Poets of the Fall – Lights & Shadows
What does it take to be an inspiring artist? What does it take not to get lost between lights and shadows? What does it take to be oneself in a world that’s gone completely bonkers? These are the eternal questions which never get fully answered, or that have so many answers that nothing makes sense in the end… the truth is, it does not have to. Anyway, my friend and I got carried away as we were chatting about our favourite subject: Poets of the Fall ?. She told me: “Wouldn’t it be cool if we found more than one song with the concept of light and shadow as Marko…
Poets of the Fall – Forward Quotes – EP06
“Every person is a temple of thought” said Marko Saaresto on the Live in Moscow in 2013. Think about this for a minute… if we weren’t showered with such an amount of information every day, the kind that get us focused on the wrong things all the time, the kind that wherever we look, we cannot escape… and yet, we are the only ones who can make it so that such information does not pollute our lives because we are our own temple of thought… solely with that statement, Marko managed to wire my mind into an uncontrollable spiral of thoughts that have not left me since I first heard…
Temple of Thought – Poets of the Fall inspired
Yesterday, as I was driving home from work, I was contemplating the idea of writing a new post since it had been a while… I have to tell you, it is not as easy as you think to come up with something to say that you might relate to; anyway, since the automatic pilot on my car was on – read that I was stuck behind a truck and could not overtake it – I had plenty of time to think in and outside the box. Of course, I had a little help from my favourites poets, Poets of the Fall, and their song Temple of Thought, from the album Temple of Thought……

Poets of the Fall – A splendid toolbox
Healing is a long process especially when one has what many call an “invisible illness” such as a “burn-out” (or the better term: exhaustion syndrome disorder).Today, however, I am very proud to say that I have taken yet another giant step towards recovery. There is obviously no finish line but rather a clearer path and vision of where I want to go and who I am. This post is as much about Poets of the Fall as it is about me, yours truly. You see, it doesn’t matter the tools you are using to be healthy again, as long as they work; in my case, Poets of the Fall are…
Old habits die hard
I have to admit today I cannot find myself. She is somewhere within but she’s become so good at hiding that she’s probably found new places to do so. As I said before, old habits die hard… It is like I am standing in an empty bubble, opaque and cold, in the middle of nowhere – or maybe it is right in the courtyard I couldn’t tell you see. Adjustment takes time, and time is what I do have. So, tell me, what is wrong with me today? I was after all very cheery and shiny yesterday, what happened between then and now? Maybe it is just the morning frost that won’t…

Poets of the Fall Effect – A journey into inspiration & creativity
Come and tag along while I write a poem coming directly from the heart of music… and elsewhere. Inspiration & creativity should not have to wait. There is this thing I do when I like something so much that I want everybody to feel the same… although, I am well aware that it’s not how it works… Anyway, being aware is good because it prevents me from jumping with both my feet in the puddle of mud hidden under the carpet. Weird imagery, I know but that’s the one that popped out – probably due to the freaking weather hiding the sun away. Anyway, here they come again, Poets of…
