Somethings are said without words, others with words you don’t understand… yet, you can enjoy and say them without understanding them completely, like this song (for me at least) 
ps: though make-up can add a glamarous effect indeed, it certainly isn’t needed. 
Once a Single Man’s Dream…
…And 45 Years Later…
Kind of gives you hope doesn’t it?
Now here’s one cool site: Animoto
I’ve just been there for less then 5min and I got this done in no time:
I had this music stuck on my head, playing in the background, for the past 3 days … (English translation is by me, and not sure if it catches all the subtle nuances of the original Portuguese version)
Recebi o teu bilhete — I received your note
para ir ter ao jardim, — to meet you at the garden,
a tua caixa de segredos — the box with your secrets
queres abri-la para mim — you want to open it up for me
e tu não vais fraquejar, –and you won’t back down,
ninguem vai saber de nada; — nobody will know of it;
juro não me vou gabar, — I promise I won’t gloat,
a minha boca é sagrada. — my mouth will be sealed.
estar mesmo atras de ti, — being right behind you,
ver-te da minha carteira, — watching you from my desk,
sei de cor o teu cabelo, — I know your hair by heart,
sei o shampoo a que cheira… — I know the smell of your shampoo…
já nao como, já nao durmo — I no longer eat, neither do I sleep
e eu caia se te minto! — And may I fall if I lie!
havera gente informada — maybe there are people who will know
se é amor isto que eu sinto? — if it is love, this, that I feel?
Quero o meu primeiro beijo, — I want my first kiss,
não quero ficar impune, — I don’t want to be left out,
e dizer-te cara a cara: — and to tell you face to face:
“muito mais é o que nos une — “much more is what bind us
que aquilo que nos separa!” — then the things that splits us apart!”
Promete lá outro encontro, — Promise me another date,
foi tão fogaz que nem deu — it was so flimsy, not enough,
para ver como era o fogo — I wanna see how is the fire
que a tua boca prometeu. — that your mouth promised me.
pensava que a tua lingua — I had though that your tongue
sabia a flor do jasmim, — tasted like the jasmine flower,
sabe a chicla de mentol — after all it taste like mint gum
e eu gosto dela assim! — and I like it just as it is!
Quero o meu primeiro beijo, — I want my first kiss,
não quero ficar impune, — I don’t want to be left out,
e dizer-te cara a cara: — and to tell you face to face:
“muito mais é o que nos une — “much more is what bind us
que aquilo que nos separa!” — then the things that splits us apart!”

Just because its too darn hot…
Ya got to love ‘Coupling’ 
Three lovely songs that carry lots of meaning and emotions with them, each for their very own reason…
Both meant something to me and still do and they just, in some way, represent this world we call Second Life, where tiny bits of dust are taken away by the wind all around the world, moments are fledgling, time an illusion. Where tiny pieces of your life add up, one by one, building something you can’t really comprehend; partly your own creation, mostly shaped by others, just as you do to others as well, knowingly or unknowingly. All in all, its all just a beautiful lie… one we choose to accept, or not.
Thus is the “game”… but is real life any different?
Kansas – Dust in the Wind
I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment’s gone
All my dreams, pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind
Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do, crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind
Don’t hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away, all your money won’t another minute buy
Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind
Editors – The Weight of The World
Keep a light on those you love
They will be there when you die
Baby there’s no need to fear
Baby there’s no need to cry
Every little piece in your life
Will add up to one
Every little piece in your life
Will it mean something to someone?
You’ve used my broken bones
Back together we …?
Lift the weight of the world
From my shoulders again
Every little piece in your life
Will add up to one
Every little piece in your life
Will it mean something to someone?
Every little piece in your life
Will add up to one
Every little piece of your life
Will mean something to someone
You touch my face
God whispers In my ear
There are tears in my eyes
Love replaces fear
You touch my face
God whispers In my ear…
There are tears in my eyes
Love replaces fear
Every little piece in your life
Will add up to one
Every little piece in your life
Will mean something to someone
Every little piece in your life
Will add up to one
Every little piece of your life
Will mean something to someone
30 Seconds to Mars – A Beautiful Lie
Lie awake in bed at night
And think about your life
Do you want to be different?
Try to let go of the truth
The battles of your youth
Cuz this is just a game
It’s a beautiful lie
It’s the perfect denial
Such a beautiful lie to believe in
So beautiful, beautiful it makes me
It’s time to forget about the past
To wash away what happened last
Hide behind an empty face
Don’t ask too much, just say
That this is just a game
Everyone’s looking at me
I’m running around in circles, baby
A quiet desperation’s building higher
I’ve got to remember this is just a game
So beautiful, beautiful…
