Aaahhh Santa, are You not pleased that there are still really caring Secret Santa's?

Yess, it was!! :blush: How could I forget! Sorry!

My Secret Santa posted a message for me and told me that my package is on its way for a (very) long time now. I was SO excited reading that message - almost as excited as when I actualy recieving the card ~ I think :smug: I have learned that the Dutch customs can hold a package for a VERY long time, so I patiently wait, knowing now that something is coming this way and also knowing that my Secret Santa cares :rolleyes: And that is such a good (Christmas) feeling So thank you for the message Secret Santa!!

Yes, this is what I mean. Thanks!

I really LOVE the LOTR trillogy, I watched the extended versions countless times. I saw The Hobbit in 3D once (my first 3D ever :embarrassed:) and it will stay that way until a normal version comes out. Don't get me wrong: The Hobbit is all I expected it to be and i just love it too! But: is it just me - or are more people here not liking 3D movies? I didn't like the (havey) glasses, didn't like to see/read subtitles, I think the movie/screen that I saw was NOT sharp (don't know the Englisch word) to look at...it is just not my cup of tea...

It is all about the feel some-one is getting when hearing a song. My son is 9 and he loves Coldplay for all his life, where his classmates go for Justin B :D My son does not speak English (just a little maybe) so he does not understand the lyrics. He loves the melodys, the insturments, the rhythms. He just say: "the music is beautifull". Simpy as that. He is starting to play guitar and piano; he is inspired to make music - or whatever I can name his tryings ;) I think it is great that so many people -young ánd older- can love the music of Coldplay.

Thanks for the review, loved to read it! I missed the vote-option for the worldwide Live2012 streaming. I am still getting goosebumps remembering that evening....

Hi Paloma, welcome and have fun!

just

Hij is weer begonnen!! En we gaan weer luisteren - het wordt weer een heerlijke tijd tot nieuwjaar :) De Top 2000 met.....Coldplay!!!:

Thank you for the lovely tree Thalia - it is amazing! Merry Christmas everyone :santa2: :santa:

Thanks Joana, its GREAT!

Welcome Enrico! Enjoy the forum! Thanks for the song/tribute; I like it, you both did a god job. I listen a lot to this wonderful christmas song and it's fun to hear different performers of the same song (there is also a choir hear who is singing it acapella on this forum - and that is lovely to listen too).

This is a great thread!! Thanks! Our RAOK: me and my sons baking little cup-cakes and then selling them at a christmass-event in our neighbourhood. Just to collect money for a little Dutch child (3) who has a rare kind of cancer. He needs an (expansive) therapy in the USA afther his chemo-therapy.

My name is Anita :) Maybe it is not totaly perfect in a "musical" way, but I know why we still think it is lovely and 'perfect' in all the other way's! It is the (your) drive to make a song like this; the passion to complete the mission, to get other choir members so far that they believe in it too, the feeling of singing a COLDPLAY (!!!) song, the beautiful music of Christmas Lights etc. It is perfect in so many ways, don't feel ashamed! Count your blessings and have a merry Christmas together *hug*

I feel like a new era is starting up today....really!! Does anyone have that feeling too? Or am I a bit early??

I hope the cinema is still there tonight - we will go out to see it too!!

Hey...the light IS comming - that's all I care of :P

This is SO lovely to hear - what a great job did you do! The choir is really enjoying singing this song. I love it!! Chapeau!

Looks like a little Shelob to me? :confused: How many have you seen? :D
