Played this song during a writing exercise in my class. Children were confused. Children didn’t know what track and field is. All around, another successful day in an ESL classroom.

Stars of Track and Field You Are

I obtained a file cabinet and stuffed it with important documents. As I stood, relishing in accomplishment, I realized that I hadn’t purchased a fire proof model. If my house were to ever burn bright like a Christmas tree, so … Continue reading

The David Bowie and Trent Reznor collaboration has been in my head all day. I went to Youtube to find a video to watch, release the obsession for the time being. Instead, I ended up listening to Fugazi. Repeater + 3 songs was momentually to my development as a person, musician and consumer. I have this album memorized. I could play the whole disc on the little record player lodged in the back of my head. Just close my eyes, and listen to them somewhere in DC, just bashing people over their fat heads.

To Die By Yourside, Such A Heavenly Way to Die

Its refreshing to hear basslines that aren’t excessive or merely dotted root notes. Still not sure if the vocal phrasing is tolerable. The tone is nice, especially early in the morning.

There is a natural romance to this video. Watching him run his fingers across her neck is beyond romantic. Often, I am pulled so strongly toward things that I can’t believe I actually enjoy. This is one of these things. There isn’t even anything that interesting about the tune.

This is the Wasteland

I have been told that the Devil is dead. Not true. In fact, the devil exists in what is called Open House. I will be in my room from 2:42 – 8:30 tonight. Some of that time will be spent … Continue reading

There are many moments in which I openly mock this video. Despite that, I still take Morrissey and his music, especially this song, very seriously. I’m not sure what that ability of his is, but Its certainly valuable. I can think of very few artists of any vein who inspire my loyality while constantly embarrassing me.

Wake Me When It’s Over, Wake Me Please.

My friend believes that I am a schmooze. She has informed me of this and details my schmoozing exploits to our acquaintances. Still, my ability lives on. The point being there is a short list in my mind, a quick … Continue reading
