Carlos: "Shadowplay" by Joy Division


Wouldn't it be cool if everyone came with their own personal soundtrack?

Think about it...as you walk down the street, speed down the freeway or look up at the sky -- a powerful anthem blares out capturing the moment perfectly.

This week, I'll be associating each photo with a song that I feel artistically captures the moment.

Feel free to share your thoughts or own soundtracks.


Shadowplay


To the centre of the city where all roads meet, waiting for you
To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank, searching for you
I was moving through the silence without motion, waiting for you
In a room with a window in the corner I found truth


Songwriters: Bernard Sumner, Ian Kevin Curtis, Peter Hook, Stephen Paul Morris

Wessen: Zoot Suit Pizzazz


What is the glorious occasion that has Wessen wearing a custom-made zoot suit?  Is it a grand wedding, big dance or first date?  No, it's...Saturday.

That's right.  Wessen is sporting this classic ensemble for no other reason than to look good on his afternoon stroll.

The man has great taste.

Amy: Blond 'Re-Do'


Last time we saw Amy, she celebrated Valentine's Day with Pink hair.  I wonder what cool surprise she has in store for Easter.

#BIWINNING in Toronto: Charlie Sheen's Walk for Bipolar Awareness


Not surprisingly, Charlie Sheen's Violent Torpedo of Truth shows at Massey Hall were followed by incredibly bad reviews; however, the big surprise came early yesterday morning when the unpredictable star tweeted: "Bipolar Awareness Walk!!  Come join me at 6pm and walk with me from The Ritz Carlton to Massey Hall..!  Show your support..!!  #BIWINNING" 

As expected, the tweet went viral and many devoted fans descended on the Ritz to march with their favourite warlock.


Before leading the crowd through the streets, Sheen announced that he would be generously matching each dollar donated to the cause (oddly, there were no noticeable donation collectors).


Sheen walking arm and arm with his "goddesses" (Rachel Oberline and Natalie Kenly) on Yonge Street towards Massey Hall.


Whether the walk achieved its philanthropic purpose is a mystery, but it was certainly a strategic diversion from the show's bad press.  I guess Charlie Sheen is #WINNING after all.

Frankie Goes to Kensington Market


If you're wondering who appeared the most on TorontoVerve, well that distinction goes to Frankie.  Queen Street, Yorkville, Kensington Market -- wherever I may be -- her amazing style is like a magnet to my camera.
