Title: Un Autre Vendredi (Another Friday)
Post by: Anguille on July 01, 2022, 02:43:59 AM
A classic french rock song from 1984:



Here's a video hundreds of musicians playing the same song many many years later.



Had no time to play anything the last 2-3 weeks...

Not sure what i'll play but maybe some Interstellar Space Genesis to start with...

Have a good weekend guys.

Very unique Friday thread.  What is the autre monde (another world) that he is singing about?

I just discovered two mods for Napoleon Total War that I want to try out.

BoC work, CMO, and Grand Tactician.  COntinuing to get my butt kicked in FoG and FoG Medieval tournaments.  And I foolishly joined the Combat Mission-Cold War tournament, so I need to take play around with it a bit before commencing my whupping in that. ;D

Je rêvais d'un autre monde
Où la terre serait ronde
Où la lune serait blonde
Et la vie serait féconde
Je dormais à poings fermés
Je ne voyais plus en pieds
Je rêvais réalité
Ma réalité
Je rêvais d'une autre terre
Qui resterait un mystère
Une terre moins terre à terre
Oui je voulais tout foutre en l'air
Je marchais les yeux fermés
Je ne voyais plus mes pieds
Je rêvais réalité
Ma réalité ma réalité
Oui je rêvais de notre monde
Et la terre est bien ronde
Et la lune est si blonde
Ce soir dansent les ombres du monde
À la rêver immobile
Elle m'a trouvé bien futile
Mais quand bouger l'a faite tou



Playing Old World and watching Giro Donne & Tour de France.

Will most likely put aside the Old World Heroes of the Aegean campaign for now in favor of a big ol' honkin' Persia sandbox game, and will be starting a Rome 2 Total War Divide en Imperia campaign as Ptolemaic Egypt. On 'easy' difficulty :/

Happy July 4th to my fellow American peeps.

A grudging happy 4th of July to the ex colonials out there. Some folk just dont know when they have it good  ;)

Lots more Strategic Command ACW MP and SP this weekend if I can dodge standing orders from my beloved.

Still chugging along with World of Warships / Tanks but am getting a ping issue that makes playing (well, tanks at any rate) difficult.

Otherwise, it's racing time with Wreckfest and DiRT and sweating to death while working in the yard outside.

Stay cool and hydrated, folks!
