Sister

Allegra means "lively" or even "gay" (as in happy) and to me, points again to Viva la Vida (long live life.)

The "long live" theme really seems strong lately.  But it refers to a replacement of power - one had a good, long life, now it's someone else's turn to take power.  At least, this is the way I see it and is at least partly the meaning of the Coldplay song, Viva la Vida.

The bells theme fits perfectly with this as well.  As do drownings, ships/boat, Queen Elizabeth etc.

Ding! Viva la Vida (Long live)

Taco Bell is changing their slogan to "Live Mas" which means, live more or the same thing, basically, as Viva la Vida.

Long live


I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing


Yesterday, I said these two matched up well together and I had no idea why I thought so, since they really don't look *that* similar... but to me, they went together.

Today, I see this...

Madonna's halftime began by her being led out by the Roman Cavalry

There was a choir to accompany Madonna also...

The single, Viva la Vida (Coldplay) is all about a new king taking over...

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice

Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key

Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing

Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

My mind was telling me about this song...

Now it all seems to make sense.

The debut of Smash and the Queen's real Diamond Jubilee are on the same day - there is a very clear message being sent to those who will see it.
The 2012 Olympics are all about bells.

Smash comparisons


But this is not the first thing that struck me.  The first thing my mind thought of was this... although I'm not really sure why...
