My Body, A Funeral

All Along the Watchtower

Crimson and Clover, Over and Over

Snapshot: Listening, Watching, Reading, Wearing, Wanting

Listening: to Guns and Guitars by Matt Mason. Mean country beat and some killer lyrics, "can't say no cause they driven crazy by those soul singin', bullet flingin' men that won't mind the stars."

Watching: Tupac, Resurrection. This is the deepest thing i've seen in a long time and totally worth watching. The realest rapper in the world who narrates his own entire life. It's a pretty heavy watch and brings a lot of social issues into my mind. Hated by the general public for his violent lyrics but totally unapologetic and absolutely a product of society, Tupac is basically my hero. (This from some skinny, white boy) Despite being a total thug, Tupac Shakur was a genuinely intellegent guy and read the works of Sun Tzu and Niccolo Machiavelli.

Reading: My text books for the Health Sci course... its just homework.

Wearing: My scarf and thinking how much I will be thankful for it when it actually is Winter.

Wanting: To make a human connection, honestly. Also that I could get off my ass to hit up the gym.

Puffin' like a Zion Train

Don't gain the world and lose your soul,

wisdom is better than silver or gold

RIP Amy Winehouse

Much love to a much celebrated and genuinely talented but generally misunderstood artist. 27 forever, your music will live on.

We sail through endless skies
stars shine like eyes
the black night sighs
The moon in silver trees
falls down in tears
light of the night
The earth, a purple blaze
of sapphire haze
in orbit always

While down below the trees
bathed in cool breeze
silver starlight breaks down the night
And so we pass on by the crimson eye
of great god Mars
as we travel the universe

I'm Seriously Angry...

I seriously am disgusted by Miley Cyrus' (failed) attempt to cover Nirvana's 'Smells like teen spirit'. Not only does it fucking suck to the point that it is a disgrace she also tried to claim that Nirvana and the likes inspired her to become a musician. As if Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains and Hole were about anything other than screaming a big FUCK YOU to the same bullshit mainstream piss that this girl is pumping out now! I personally think she's trying to propagate some kind of 'alt-chick' persona as this isn't the first time she's done something she had no fucking clue about. Anyone remember her pulling the horns in photos a while back?

Oh yeah, you're hardcore...

I'm honestly not exaggerating when I say that I just wish she would die.....

A Haunting Voice

You HAVE to check out Thebrooke's cover of Fleetwood Mac's song 'Landslide'. This world is so fucked that she is still posting on Youtube while Beiber is spewing shit on the world stage. My friend Amy from Opium is for Lovers posted this so I thought I should plug her too. ;)

I own you now...

nocturnality:

“This song is dedicated to my twelve-day-old daughter- and my wife. And, um, there’s been some pretty extreme things written about us- especially my wife, and she thinks everybody hates her now. So, um, this is being recorded, so why don’t you give her a message and say ‘Courtney, we love you’. Okay, ready? On the count of three- One, two, three… Court-

(Crowd:“Courtney, we love you!”)

Thanks.”- Kurt Cobain, Live at Reading 1992

Don't you know just who I am
Take the hand of the wisdoms friend
What is my name?
It will never change
So here it stays
Revolution is my name

Death Whispered a Lullabye

Under the fog there are shadows moving
Don't be afraid, hold my hand
Into the dark there are eyelids closing
Buried alive in the shifting sands

Sleep my child

Speak to me now and the world will crumble
Open a door and the moon will fall
All of your life all your memories
Go to your dreams, forget it all

Sleep my child

The 'Art' in Artist

Where is the good music in the modern age? It seems all anyone wants to listen to nowdays is repetitive club songs and one hit singles from nobody rappers. Where are the Kurt Cobain's of tomorrow and where did the skill in music go. When Billy Ray Cyrus' and Will Smith's children can make chart toppers it really shows how much skill it takes on the part of the artists to make these songs.


I'm becoming depressed by the stagnant music scene. Where is my next favourite band??
