This Mortal Coil – Kangaroo

I first saw you.
You had on blue jeans.
Your eyes couldn’t hide anything.
I saw you breathing
And I saw you staring out in space.
I next saw you, you was at a party.
Thought you wasn’t cool, oh so flirty.
I came against.
Didn’t say excuse.
You knew what I was doing,
We looked very fine ’cause we were leaving.
Like Saint Joan, doing a cool, cool jerk
Oh I want you, Oh I want you… like a kangaroo…

Fiona Apple – Why Try To Change Me Now

I’m sentimental
So I walk in the rain
I’ve got some habits
even I cant explain
Go to the corner
and I end up in Spain

Why try to change me now?

I seat and day dream
I got day dreams galore
Cigarette ashes that they go on the floor
Go away weekend
Leave my keys in the door

Why try to change me now?

Why cant I be more conventional
People talk and they stay… So I try
But that cant be
cos I cant see
my strange little world
just go passing me by
let people wonder
let them laugh let them frown
you know I love you
till the moon is upside down
don’t you remember
I was always your clown

Why try to change me now?

Why cant I be more conventional
People talk and they stay…. So I try
But that cant be
cos I cant see
my strange little world
just go passing me by
let people wonder
let them laugh let them frown
you know I love you
till the moon is upside down
don’t you remember
I was always your clown

Why try to change me?
Why would you want to change me?
Why try to change me now?

Serradura – Mário de Sá Carneiro

A minha vida sentou-se
E não há quem a levante,
Que desde o Poente ao Levante
A minha vida fartou-se.

E ei-la, a mona, lá está,
Estendida, a perna traçada,
No infindável sofá
Da minha Alma estofada.

Pois é assim: a minh’Alma
Outrora a sonhar de Rússias,
Espapaçou-se de calma,
E hoje sonha só pelúcias.

Vai aos Cafés, pede um bock,
Lê o “Matin” de castigo,
E não há nenhum remoque
Que a regresse ao Oiro antigo!

Dentro de mim é um fardo
Que não pesa, mas que maça:
O zumbido dum moscardo,
Ou comichão que não passa.

Folhetim da “Capital”
Pelo nosso Júlio Dantas –
Ou qualquer coisa entre tantas
Duma antipatia igual…

O raio já bebe vinho,
Coisa que nunca fazia,
E fuma o seu cigarrinho
Em plena burocracia!…

Qualquer dia, pela certa,
Quando eu mal me precate,
É capaz dum disparate,
Se encontra a porta aberta…

Isto assim não pode ser…
Mas como achar um remédio?
– Pra acabar este intermédio
Lembrei-me de endoidecer:

O que era fácil – partindo
Os móveis do meu hotel,
Ou para a rua saindo
De barrete de papel

A gritar “Viva a Alemanha”…
Mas a minh’Alma, em verdade,
Não merece tal façanha,
Tal prova de lealdade…

Vou deixá-la – decidido –
No lavabo dum Café,
Como um anel esquecido.
É um fim mais raffiné.

Serradura – Mário de Sá Carneiro

Analysis of long tail keywords for SEO with Google Analytics

After the recent Mayday update to Google SERP I decided to have a look into how much was the long tail keywords influenced by this.

Long tail keywords are normally keywords with 3 or more words. To track it down I used the following regular expression: [^\s\+]+(\s|\+)+[^\s\+]+(\s|\+)+[^\s\+]+

Steps inside Google Analytics. Traffic Sources->Search Engines->Google->Non paid

On the filter keyword [containing] I input the regular expression: [^\s\+]+(\s|\+)+[^\s\+]+(\s|\+)+[^\s\+]+

After I just tracked down the last 3 month number of visits with and without filtering the long tail and calculated the % value of the longtail.

long tail keywords/total organic = % of the value for the long tail

5 minutes and I realised that mayday update did *not* influence my sites long tail keywords.

Hope that helps and if someone knows of a simpler or more effective way to do this I would love to know.

I Know It’s Over – The Smiths

Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
And as I climb into an empty bed
Oh well… enough said.
I know it’s over – still I cling
I don’t know where else I can go
Over …
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
See, the sea wants to take me
The knife wants to slit me
Do you think you can help me ?
Sad veiled bride, please be happy
Handsome groom, give her room
Loud, loutish lover, treat her kindly
(Though she needs you
More than she loves you)
And I know it’s over – still I cling
I don’t know where else I can go
Over and over and over and over
Over and over, la …
I know it’s over
And it never really began
But in my heart it was so real
And you even spoke to me, and said :
“If you’re so funny
Then why are you on your own tonight ?
And if you’re so clever
Then why are you on your own tonight ?
If you’re so very entertaining
Then why are you on your own tonight ?
If you’re so very good-looking
Why do you sleep alone tonight ?
I know …
‘Cause tonight is just like any other night
That’s why you’re on your own tonight
With your triumphs and good charms
While they’re all there in each other’s arms…”
It’s so easy to laugh
It’s so easy to hate
It takes strength to be gentle and kind
Over, over, over, over
It’s so easy to laugh
It’s to easy to hate
It takes guts to be gentle and kind
Over, over
Love is Natural and Real
But not for you, my love
Not tonight, my love
Love is Natural and Real
But not for such as you and I, my love
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
