NightWaves – "Sweet Carrie" (2010)

2011/03/11


I came across this because NightWave did a cover of Phil Collins' "In The Air Tonight" (below) that I thought was quite good. I liked this song too though, so I flipped a coin! I was looking for Phil Collins' influence, and this was just one shred of evidence that it is alive, but perhaps not in your face.

Why? Fellow music blogger "jhostation" from "station to station" pointed out that Phil Collins just announced his retirement a week ago. My selection of Collins' "Strangers Like Me" was purely coincidental though.

Enough with the blah blah blah… About that cover…

Deerhunter – "Agoraphobia" (2008)

2011/03/02


i had a dream
no longer to be free

i want only to see
four walls made of concrete

6 by 6 enclosed
soon we're on video oh oh oh

feed me twice a day
i want to fade away
away

Beach House – "Zebra" (2010)

2010/12/31


I've learned a lot this year… or rather taken things to heart that others have been telling me for years. "Don't sweat the small stuff." (Richard Carlson) "Very often we are our own worst enemy." (Louis Binstock) "If you're not having fun, you're doing something wrong." (Groucho Marx) … stuff like that.

I've also found that going with your gut instinct and impulses is being truer to yourself, and it saves a lot of time fretting and worrying about, which is rarely worth it. "Do, or do not. There is no 'try.'" (Yoda in "The Empire Strikes Back")

I have also learned that I like the sounds of zebras, duplicating them with G and my sister-in-law, and this song named for the magnificent beast. Listen for yourself:

Happy New Year Everyone!
