Esteban Mendieta Jara - Blog

Almost 2 years ago I had the opportunity to see a video that touched me very much, even wrote a post about it .

It was about the reallity Brit's Got Talent , one participant was Paul Potts a dreamer, who had his chance and shined.

Today, thanks to a post on his blog Rubi Torres Science / Technology and Sports , I learned of another dreamer who wanted their chance at a new version of this reality.

Susan Boyle is his name is 47 years old, and the truth that when viewed in the video I was stunned, I think that struck me more than when I saw Paul Potts.

When you go on stage people do not think she could make a good presentation, even had jokes when asked, what is your dream? she said I'm trying to be a professional singer, and why it happened before? asked, she answered, because I never had the chance, but now everything could change.

Enjoy the video, tears are permitted

Everyone has a talent and a mission in this life, maybe it's not easy to find, but when discovered, everything becomes satisfactory.

The pleasure of listening and enjoy the music I came for my dad, since I have to remember why he was always with his LPs (Long Plays, vinyl acetate) in the house playing music, recording his cassettes to take in the van and where we went we heard everything.

Singers like Leo Dan , Palito Ortega were part of "basic" for the trip, José José , Camilo Sesto , Los Tabajaras , The Huayanay , Nat King Cole , The Earthlings , among others were part of the discography traveler, so when many people put those songs sound I do not really rare, I think they're part of my growth.

A group that I liked and that were always reminded Ravens Cuenca group, the time of the 60s - 70s rock and roll gender and ballads, the last time I heard them was at a cassette that walks through the house.

For some time I was trying to find some songs from them, and today I finally accomplished through this website called Disk hard to get , so I have it and it really sounds great, with that classic sound the LP (scratch), the disc is called "They came The Crows" and what I read seems to be the only LP that they recorded it, if anyone has it I would like to purchase.

Today we find many music videos, lectures, films through YouTube , Vimeo , etc. and is very nice to be able to re-listen to songs from years ago that we found not anywhere, well that's my case, that many songs of the 80 could not find.

We can download the videos to play on our computers using a firefox add-on called Download Helper , but when we hear by means of an audio player things get complicated.

That is why for GNU / Linux has a program called ffmpeg that can be installed through the repositories, or through terminal

Good for many who do not know, the jukebox Cod is the band chimba of Ecuador, and thanks to the weekly soup - that recently shipped very from time to time, I learned that the band is on tour in Europe, so finally crossed the pond!

For all those fans of the jukebox can follow the tour through the official blog , I read today and I have not stopped laughing from start to finish, especially with the story of why you do not shut.

If you're in Europe check out his page , go to see and enjoy IMMIGRATION TOUR 2008 , which does not sing is because you have bad breath, you will not regret.

This is the tour poster, Alajar the truth ...

As I mentioned in the post " there is always a chance ", Paul Potts participated in the reality show ' Britain's Got Talent . "

In seven days Paul Potts went from being a seller of cell phones in Wales to win the reality show Britain's Got Talent 'and signing a 1 million albums with Simon Cowell .

The truth seems a story, Paul had a debt of £ 30,000, suffered years of people who bothered him, and recovered from a terrible motorcycle accident, now has a large contract with a major singing career in front of him. Nothing is impossible in this life.

His first album " One Chance "has been launched in UK, come to the U.S. market for the July 30, and I can find at Amazon . I do not think you get to Ecuador this album, a shame.

I have heard and the Internet, the truth that sounds good, the album comes with 10 songs including the now famous Nessun Dorma "that took him out of the blue-and a very good interpretation of A mi Manera (My Way) .

1. Nessun Dorma 2. Con Te Partiro (Time To Say Goodbye), 3. Amapola 4. Ognuna Soffre (Everybody Hurts), 5. Caruso, 6. Nella Fantasia 7. Por Ti Sere (You Raise Me Up), 8. A Mi Manera (My Way), 9. Cavatina 10. Music Of The Night

For a few weeks ago my friend Fernando de egaroo.com put a post on his blog , which I highly excited one, is a video of Paul Potts, you may already know what I mean, maybe not, but would be nice you see it.

Actually seeing this my skin prickled, and I was very touched, from time to time I see him again so I share with you.

To me, this video gives us a moral, if there is an opportunity for all, only that we must seize it.
