Howard Shore – Coeur Volant (feat. Zaz)

Track 20 from the Hugo soundtrack – Coeur Volant (feat. Zaz).

Lyrics: Animer, à la vie, les songes, les couleurs,
voir la lune, les étoiles, tout se retrouve à nouveau.

Serpentant les ruelles,
dans l’oubli, dans la peur,
petit génie aux doigts de fée,
fixant les heures,
ouvrant ses ailes,
un cœur qui pleurait, qui s’envole
l’amour a soigné ce qu’il manquait.

Elle était inconnue, curieuse et puis amie
un clin d’œil en offrande
petite sirène aux yeux de nuit
sa clé a porté le rêve vivant
un secret qu’ils partagent à présent.

Il était magicien d’images de poèmes
dompteur de rêves,
caché dans l’ombre,
seul avec son jeu brisé,
son cœur cassé
les choses en morceaux se réparent a nouveau.

Rêve …
N’oublie pas les rêves!
Rêve …

English translation:

Open to life’s dream and colors,
Watch the moon and the stars.
All that is lost can be found again.

Winding in shadows,
Fearful and forgotten,
A little genie with nimble fingers
Fixing the hours.
Wings opening,
His broken heart takes flight.
Love heals everything.

She was a stranger, a helper, now friend.
A little mermaid with eyes of the night,
Her key brought the dream to life.
His secret now shared.

He was a magician of pictures and poems.
A dreamer of dreams,
Hiding in shadows,
Alone with his broken playful things.
Then his broken heart flies.
Things in pieces can mend.

Dream…
Remember to dream…
Dream…

Making Skype usable on Fedora 14 and maybe later versions too

I use Skype a lot. But although Skype has a fantastic version for Windows, the Linux part is a bit weak. I run Fedora 14 on my laptop(Compaq CQ42 173TU) and for some reason, Skype wont run on it. With the RPM package of 2.2 Beta, it gets installed but never runs. So I installed the static version of it following this instructions here. But when I would try to run skype from terminal, this error would occur –

Shell
1
2
3
[root@localhost ~]# skype
skype: error while loading shared libraries: libXv.so.1:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

So to check which dependency package I was missing, I searched with YUM –

Shell
1
[root@localhost ~]# yum whatprovides libXv.so.1

and found that this specific package libXv-1.0.5-1.fc13.i686 has that specific file. So although I’m running Fedora 14 and it’s of x86_64 architecture, I installed that package which was meant for Fedora 13 and i686 architecture. Then ran skype from terminal and it worked!
