It was nice to listen to Charles Aznavour and to read the translation at the same time. Actually, a very good one to one French/English rendering.
And it is nice to see you post again.
Ah - the memory of times and places long gone - the memories of a youth long past. Protect your memories they're all that's left you!
Well that was quite interesting :)
Ah yes - that man's voice gives me goose bumps - glad to have you back!
We all lament our lost youth...eventually.
Hmm this is interesting :)
Youth is never lost.
Decide what age you want to be and stay there :)
La Boheme is a carefree life full of love life and promise. This must never be lost, like the old man river, that just keeps rollin along :)
