They definitely are one of those couples that give you hope ... and would be a huge downer were they to break up.

[@SandraLovesSun]

Beautifully said and I agree.

[@terencereed7957]

Amazing couple

[@peterlynley]

She has that French energy - and a slightly awkward grace about her movements. Not conventionally beautiful but sexy af. And I get the impression that she is an unpretentious person and not another slick celebrity.

[@brettjames2942]

Just awesome....... Amazing people providing beautiful things in a difficult time................. I remember..... Luke, and Ella pretty much got me through 2021.............

[@GoreVidalComicbooks]

I was talking with a friend of mine about music from the first decade of the 2000's. Even though some of these artists had been around since the 90's, like Belle & Sebastian, Moby, Dido, and Coldplay, the decade produced some great work by them and many others, like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Strokes, Muse, Gorillaz, and Aracade Fire. Thinking about that decade is like remembering a foreign country that no longer exists except in our dreams.

[@DavidLopez-tj7jl]

Damn, we're starting to feel nostalgia for the 2000's

[@Boshunz]

I know. Time is a weird thing. Imagine what we'll say about now in 20 years. Let's enjoy the now now! ... easier said than done for sure

[@wingapo3020]

Coldplay's first album was 2000, Dido's was 1999. Neither had "been around since the 90's" but yes the 2000s had great music.

[@GoreVidalComicbooks]

@@wingapo3020 Coldplay released eps in the late 90's, and Dido first album was in 1999, in the decade of the 90's. And yes, you are right, about the 2000's having great music.

@@judsonmg Some, but we need adults to step up now, not to punch clocks, but to stand for democracy's core principles. This has too much offense-taking about non-bohemians "not getting me!"

They heard me singing and they told me to stop Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock These days, my life, I feel it has no purpose But late at night the feelings swim to the surface 'Cause on the suburbs the city lights shine They're calling at me, come and find your kind Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small Then we can never get away from the sprawl Living in the sprawl Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains And there's no end in sight I need the darkness someone please cut the lights We rode our bikes to the nearest park Sat under the swings, we kissed in the dark We shield our eyes from the police lights We run away, but we don't know why And like a mirror these city lights shin They're screaming at us, we don't need your kind Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small Then we can never get away from the sprawl Living in the sprawl Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains And there's no end in sight I need the darkness someone please cut the lights They heard me singing and they told me to stop Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small Can we ever get away from the sprawl Living in the sprawl Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains And there's no end in sight I need the darkness someone please cut the lights
