the perfect song 




the perfect song for me is "last days of disco" from the american band Yo La Tengo. Yo La Tengo is my favorite band. I love that they exist, because always, when someone ask me about my favorite band  (A VERY VERY VERY DIFFICULT QUESTION), I can answer "Yo La Tengo" full of confidence and proud. 

Anyway, talking about the perfect song to me, "Last Days of Disco" reminds me about a hard time when I was a teenager, the song just to made feel, sad but at the same time it was full of beauty, I just to listen to it all day and never get tired of it. Until now I love the beauty mixed with other feelings, I think anything happens once in a time; is all the stuff happening at the same time like the song of insinuate  in a kind of way (that's my reading). 


 I don't want to do a spoiler of the full lyrics, but it is like a poem, so simple and so complex, complex because they talk about a memory related to a song, and talk about the feelings the secret song the song is about evokes. And the music is very soft and nostalgic (like the lyrics). The past year I saw Yo La Tengo live for the first time, I wanted so hard to listen that song in direct, but they didn't  play it. I a way, I like they didn't play it, because now I have the hope that some day I will see they again and they maybe play  "Last days of disco".

Hi! My name is Luciano Venegas Alcaino and I am 23 yeards old. I study Cine and TV  here in ICEI. I have live all my life in Santiago de Chile.  I spend my free time watching movies and making music. I will talk about the music stuff because is a short story and I think is funny.  When I was in Higschool I started my firt band whit three friends and since the date I have been in a lot of bands and stuff.  The first band was an average school band, we used to play a lot of grunge covers from bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains. But  after a year playing, our musical taste like band started to change, and we began playing some Talking Heads and David Bowie songs. It was great, to move from a sound to another. After that we start creating our oun songs and perform live shows  in partys. The band died in 2013 because the Higschool ends and we were all interested in diferent music styles. When i started my studys here in ICEI I began ano...

My  opinion about the use of blogs in the English class I think is a very useful tool to us to lear English, and try to express ourselves  by writting is a big challenge, sometimes I think in something to say or write about, but I don't know the words, so I start to look aways to say it, and that means I start learning vocabulary and new expresions or another ways to say what I mean. Another thing I like about using the blog in English class is the topics that you propose, I really enjoyed writing about an important picture ("every picture tells a story") or writting about the cinematic potencial of Santiago city ("Santiago from my study program's point of view") and another topics. It makes me look for information or think about things I didn't write about before.
