I'm burning the candle at both ends tonight, and happily checking out some of the 101.ru music channels in the background whilst I work. Tack så mycket, M-san! :)

I have recently recommended on my log Deloka by Leonid Federov. It's just an only song and not a radio link, but it's very nice and worth listening to (maybe it's even a traditional folk song, I don't know)

Let me add, that I always like having a look at you log, and since I watched Waltz with Bashir myself lately, may I ask what you mean by its propaganda touch?

Thanks for the link! :)

(With regards to "Waltz with Bashir", it's just my own intuitive reaction to the film. For whilst I watched, I couldn't help but be reminded a bit of propaganda films I'd seen in the past, particularly in the way different groups of antagonists were portrayed and the shocking photo collage at the end. I'm referring to the overall direction of the film, of course, and not the facts. All my sympathies lie with the poor victims in all this, and I'm grateful to the filmmakers for raising awareness of these types of dreadful atrocity.)

Ok, I avoided watching the pictures at the end (at least the most of it). But I don't know, if the groups were so antagonistic. Overall I was just curious to see actually this movie being spoken of having a propagandistic touch. From all the movies in the world, so to speak. So other movies would come to my mind on this regard. Anyway, I shall re-watch it, this time in Hebrew, so I'm ashamed to admit I watched it in German the first time :(

I initially put this amongst my German film collection because of the title (Vals Im Bashir) and was surprised to later discover it was all in Hebrew (with English subs I must confess). This was interesting for me as I can't recall ever watching a film all in Hebrew before. Afterwards, I succumbed to my wanderlust urges yet again, and turned in haste to my bookshelves to blow the dust off my old copy of Biblical Hebrew (well, it's all I could find at the time). I didn't get much further than the first few pages on the alphabet though. ;)

Oh yes, I see, who hasn't his or her own copy of a Biblical Hebrew course in his bookshelves, always at hands. Now, if not before, you know you're a language nerd!
