What are you listening to?

[Faust]

/\ Yea, they really don't. I would delete them.

Hallelujah - Leonard Cohen. I don't know why - every time I listen to this, everything just falls in place.

[Johnny]

Fantastic lyrics! I was pretty sure guns would come up somewhere in it. I like in particular the line "this comes as a total suprise" (sic). Seems so proper and mundane in the context of all the shit dam yo yalls.

[Johnny]

Apparently there are 80 verses to Hallelujah. I was listening again to Famous Blue Raincoat recently, love it.

That is another favorite. Between these two and If It be Yor Will, I am ready to worship at LC's altar.

Yea, I heard that about Hallelujah on NPR recently. Apparently it's the most covered song in the world. Incredible.

Matt, here are some more rap lyrics before it's too late - "Diggiticheck yourself, before you wreck yourself."

[Fade to Black]

Never too late

by the way, it's "chiggity check yo self..." ;)

My funny valentine--Chet Baker

is your figure less than greek
is your mouth a little weak
when you open it to speak
are you smaaaart...?

but don't change a hair for me
not if you care for me
stay little valentine stay

Tom Waits... Long Way Home

Well I stumbled in the darkness
I'm lost and alone
Though I said I'd go before us
And show the way back home
There a light up ahead
I can't hold onto her arm
Forgive me pretty baby but I always take the long way home

Money's just something you throw
Off the back of a train
Got a head full of lightning
A hat full of rain
And I know that I said
I'd never do it again
And I love you pretty baby but I always take the long way home

I put food on the table
And roof overhead
But I'd trade it all tomorrow
For the highway instead
Watch your back if I should tell you
Love's the only thing I've ever known
One thing for sure pretty baby I always take the long way home

You know I love you baby
More than the whole wide world
You are my woman
I know you are my pearl
Let's go out past the party lights
Where we can finally be alone
Come with me and we can take the long way home
Come with me, together we can take the long way home
Come with me, together we can take the long way home

Ricardo Villalobos @ Kristal Glam Club Bukarest.

I remember someone saying somewhere - not here - that Ricardo built his reputation on being the worlds best techno dj and is now just a mediocre house dj. Well, this is a techno set. If anyone has a proper soundsystem and need some 4/4 for the floor, this set is ridic.

the new solo album by the Knife's lead singer Karen Dreijer, called Fever Ray - Fever Ray. It's less bumpin than Silent Shout and more dreamy/mellow, but still sounds like a Knife album which is good.

[sam_tem]

a lot of very dissapointing new albums:

asobi seksu - hush
ugh, so grating. makes me want to go back to the last one to see if i really did enjoy it

A Camp - Colonia
never heard their first one, but this blows

Aidan_Moffat_And_The_Best-Ofs-How_To_Get_To_Heaven_From_Scotland-(Advance)-2009-DV8
a boring version of arab strap


i've found this to be kind of addictive lately though:

Zu - Carboniferous

Tori Amos... Blood Roses

I'll never forget seeing her for the first time live,
back in the 90s, sitting there on stage between her
two pianos, a breathtaking experience ...
