

Keep that attitude for a lot of things in your life and it will get a lot easier ... everybody is entitled to their own likes, dislikes and opinions. How often I ended a discussion with "Let's agree to disagree" before there was a serious damage in the relationship to a person I really like and would like to be in my life. Not worth giving that up over something you might have an opinion on, but can't change somebody else's thinking anyway ... at least in my opinion.

How do you know he got money at all and if so, what happened with it? It might as well have been an agreement for a donation towards a charity ... or if not, somebody getting paid for work they did. Nothing wrong with that in my opinion, at least I am glad that happens to me every day ;) At the end of the day I don't know what the agreement was, but I don't have to as it's none of my personal business ...

Well done, it will get better with every single drive. Funny enough this song is kind of an anti-anxiety song for me, no matter how bad the mood, that song on the radio (or sung by my 4-year-old german speaking daughter, which is actually the more hilarious version) will take the edge away ... so maybe just listen to it before your next lesson

I know exactly what you mean! I was never one that listened to music unless I was in the car and the radio was playing as background noise. But I remember my husband (big into music) mentioned during the first ever performance of One Direction on the british X Factor that it is a Coldplay song and that they are known to be one of the live performance around ... years later I hear on the radio that the tickets for the concert in Frankfurt will be soon on sale, happen to remember when that sale was gonna start and actually got two really nice tickets, so I bought them as a surprise for my husband. I basically knew Paradise as one of the most annoying songs on the radio and cause enough to change stations and Viva La Vida from the One Direction performance. My husband was trying to chat about who Coldplay is while being in the stadium before the concert started, asking me what the names of the lead singers kids are ... and I was like: How would I know? I don't even know who the lead singer is. ... He then mentioned the marriage with Gwyneth Paltrow ... which then made me remember about this conscious uncoupling story and remembering Apple as the name of the girl, but could only guess you would probably name your second one Banana, if you name the first one Apple ... The opening bands finished playing and instead of starting earlier, which we were told via mail beforehand, Coldplay was starting at the regular time ... 45 minutes of Mexican wave in the stadium and a fantastic atmosphere plus an amazing concert to follow is surely something I will never ever forget ... and as you said, it somehow changed my life.

In all fairness, they both finally get a chance to talk with Chris not being there :joy:

:joy::joy::joy::p

when you send your 4-year-old to bring something downstairs and while coming back you suddenly and out of the blue you hear her sing: i'm reading books of old, the legends and the myths, the testaments they told, ... brains are amazing, i haven't heard that song in month now

Ha ... thank you! I never even thought about that :)
