Daydreaming: Fashion 1969 Across The Universe

Everything accompanied to beautiful dreamy strings, do-do vocals and a groovy beat with a phaser effect. The song is Across the Universe performed by Sounds Galactic (John Keating) from the 1971 album An Astromusical Odyssey. Hope this will start off your week in a great way! (Via)

That was a very cool (and trippy!) video ! Definitely made my day. On a side note, the whole video was taken place de la Concorde in Paris. The architecture is very memorable (and I was there this afternoon!).

Of course, why didn't I guess Paris right away! Maybe it was the snowy weather, for some reason it doesn't feel like it would ever snow in Paris. You've been in Paris for a while now Royalton, when are you leaving and what are you doing there?

I've been working there for almost a year now, but I'm gonna leave very soon (in 10 days) to the Emirates. Never been there yet, have you been to Dubai or Abu Dhabi ? Take Care.

No I have not been to the Emirates yet, neither have I been to Paris - but I have seen other parts of France. Any chance you'll go north some time soon?
