Song I've listened to about a 100 times today
I wrote a big entry about my life going nowhere at the moment but after reading it back I didn't want to post it so I figured I would blog about something else instead. (I think somewhere this week I'll retyp most of it, because I like having a blog which contains my thoughts/ideas to read back in a couple of years) I've started watching The World At War: ![]() It's an 30 hour documentary about the second world war, starting at Hitlers rise to power and highlighting all the major battles that took place in 1939-1945. I haven't finished it yet but it is pretty amazing because 80% of all the material is original footage shot during the war which is just unreal to see how all the bombings went down and battles were. Another great thing about this series is that it shows all the sides of the 'story'. It was made in 1973 and contains an incredible amount of interviews with Germans, Brits ,Russians, Japanese, Americans, etc. Because of school I knew the basics about the war but when you watch this it's just amazing that all of this happened not even a century ago! It's unimaginable how brutal some things were and I'm happy to not have lived at that time. There is a reason why this documentary has a 9,7 on IMDB (second highest I've ever seen there) and even almost 40 years after it's release it's still amazing to watch because of all the original footage. Besides this I've just been watching my fair share of tvshows, most are pretty solid however some are absolutely terrible (for example: 'V'). But with so much free time on my hands I still watch too much. Robin out.
