All day and all of the night

"A young man who is quite good at playing the guitar" - A reference to Jimi Hendrix.

I chuckled for quite some time after that sentence. It's in the movie "A boat that rocked". Also, I loved that movie. It is definitely one of my favorite movies of all time. The music is all from the 60's and it's absolutely fantastic. Something like this:

That time just seems so much simple although it actually surely wasn't. Still - I admire the 60's for so much even though a lot also baffles me about the period. Like, in the movie, the up-tightness of a conservative British family, it just seems so unpleasant and makes me think of a rich British family as unproductive and unimaginative. I know it isn't so, but I still imagine them that way + nowadays they're a lot fatter so I add that to my vision of a typical British family. But that's not what I want to write about. I want to emphasize how much I would love if some (or more) things in the world were as they were in the 60's. The way men treated women for example - I always imagine that back then all men were gentlemen who knew how to really treat a woman. There are other things like the carefree attitude and the way people dressed and the lack of (or at least lesser amount of) peer pressure about clothing, behaviour etc. Those are the things I respect, the things that fill my heart with joy, the things that I aspire towards.

Now more about the music. The rock'n'roll tunes played during that time were, back then, considered pretty rebellious and that made them so much more exciting to the people of that time. Also, people danced more, and didn't seem to be that concerned with dance moves and what they looked like during dancing. They just enjoyed themselves. Unlike nowadays, where people, especially guys, are worried if they look silly or something. I'm not a dancer myself, mainly because of that, but I actually love moving around.

I think that love held a deeper meaning to people back then. Sometimes I don't think that, because nowadays love is mainstreamed through so many movies and other media that it probably is something important to people. But I still think that love was something different in the 60's. I can't really explain it, I'm sorry.

 But I think that I've expressed enough opinions for tonight.

Enjoy the good in life.
