making progress with my 'carpe diem collection'

The internet can be weird at times! Imagine having about 90 visitors per day who enter without knocking, possibly plunder your fridge, and leave without a word. You may never see them again, you may never ever hear anything from them or about them again. I'm referring to the visitors of my homepage http://bernd-harmsen.de There are only about eight or ten visitors to my blog on overblog.de or MySpace per day who click blog entries directly, but since these entries are also included in my homepage I cannot actually tell who takes note of what.

Anyway, a while ago I announced that I would gather lyrics and songs for a special 'carpe diem collection', a collection that would deal with my - and many many other's - personal credo. I actually do know that once in a while someone searched for corresponding entries (the overblog statistics reveal that much). So, whoever that is, here's the good news: I am making progress. I have decided on the lyrics that will be included, I classified them(!), and I even copied them into a Word document. All that remains to be done is putting a little more order into them, adding comments, and do a little formatting. I should get that done in a couple of weeks(!).

The lyrics that will be included are:

about living elsewhere, bathing in sunlight, be a star, by the seven seas, close your eyes, dancing in the rain, dancing through the light, farewell, fuck being cool, how does it feel?, in the wink of an eye, it's all there, keep rockin', leaving traces, let's party and get on bad, listen to the river, look forward, lost in space, love on the dance floor, no future – no past, no more, one of seven billion, pastures new, peaceful times, sooner or later, stand by yourself, summer night, terminal disease, the sound of nations, Vanity, virtuality, when there's nothing else, you're perfect

Nearly all have been published in former collections. "In the wink of an eye", "leaving traces", and "Bathing in sunlight" are new, though. The latter is still a bit wet behind the ears.
