Music In Me featuring: BARBARA DICKSON (Another Suitcase In Another Hall)



"There are things
that we never want
to let go of, 
people we never want 
to leave behind.

But keep in mind 
that letting go 
isn’t the end of the world,

it’s the beginning 
of a new life."

ANOTHER SUITCASE IN ANOTHER HALL (Evita*)



LYRICS


I don't expect my love affairs to last for long
Never fool myself that my dreams will come true
Being used to trouble I anticipate it
But all the same I hate it - wouldn't you?

So what happens now?
Another suitcase in another hall
So what happens now?
Take your picture off another wall
Where am I going to?
You'll get by, you always have before
Where am I going to?

Time and time again I've said that I don't care
That I'm immune to gloom, that I'm hard through and through
But every time it matters all my words desert me
So anyone can hurt me - and they do

So what happens now?
Another suitcase in another hall
So what happens now?
Take your picture off another wall
Where am I going to?
You'll get by you always have before
Where am I going go?

Call in three months time and I'll be fine I know
Well maybe not that fine, but I'll survive anyhow
I won't recall the names and places of Each sad occasion
But that's no consolation -- here and now

So what happens now?
Another suitcase in another hall
So what happens now?
Take your picture off another wall
Where am I going to?
You'll get by, you always have before
Where am I going to?
Don't ask anymore


*The musical "Evita," which was based on the life of Argentinian leader Eva Perón, originated from the 1976 concept album of the same name, co-written by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber.

Patty Hearst Story (last part)

From Patty Hearst to Tania: Shifting from one Personality Paradigm to Another




continued from 2nd to last part

But what may have solidified her identification with her captors was the fact that she witnessed them die when the police surrounded their safe-house and open-fired on them. By this time, Hearst became convinced that all the things they were telling her were true and that the cops now wanted to kill her. Patty then was already brainwashed.

Brainwashing, Stockholm Syndrome or defense mechanism -- the real reason for Patty Hearst’s personality transformation remains shrouded in mystery. Despite the many theories used to explain the incident, people could only be sure of one thing. Somewhere, at some point in time, something happened in Patty Hearst’s life -- and that molded her into the person that she was before and after her nightmare.
