HAPPY 4TH JULY 2012, INDEPENDENCE DAY

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY TO MY AMERICAN FAMILY AND FRIENDS

10 THINGS I LIKE ABOUT AMERICA 

1. FAMILY

My maternal grandmother is American. She comes from Virginia. She was a well known socialite in her 20s and 30s, until she married grandfather Thomas and moved to Africa to do their philanthropic work. When grandpa died she moved back to Virginia to work in Adult Education. She passed away at the ripe age of 94 in 2007.

2. PRESIDENT OBAMA

I support Obama, and say each to their own. But as a personal choice, I am happy that America has evolved enough for a man of colour to become President of the USA. I enjoy watching him and listening to him, I believe he is an intelligent, eloquent and well meaning man. Given a chance I believe he could do a lot not just for America but the world.

3. THE STATUE OF LIBERTY

I think it is a beautiful piece of art and the way it stands sky high at the harbour is just splendid. I also like what it represents in terms of freedom and hope. Many immigrants talk about the first time they came to America and saw the Statue of liberty as they approached the harbour.

4. HOLLYWOOD

I love Hollywood especially the golden age of Hollywood during the studio era. As a kid I always wanted to be an all singing, dancing movie star like Judy Garland, Ginger Rogers and all the other wonderful ladies of MGM. I loved Bette Davis and Jean Harlow movies. I could watch all these old movies all day. I was delighted that The Artist did so well as it was a throwback to the golden era. These days I like the big blockbuster movies especially science fiction and superhero movies.

5. NEW YORK AND BROADWAY

I love New York. As the song goes “It’s a wonderful town”. I went to New York for the first time in 2007 on the 4^th July because I wanted to see the Macy’s day parade. I was not disappointed. Much busier than I imagined and everything is so big. Despite living near the West End in London, I still went to three Broadway plays, RENT, The Colour Purple and CHICAGO.

 

6. DISNEY

Who did not grow up as a child watching Disney cartoons and movies. I love Mickey, Minnie and Donald because they are part of my childhood. The Disney movies were always so happy and full of hope, a firm favourite was Pollyanna. I have been to Disneyland Florida and I loved every minute of it. Some of the rides I went on twice.

7. BARBECUES

My extended family loves barbecues. We even have them at weddings! I love a good old American barbecue, its big, loud, fun and full of laughter. I do believe some places in America have the best meat in the world. Yum!!

8. APPLE PIE

I love fresh apple pie and my mum learnt how to make it from scratch from my grandma and great aunt Polly. I still don’t know how to make it. But I remember in my childhood, the delicious aroma from the kitchen when my mum was baking apple pie.

9. PARADES

I love pomp and ceremony and celebrations galore! Britain does traditional pomp and ceremony best judging from the Jubilee celebrations in 2012 and the wedding of Prince William and Catherine (Kate) Middleton, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. However I love the fact Americans are not shy of celebrating even the smallest local achievement by giving a parade. They are proud of any achievement and literally want to shout it from the rooftop. I love that and admire it. Someone give me a parade please!

10. SUPERHEROES

There is something about superheroes and their blockbuster action movies that can give even a grown up hope. I love the fact that they make us believe that good will always conquer over evil. I loved Marvel’s Avengers Assemble movie, I went to see it twice and enjoyed it tremendously. In homage to the 1^st Avenger, Captain America here is a sweet video of a military dad surprising his son on his birthday wearing a Captain America costume – SO SWEET!

POEMS FOR FATHER

A Father and a Dad Are Not the Same

A father and a dad are not the same:
One can be a dad and not a father,
Or one can be a father and not bother
To earn through love the more endearing name.
Some find fatherhood a bit too tame,
Leaving all the details to the mother,
Or dumping the sweet burden on another
Man with just a passing twinge of shame.
You have been our dad so many years
That you've become the landscape that is home,
The mountain that we look to from afar.
No matter where we go we're not alone,
For you remain within to still our fears
And be the word that tells us who we are.

A Little Girl Needs Daddy

A little girl needs Daddy
For many, many things:
Like holding her high off the ground
Where the sunlight sings!

Like being the deep music
That tells her all is right
When she awakens frantic with
The terrors of the night.

Like being the great mountain
That rises in her heart
And shows her how she might get home
When all else falls apart.

Like giving her the love
That is her sea and air,
So diving deep or soaring high
She'll always find him there.

Before I Was Myself, You Made Me, Me

Before I was myself you made me, me
With love and patience, discipline and tears,
Then bit by bit stepped back to set me free,

Allowing me to sail upon my sea,
Though well within the headlands of your fears.
Before I was myself you made me, me

With dreams enough of what I was to be
And hopes that would be sculpted by the years,
Then bit by bit stepped back to set me free,

Relinquishing your powers gradually
To let me shape myself among my peers.
Before I was myself you made me, me,

And being good and wise, you gracefully
As dancers when the last sweet cadence nears
Bit by bit stepped back to set me free.

For love inspires learning naturally:
The mind assents to what the heart reveres.
And so it was through love you made me, me
By slowly stepping back to set me free.

For You I Feel an Overwhelming Love

For you I feel an overwhelming love,
All the more because you're far away.
Though all the continents of Earth may move,
Here is my love, and here my love will stay.
Each time I feel my fortune go adrift,
Realities like rocks poised in my way,
'Ere I feel that fearful, shuddering rift,
Some memory of you holds them at bay.

Dad, your love can still my heart uplift;
After all these years, my spirits sway;
Your strength and courage still my fears remove.

ROBIN GIBB BIOGRAPHY

Copyright biography.com

http://www.biography.com/people/robin-gibb-20728001

Born on the Isle of Man, singer Robin Gibb moved to Australia in 1958 with his family. He performed with his brothers Barry and Maurice as the Bee Gees, scoring some hits in Australia before moving to England in 1967. By the late 1970s, the Bee Gees became one of the top pop acts in the world, riding the disco craze. Gibb has pursued a solo career over the years, but never gained the same level of success as the Bee Gees.

Robin Gibb with Bee Gees early days

Early Life

The force behind of some pop's most legendary hits, Robin Gibb arrived in this world just 30 minutes ahead of his twin brother, Maurice. The pair, along with their older brother, Barry, would later become the dynamic trio known as the Bee Gees. Music was a large part of their family life. Their father, a bandleader, encouraged the boys' interest in performing from an early age.

In 1958, Gibb and his family emigrated to Australia, and settled in Brisbane. There, he and his two brothers found some success, hosting a weekly television show. They released their first single in 1963, which reflected their trademark three-part harmony sound. Gibb shared lead vocal duties with his brother Barry, and the trio was heavy influenced by such English rock acts as the Beatles. Behind the scenes, the brothers collaborated in writing most of the group's original songs.

In moving to England in 1967, Gibb's career started to take off. The Bee Gees scored several hits, including the psychedelic rock-flavored "New York Mining Disaster 1941." In 1969, Gibb went solo briefly, releasing Robin's Reign that year. "Saved by the Bell" proved to be his first hit on his own. Gibb later reunited with his brothers and scored another hit with 1971's "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart."

Disco Hits

After falling out of favor for a time, the Bee Gees became one of the most popular groups of the 1970s. They worked with producer Arif Mardin, developing more R&B and dance-oriented music. In 1975, the Bee Gees topped the American charts with "Jive Talkin'" and more hits soon followed. They contributed several songs to the hugely successful soundtrack Saturday Night Fever (1977), a dramatic ode of sorts to the emerging disco music scene. Songs included the ballad "How Deep Is Your Love" and infectious dance tune "Stayin' Alive."

The Bee Gees continued to thrive, topping the charts with the album Spirits Having Flown in 1979. It featured their now-trademark mix of dance tracks and ballads, and sold roughly 35 million copies. As the 1980s began, however, the Bee Gees suffered a backlash as the public lost interest in disco.

Around this time, Gibb worked on a number of solo projects, including 1983's How Old Are You?. The album featured "Juliet," a hit single in Europe. He also worked with other artists as well, producing and writing for Jimmy Ruffin. With his brothers, Gibb penned hit songs for Barbra Streisand, Dionne Warwick and Dolly Parton, among others.

Gibb teamed up with his brothers for a few more Bee Gees albums, such as E.S.P. (1987) and One (1989), but they never achieved the same level of success they experienced earlier. Much maligned by critics over the years, the Bee Gees finally received some recognition for their accomplishments in 1997, when they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Recent Projects

After the death of his twin Maurice in 2003, Gibb retired the Bee Gees name. He released the solo album Magnet that same year, and followed it up a few years later with a holiday recording, My Favourite Christmas Carols.

Gibb has sometimes performed with his brother Barry over the years, usually for charity events. As a prolific songwriter, he has worked hard to make sure that artists receive the royalties due for their work. Gibb has served as the president of International Confederation of Societies of Authors and Composers (CISAC) since 2007.

Most recently, he has been working with his son, RJ, on his classical composition. The pair wrote Titanic Requiem to mark the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the luxury liner Titanic in 1912. In addition to his music, Gibb is very active in charitable causes. He sang vocals on a cover of the Bee Gees' "I've Gotta to Get a Message to You" with the Soldiers to raise money for the Royal British Legion. He has also been instrumental in attracting contributions for a special monument in London called the Bomber Command Memorial for those who served in World War II.

Personal Life

Bee Gees with the CBEs from Queen's honours

In recent years, Gibb has struggled with some medical problems. He underwent emergency surgery in 2010 for a blocked intestine. The following year, Gibb was hospitalized three times. He was later diagnosed with colorectal cancer.

Gibb claimed to have beaten his illness, telling the press in February 2012 that he had undergone chemotherapy and have achieved "spectacular" results. But by late March, the singer had returned to the hospital for intestinal surgery. Gibb had to cancel a number of appearances, but he still hoped to make the April 10 premiere of Titanic Requiem in London.

Sadly, Gibb could not make it the concert because he came down with pneumonia. He slipped into a coma a few days later. At a London hospital, Gibb has been surrounded by family, including his second wife Dwina and their son Robin-John, or RJ. His two children from his first marriage, Spencer and Melissa, have also been present. According to several press reports, the family is "hoping and praying" that Gibb "will pull through" this latest health crisis.

Later that month, Gibb regained consciousness. "It is a testament to Robin's extraordinary courage, iron will and deep reserves of physical strength that he has overcome quite incredible odds to get where he is now," one of his doctors told the press. Even with all of his determination, Gibb was not able to overcome his illness. He died on May 20, 2012, in London after his long battle with cancer. Gibb will be remembered for his soulful voice, his contributions to popular music and his work on behalf of songwriters everywhere. Robin Gibb was 62.
