How has Volkswagen Blues influenced other musicians? Jean Morency, et al., Romans de la route et voyages identitaires. Québec: Nota Bene (collection "Terre américaine"), 2006. The ending is not what you would expect. I really enjoyed that there was not a "perfect" ending for these characters. But one of my favorite instances is a romantic encounter where the protagonist prematurely explodes when "The Grasshopper" attempts to ride him out in the open. Apparently nature really did it for him and he just couldn't contain himself. It was adorable. urn:lcp:volkswagenblues0000poul:epub:b8311e93-3413-4b9d-85f5-ea6b67f2b137 Foldoutcount 0 Identifier volkswagenblues0000poul Identifier-ark ark:/13960/t58f1fz7t Invoice 1652 Isbn 0771071582 Following the Oregon Trail was interesting, but there are some droll moments. I do still appreciate the references and allusions to other material. All in all, I won't change the star rating, but will note that on a re-read I liked this book less than my first encounter with it.

The pastel Fjord Blue (L 434) was available from 1958, and Capri also made a re-appearance at about that time. The somewhat understated Slate Blue (L 361) was offered from 1959 alongside the equally sombre Indigo Blue (L 436). Gulf Blue (L 390) came along in 1960, and the popular and long lasting Sea Blue (L 360) followed from August 1963 until 1966 (below). Jacques Poulin drew me into his bilingual world, where the French Canadian language and world meets with the American one. We learn about the conquest, we travel with them, we feel with them... Isn't it what we ask from a book ? To learn and to feel ? Ocean Blue (L 57) came crashing in in 1976, accompanied by Barrier Blue (L 52) a year later. Florida Blue (LA5A) below made its debut in 1979 and was available on Beetles as well as Polos and Golfs from that era. River Blue (LK6V) was a lovely green tinged metallic from this late air-cooled, early water-cooled era. The contradictory sounding Deep Light Blue (LE6P) was offered from 1986, alongside Dove (LA5Z) which always looked nice on the Golf. A host of new blues came along in 1988, including Blue (LD5V), Monza (LE5L) above, Marine (LA5B), Biskava (LB5Z), Surf Blue (LD5B) and Deep Sea Blue (LD6A). The dark Orly Blue (LP5Z), Jade (LN6V) and Bright Blue (LP5V) appeared in 1989. The striking Calypso (LA6Z) joined VWs blues in 1990. The Volkswagen Beetle symbolizes both nostalgia and freedom in the song. It represents a means of escape and serves as a metaphor for the journey to self-discovery. 3. What are some key themes explored in Volkswagen Blues?

The vivid Olympic Blue (L 51P) broke cover in 1973 alongside another of VW’s rather non-descript blues, Biscay (L 52) and Alaska (L 96). Ontario (L 95) followed a year later and was joined by the popular and now wonderfully retro looking Miami (L 51) – below – and Laguna (L 50) in 1975. Marathon Blue (L 96) was used on the Marathon Beetles of the time, while Ancona Blue (L 97) was a lovely metallic that looked particularly good on Cabriolets.

In the opening years of the ‘60s, Volkswagen added a raft of gorgeous and it has to be said totally timeless turquoise hues, including Turquoise itself (L 380), Pacific (L 398), the iconic Bahama Blue (L 519) below and the equally evocative Pastel Blue (L 391).

At the end of the journey, the couple find Théo and to their surprise he is suffering from amnesia and paralysis, he is unable to remember his brother. However, as a result of this, Jacques finds the inspiration to write a new book and he seemingly has a fresher outlook on life, as though he is finally affirmed as to his true identity. Furthermore, the couple end up having a rather sceptical view of the ideological American dream, perhaps because they have travelled such a long way through the vast land of North America only to find Théo terminally ill rather than the wealth and prosperity that they had hoped for.

Volkswagen Blues resonated with audiences when it was released due to its relatable themes and poetic lyrics. The song became an anthem for those longing for freedom and searching for their place in the world. 8.
