Streets & Boulevards
Behind your crystal eyes liebeloved galaxies
of dreams and fantasiesa purple paradise
Behind your tender lips liesa golden feathered lullabyslowly falling to the sky
a one way solitary trip
Forbidden landHow did we get so far apart?
“As I turned the page I would soon find outthat the wondering off will prevent her from
finding happiness.Even black clouds move towards the sun
while the hard rain guides her through darkness.”
Night time in your eyesfrozen wings of butterflies

Forbidden Land(Tino Biddeloo – Elise Caluwae
rts ‘for Charlotte’)
Faith has turned its back on you againInto the curve of life I go in
They say its heaven, but it’s wearing thinMust be the eyes of the dreaming man
Give me hope and I will seek a friendJust in days, all just in days
Oh Maria
Faith has turned its back on you againInto the curve of life where I go in
Oh where I go in
Give me some timeGive me some hopeShow me your wayTo clear this road
Oh Maria, it must be the wayOf the secrets that we shareIt must be the way Of the secrets that we share

(Tino Biddeloo)Berlin
In these streets I’m walking inI touch the stone of some forgotten sin
I’ll carry your shoes childI’ll be your strong wind
Be someone for mercy’s sakeBe someone, don’t you be afraidBecause I’ll carry your shoes
child, I’ll be the strong wind
If they could see you nowIf they could love you now
Like we did in Berlin
When you hold on to faith and belief you will get it done
There will be no more secretsbut you’ll hail my friend
Since she’s gone my heart went greyAll she left was a picture in a frame
It won’t take long now beforeshe becomes a memory down the lane
A sweet memory down the laneIt’s a memory lane of grace
if they could see you nowIf you could find love somehow
Like we did in Berlin intr

A glass of wine and a clear blue sky. I look at you and your eyes meet mine. I couldn’t breathe, my worries washed away just by your smile.
I take your hand, your skin feels soft. A voice so tender, don’t let this stop. I couldn’t think of the thousand words that were running through my mind.
I can not think of a thousand words to say to you. I can not think of one good reason why.
A Thousand Words(Tino Biddeloo)
If this is love, please let it stay. I’ll do anything, I’ll find a way. Let me hold you close. I want to feel your heartbeat close to mine.
I can not think of a thousand words to say to you. I can not think of one good reason why.
If a kiss means more than a thousand words then it could describe what I am feeling now, so come with me. Let’s make love and leave these words behind.

Getting on by yourself is like breathing, he thinks. Even when there’s love that’s dripping off these bedroom walls.
Get lost, she says, because I know you believe that there’s got to be more then a glow on a season. The glory, it’s there, just give it all and feel my tenderness.
But he got lost and paid with diamonds for his true love and his common sense. Hang on to a friend and you might live just another day ahead. Feel my tenderness.
Walking hand in hand with God, makes her feel like some queen of loss. Hang on to a state of grace I swear I’ll trick and trade. But feel my tenderness.
Feeling like a goddess, feeling all the same.I give it to you, loyal, you have to want to be.I give it to you, loyal. I give it to you straight. When it comes to being honest you can be who you want to be. When feeling lost and saved.
Ophelia your love is there ...

In Aimelee’s labyrinthA winding path to God’s honeyWhere she didn’t intend to go
And where she can not stayTo paint in the light of day
The blossomed tree, the season and time. Where only your thoughts remainFor my emotion she won’t stay
It’s like dreaming in black and whiteIt’s like growing slower than time
Can you forgive meFor what I’ve become
I hold no fortune, just a tender bliss
And who am I becomeWhen it’s all said and done
Would I be dreaming in black and whiteOr would I keep the thoughts of a colourful mind
Love is stronger than everWhen a tree is shaking its leafs
It holds no fortune it seeks no wisdomIt listens to the season’s breeze
She has her own little placeCollects cotton and lace
While his head lives in the cloudsit feeds on tendernessNo home to be bound
So they travelled aloneWithout their troubled mindsWithout their reasons to feel alone
From shattered glass and broken dreamsRises dauntless the soul who has fought his fearsWhen days fade awayYour heart feels something straight away
I mean when I sayYour love has saved me all the wayoh hear when I sayDon’t keep this troubled mind so far away
Some stranger has got to doSome feel alive, some are doomedSome are “do”’s and some are “don’t”’s
I mean when I sayYour love has saved me all the wayOh hear when I say Don’t you be someone who’s getting more afraid.
I know I am afraidIt is love that has kept me all the sameI mean when I say
You are like some flower falling from a treeGetting into the summer’s breezeFeeling like a breathe without the insane;
“I mean when I say, I mean when I say”

There’s a price I have to pay
When I get blown away
Unlike wine I don’t feel better with age
In heart shaped clouds I walk a different way
Broken talesand one eyed monsters,

Better Days(Tino Biddeloo)
Today I carry storm and thunder
Feeling like a tiny soldier
In a world that’s far from grey
There’s a price I have to pay
When I get blown away
Unlike wine I don’t feel better with ageIn heart shaped clouds I walk a different way
Broken talesand one eyed monsters,
rollercoaster belly dancers
When God looks awayThere’s a circus that’s taking place and it happens everyday
It’s two steps closer for one big emotionIt’s priceless and it’s safeEvery time I touch your faceBy the end of the day
Let’s get it on by the falling of the dayIt’s two steps closer heaven can wait
I walk towards a dead endIt feels like a rain danceIn my hat I hide rabbits and snakes
A winner digs his own grave
After the lights go down even heaven can waitWhen it’s you and I things get back into shape

Moonstruck at night, ten fingers lost in a dayLove strikes at night, the day that God only saved.
The moon can’t burn her wings, it hidesall the colours on her face.
Close to the skin, ten fingers whisper a smile through her tears.All the tenderness that calls when the phone rings.
Naked on the skin, feeling the wind’s warm breeze.Naked on the skin, while shivering, her heart sings.
Moonstruck at night, how vainly she feathered her wings.Love strikes at midnight, how brightly it marks the shadows on her face.
Naked on the skin, it changes the colour of a broken dream.The wind on her naked skin, she feels like a summer breeze.
Gone…
Perfume(Tino Biddeloo)
(Tino Biddeloo)You’re sweet and divineLike precious wineAll the sweet talk that we share
All the times that you and IIt’s got to make sense girl
Why you and I get together on the moon
The taste of honey on your mindBut all I can say isJust give it some timeTo make your own mistakes
and not to follow mine I’ll come backMore than once girlFeeling like a strangerBut somehowIf there is a timeFor you and ILift your head up to the moon
because in your heart you can touch the
sky
it’s got to make sense girl
Don’t ask me whyYou’re the sweet and divine
The earth is shakingMy heart is running wild

Because I’ll come back, More than once girlFeeling like a stranger, But some how
You’re like a mirror to my soul. Fear the glass or fearit all. Sweet baby brown, a little bit of passion to keep it going on
I can be whatever you want. I can do what-ever you please Share my thoughts so please share my passion
Because I’m feeling a little strange girl Just a little strange girlJust a littlestrange
Once upon a time there was a boy named Charlie. Charlie’s brain had the size of a peanut, but she was a true Alice in Wonderland. She had curly brown hair, she could dance like a fairy floating on her toes and always carried a blossom on her face like she just came running down the hill. While she was dancing, singing and cheering, enjoying her first lover’s attention, Charlie decided to dump her for some blond girl with legs up to her neck.
Charlie’s Girl(Tino Biddeloo)
Her whole world fell apart. Every night she would look up at the sky and cried for hours. She cried so hard that the stars could not handle it anymore. Even the moon got sad and hid behind dark grey clouds. She felt all alone for the very first time. Two weeks later the blond showed up at her doorstep. It seemed Charlie was not telling the truth. In fact Charlie went off to be Charlene and took a surgery trip to Indonesia or something. They fell into each other’s arms and cried until they ended up painting each other’s toenails.
However, this change of event did not help her to shake off the sadness. Until one night Alfred, a little mouse knocked at her window.
Alfred was described to be a suicidal maniac, ignored by cats because he was too much of an intellectual who liked to quote William Burroughs on very inappropriate occasions. Like dogs, cats like to talk about their legal rights, avoid taxes and rip off all the others. They have nine lives to achieve their goal.
Anyway, Alfred whispered to her quite clear that she had to jump over the rainbow. Happiness awaited her at the other end. She frowned her eyebrows and understood she had to take action. In her excitement she slammed the window while Alfred was only halfway through. She got on a little green pony and jumped over the rainbow.

From a distance she could see a tall dark handsome man approaching her. He had brown eyes, dark brown hair and bent his head slightly down. A man kind of like your father.
The green pony got an instant stroke and I had to replace him with a cheaper model so they both got back on a second hand mule named Dingo. The former owner was a Canadian with a drinking problem who shot his wife by accident and then was no longer pretty sure of himself.
They jumped back over the rainbow and her prince got struck by lightening twice. In the beginning they could barely look at each other. But surrounded by so much love and beauty he took a job and went bowling on Thursday nights. They lived happily ever after
Well and then there’s you, you might end up like your mother. Married to an ugly guy like me. It all depends on which side of the rainbow you are.

Gitte Le Bruyn graduated as a visual artist in 2008 from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. For one of her exhibitions, she worked with the music of Tino Biddeloo. One time they reversed the process and Gitte created an animation video inspired by and based on the song “Maria”. She created a series of oil paintings on glass, which she lit and photographed. Through editing of the images, the painting becomes alive, resulting in a digital animation film. The professional editing was done by Ruben Beunckens.
In November 2010 this clip won the Holland Animation Festival.
