Avenue des Champs Elysees, Paris, France

The Avenue des Champs-Élysées is a prestigious avenue in Paris, France. With its cinemas, cafés, luxury specialty shops and clipped horse-chestnut trees, the Avenue des Champs-Élysées is one of the most famous streets in the world, and with rents as high as €1.1 million (USD1.5 million) annually per 1,100 square feet (92.9 square metres) of space, it remains the most expensive strip of real estate in Europe. The name is French for Elysian Fields, the place of the blessed dead in Greek mythology.

FM and other antennas bristle from the top of the Prudential Building. From Wikipedia: "The top mounted mast contains two FM master antennas and a top mount television antenna. The top mount television antenna is for WBPX. The upper master antenna was manufactured by Electronics Research, Inc. (ERI) and has WZLX 100.7, WBCN 104.1, WMJX 106.7, and WXKS 107.9. The lower master antenna was installed in the late 90′s ,also by Electronics Reasearch, Inc. and has the signals of WBOS 92.9, WTKK 96.9 , and WROR 105.7. All of the FM stations transmit roughly 22,000 watts ERP and in HD Radio." By the way, WBPX, now on Channel 68, will move to Channel 32 when it goes all-digital next February, and will transmit from a tower in Needham. This top mast will then go idle.

Healing Begins by Tenth Avenue North (with lyrics)

August 22nd, 2010
25 Comments »


Tenth Avenue North’s new song that will be released on their upcoming album, The Light Meets The Dark, on May 11. Lyrics: So you thought you had to keep this up All the work that you do So we think that you’re good And you can’t believe it’s not enough All the walls you built up Are just glass on the outside So let ‘em fall down There’s freedom waiting in the sound When you let your walls fall to the ground We’re here now This is where the healing begins, oh This is where the healing starts When you come to where you’re broken within The light meets the dark The light meets the dark Afraid to let your secrets out Everything that you hide Can come crashing through the door now But too scared to face all your fear So you hide but you find That the shame won’t disappear So let it fall down There’s freedom waiting in the sound When you let your walls fall to the ground We’re here now We’re here now, oh This is where the healing begins, oh This is where the healing starts When you come to where you’re broken within The light meets the dark The light meets the dark Sparks will fly as grace collides With the dark inside of us So please don’t fight This coming light Let this blood come cover us His blood can cover us This is where the healing begins, oh This is where the healing starts When you come to where you’re broken within The light meets the dark The light meets the dark To those wondering why there are only 3 people in the album art, their bassist, Scott, left TAN and …
