long ass day
It has been one.
I thought about psychedelic music, and how, to me it's a sound, I guess. But it doesn't necessarily need drugs.. it's just a hypnotic aesthetic that is exciting to people.. . Same with art (an escher drawing). It's all a matter of repetitive geometry at times, which in itself is a meditative activity.
It's annoying to me when people assume I could only have my taste in music and art because I do drugs all the time. I don't really. And I have nothing against those who do. Anything psychedelic can just as easily be enjoyed with an open mind.
The term 'pychedelic' draws the same disdain from people, in the same way that 'sexy' does. People just have to get over it and accept that sex and drugs feel alright and are not all evil; Water can nurture you, water can drown you too.
This brings me to the thought I had one time, a question (on EVIL):
'What if the christian God you know is actually Satan fooling you?'
Your old christian satan is known to do that kind of thing, so why not?
CLIP of the Day:
Your truly adores this song,
i want to sing in a band like that

quote me
Today I watched my brother try to kill a mosquito.
As I was enthralled with reading about the alternative Waldorf Education (which is quite spiritual, interconnectedness of life in the cosmos yadda yadda), I jokingly said "No Peter, it's a SENTIENT BEING!" and then I ended with .. "and it needs your blood to live"
"Sentient being, needs your blood."
I HAVE TO PACK for france
BYE
PS- Joni Mitchell makes me cry

MORE Love at first song, Today:
Mind of a Toy- Visage
mmmm Licorice allsorts! i can't stop listening to this wierd-ass song.
I also love abandoned toys. My art is all about abandoned toys: (for some reason it won't let this pic be uploaded 90 degs how its supposed to be. . . .)

....I was led to that cool video through reading about the New Romantic movement... every band affiliated with it excites me a lot.

Love at first listen
Yes, sometimes it takes a while to warm up to a song, and it grows onto you.
Other times, it is love at first listen. Definitely a favorite feeling, and a rare one.
Here's some memorable ones:
Start out with the Montreal band TIGA, I just love the video, love the song:
the wonderfully androgynous Ariel Pink: Gray Sunset
Department of Eagles: No One Does it Like You
Elliott Smith: Between the Bars
Nina Simone: Love me or Leave me (that Piano solo is lovely)
Thank Hank- R. Stevie Moore (written by Victor Lovera)
