For all my students at IES Manuel de Falla, in Móstoles, and the rest of IES where I have worked. I work in this blog during my free time.

I wonder
I wonder how many times you've been had
And I wonder how many plans have gone bad
I wonder how many times you had sex
I wonder do you know who'll be next
I wonder I wonder wonder I do I wonder about the love you can't find
And I wonder about the loneliness that's mine
I wonder how much going have you got
And I wonder about your friends that are not
I wonder I wonder I wonder I do
I wonder about the tears in children's eyes
And I wonder about the soldier that dies
I wonder will this hatred ever end
I wonder and worry my friend
I wonder I wonder wonder don't you?
I wonder how many times you been had
And I wonder how many dreams have gone bad
I wonder how many times you've had sex
And I wonder do you care who'll be next
I wonder I wonder wonder I do
And I wonder how many plans have gone bad
I wonder how many times you had sex
I wonder do you know who'll be next
I wonder I wonder wonder I do I wonder about the love you can't find
And I wonder about the loneliness that's mine
I wonder how much going have you got
And I wonder about your friends that are not
I wonder I wonder I wonder I do
I wonder about the tears in children's eyes
And I wonder about the soldier that dies
I wonder will this hatred ever end
I wonder and worry my friend
I wonder I wonder wonder don't you?
I wonder how many times you been had
And I wonder how many dreams have gone bad
I wonder how many times you've had sex
And I wonder do you care who'll be next
I wonder I wonder wonder I do

Blowing in the Wind
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
How many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
How many times can a man turn his head
Pretending he just doesn't see?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
How many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
How many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Eurovision
The Eurovision Song Contest is an international TV song competition which is held every year among the member countries of the European Broadcasting Union since 1956.
Each participating country presents an original song which is performed on live television and radio and then votes for the other countries' songs to determine the most popular song in the competition. Ireland holds the record for the highest number of wins, having won the contest seven times.
Making your mind up, by Bucks Fizz, was the song which won the 1981 Eurovision Contest for Great Britain.
and then you gotta slow it down
'cos if you believe that a love can hit the top
you gotta play around
and soon you will find that there comes a time for making your mind up
you gotta turn it up
and then you gotta cool it down
you gotta be sure that it's something everybody's gonna talk about
before you decide the time's right for making your mind up
Don't let your indecision take you from behind
trust your inner vision
don't let others change your mind
And now you really gotta burn it up
and make another fly by night
get a run for your money
and take a chance
and it will turn out right
and when you see how it's gotta be
you're making your mind up!
And try to look as if you don't care less
but if you wanna see some more
then the rules of the game
will let you find the one you're looking for
and then you can show you think you know
that you're making your mind up
Don't let your indecision take you from behind
trust your inner vision
don't let others change your mind
And now you really gotta speed it up
and then you gotta slow it down
'cos if you believe that a love can hit the top
you gotta play around
and soon you will find that there comes a time for making your mind up
And now you really gotta speed it up
and then you gotta slow it down
'cos if you believe that a love can hit the top
you gotta play around
and soon you will find that there comes a time for making your mind up
For making your mind up

Tootsie
Totsie tells the story of an actor who takes the identity of a woman so that he can get a job. He falls in love, of course, but there is someone who also falls in love with him: a man.
- Stand by. Quiet, please, on the floor. Stand by.
- Twenty-two and twenty-three come down to eighteen.....
- Hold it, hold it....
- Five, four, three....
- Let's raise our glasses to our guest of honour, Ms. Emily Kimberly. Emily, we're all looking forward to having you grace us with your presence for many years to come.
- I can't tell you all how deeply moved I am. I never in my wildest dreams imagined that I would be the object of so much genuine affection..... It makes it more difficult for me to say what I'm now going to say. Yes, I do feel it's time to set the record straight. I didn't come here just as an administrator, doctor Christian. I came to this hospital to settle a little score.
- What score?
- As you know, my father was a brilliant man who built this hospital, as you all know. But to his family, he was an unmerciful tyrant, an absolute dodo bird.
- Oh, no! Not live.
- Let's see where she goes.
- He drove my mother to drink..... In fact...., she went riding one time and lost all her teeth.....
-What? What?
- ...and the oldest daughter, the pretty one, the charming one, became pregnant.... she was 15 years old and was driven out of the house. In fact, she was so terrified that.... her baby daughter would bear the stigma of illegitimacy... she decided to change her name and she contracted a disfiguring disease..... after moving to Tangiers, which is where she raised the little girl as her sister. But her one ambition....
- Any preference of shots on this one?
- ...was to become a nurse. So, she returned to the States and joined the staff right here.... at Southwest General, where she worked here and had to speak out wherever she saw injustice and inhumanity. Don't you understand that, don't you Dr. Brewster?
- I never laid a hand on her.
- Yes, you did. And she was shunned by all your nurses too.
- Give me something, one. I don't need backs. Two and three go left and right. No, two go left! Three, go right!
- ..... but she was deeply, deeply deeply, deeply loved....by her brother.
- Her brother?
- It was this brother, who on the day of her death.... swore to the good Lord above he'd follow in her footsteps. And, and,..... and,....just,... just,.... just...
- Don't, don't, don't panic.
- ...owe it all up to her! But on her terms!
- Here come the terms.
-As a woman......and just as proud to be a woman..... as she ever was..... .for I am not Emily Kimberly...... the daughter of Dwayne..... .and Alma Kimberly. No, I'm not...... I'm Edward Kimberly, the reckless brother of my sister Anthea.
- Holy Christ!
- ..... Edward Kimberly, who's finally vindicated his sister's good name. I'm Edward Kimberly. Edward Kimberly......
- I'll be damned.
-......I'm not mentally ill, but proud......and lucky, and strong to be the woman that was the best part of my manhood. The best part of myself.
- That is one nutty hospital.
- I knew there was a reason she didn't like me!
- Commercials
- Cut it!
- And cut!
- Stand by. Quiet, please, on the floor. Stand by.
- Twenty-two and twenty-three come down to eighteen.....
- Hold it, hold it....
- Five, four, three....

Let her go
Well you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go
Staring at the bottom of your glass
Hoping one day you'll make a dream last
But dreams come slow and they go so fast
You see her when you close your eyes
Maybe one day you'll understand why
Everything you touch surely dies
But you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
Staring at the ceiling in the dark
Same old empty feeling in your heart
'Cause love comes slow and it goes so fast
Well you see her when you fall asleep
But never to touch and never to keep
'Cause you loved her too much and you dive too deep
Well you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go
Oh oh oh no
And you let her go
Oh oh oh no
Well you let her go
'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go
