Stevie Nicks recommended The Little Prince in Books (curated)

"I first discovered The Little Prince when I was in high school and fell in love with the book straight away. My make-up artist has a tattoo of the Little Prince on the side of her leg, so I’m often reminded of what a beautiful story it is. It’s a sweet fable about the relationship between a little boy and his love for a rose. There is such a strong philosophy of love and loneliness running throughout the book that I can’t help but return to it again and again"

CHILLFILTR (46 KP) rated Get Over You by Lydia Evangeline in Music

Jul 11, 2019

Sometimes it just all comes together for a singer and a song. Evangeline reminds us of Ark, with a similar feel for catchy harmonies and a gorgeous voice, but the guitar pocket here is very old-school, and it sounds like a mix by Daniel Lanois. It just all melts together like a plastic toy in the sun.

Some really deep and percussive bass synth keeps this one right on the money.

Lydia Evangeline is based in Brighton, UK, you might know her as half of acoustic rock duo Wayward Daughter.

Great read

Dita was a prisoner of auschwitz, books were banned and if found punishable by death, she became the Librarian of block 31, block 31 was like a small school it was to give children a sense of a little normality with a small amount of books which were given out by dita and also looked after and repaired, as you can imagine it horrific what the children saw and the conditions they had to live in. Such a heartwarming and upsetting read.
