Thank you, bump boy and you restored everything.
Hurry back, edgar.
Today is Orland Blooms birthday, but first some info.
Orlando Jonathan Blanchard Bloom is an English actor. He had his break-through roles in 2001 as the elf-prince Legolas in The Lord of the Rings film trilogy and in 2003 as blacksmith Will Turner in the Pirates of the Caribbean film series.
Yes, the visuals... well, it's a French song about all the strange things that happen at night, so what do you expect :-) The video is "voyeur" (peeking into a bathroom window at night) but in a poetic and evocative way, nothing sordid.
