Hi, I'm Juliet, 27 years old from the Netherlands and I'm new here. I live together with my fiancee and work as an artist. I look forward to reading the forums. Juliet.
Welcome Juliet! There are a lot of artists on here so you are among friends. Feel free to post where ever you want. Though as a reminder to everyone, please be kind and peaceful. We have some people who can be pretty hateful towards others on here, and we don't like that. But nontheless Welcome, and the Netherlands are awesome!
Hey Juliet, I think this very amusing, please bare with me, OK? You’re from the Netherlands and you call yourselves Dutch, where does Holland come in? Here is my cookie cutter welcome. Let me extend the welcome mat. I recently found “The Hip Forums” myself and I know what it’s like to be a newcomer. You don’t really know what to say or how to act. Read some of the threads so you can get the gist of what topics are being discussed. When you feel comfortable jump right in and get your feet wet. Nobody here is going to “Flame” you, that just isn’t tolerated here (unless it’s necessary) lol. We get some assholes here who just want to stir up bad vibes... From what I’ve found so far is that we are one big family with many brothers and sisters. Once again the doors open come on in, open up your heart and mind, put on some groovy tunes, kick back and stay awhile. Peace & Love, DDR Quote: Dorothy Parker "I don't care what is written about me so long as it isn't true." After all you are from Van Gogh's home land. Don McLean 1st Verse: G Am Starry starry night, paint your palette blue and grey, C D7 G Look out on a summer’s day, with eyes that know the darkness in my soul. Am Shadows on the hills, sketch the trees and the daffodils, C D7 G C G Catch the breeze and the winter chills in colors on the snowy linen land. Chorus: Am D7 G Em And now I understand what you tried to say to me. Am7 D7 Em How you suffered for your sanity, how you tried to set them free. A7 D7 G C G They would not listen they did not know how, perhaps they’ll listen now. 2nd Verse: G Am Starry starry night flaming flowers that brightly blaze. C D7 Swirling clouds in violet haze, reflects in Vincent’s eyes of China Blue. G Am Colors changing hue, morning fields of amber grain. C D7 G C G Weathered faces lined in pain are soothed beneath the artist’s loving hand. Chorus: Am D7 G Now I understand what you tried to say to me. Em Dm7 D7 Em How you suffered for your sanity, how you tried to set them free. A7 D7 G C G They did not listen, they did not know how, perhaps they’ll listen now. Chorus: Am7 D7 G For they could not love you, but still your love was true, Em Am7 Cm6 And when no hope was left in sight on that starry starry night, G F7 E7 You took your life as lovers often do Am7 But I could have told you Vincent, C D7 G C G this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you. 3rd Verse G Am Starry starry night, portraits hung in empty halls. C Frameless heads on nameless walls, D7 G C G with eyes that watch the world and can’t forget. Like the strangers that you’ve met, Am C The ragged men in ragged clothes, the silver thorn of bloody rose, D7 G Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow. Chorus: Am D7 G Em And now I think I know, what you tried to say to me. Am7 Em How you suffered for your sanity, how you tried to set them free. A7 D7 G C G They would not listen they’re not listening still perhaps they never will The tears are running down my cheeks, that is one of my all time favorites. It seems lately, that my emotions have been right on the surface and it doesn’t take much to start the water works.
Thank you all for your warm welcome. I can guarantee my intentions are peacefull and that I love this place. Juliet
