I'm sorry, Brenda Lee

i left so long, like i had no intention of coming back:

I ' M S O R R Y

boys and girls, you attempt to harness the mystic's power in this life time. well it's not going to happen, i am sorry. the bolt has been done from the inside, and i'm sorry but i know for a fact that your key is on that side. the car is at full speed but the gas take is toward empty, and we are no where near our destination, i'm so sorry. mistakes are for when we are young, but i can't tell you how disconcerting that is. that for every good there's a bad, and for every mistake i have made i have made one right. but at the point you are at you can hardly remember the idle mind, the nonsensical thought process and dispersing dissapointment, as it became one with the atmosphere.

the only thing i am actually sorry about is that i have left you so long, on your lonesome.

stand by this mang

i feel like every time i start to get down to a mamas and papas track i am sorely dissapointed. why should my expections be crumbled so? is it because every good track by the group is a none-sufficient cover. in order to prove the point we can talk about some more black folk from the 60's, ben e king. if you recognize the name at all, it is most likely a recall from stand by me, but we aren't all as lucky as to for some reason be of such dislike of the mamas and papas. i'm not really quite sure what it is. maybe it is because i hear there not a single thing wrong, and not a single thing to catch my attention, it drones together in the organized melody that it is. i will just shrugg my shoulders and wonder where they grabbed the ideas from, chances are they will exceed expectations. i unfortunately just found the album today, so i am not sure really what to expect, but i felt like i should share my findings, i rather enjoyed doris days take on latino music. you should let me know what you think, i will be sure to get back to you. the track spanish harlem is an instant classic, and the reasons for my recent attacks. if you have the patients to finish the artical  you will find the track after the pause.

Spanish Harlem

Ben E. King Spanish Harlem

laurel hardy

When I was young, in days before I started to really watch television, I would take note, of special occations, in which my father would take my brother and I to the old movie night at the library, we loved to watch those films with him, in the basement of the library, on a large projector, with rarely a large crowd, and always in good humor. One of the most common film that we came across was laurel and hard, I saw quite a few of these episodes, at the library movies, im pretty sure on most occations they would show a laurel and hardy before they would show the feature film, unless the theme for the evening was infact laurel and hardy, in which we were all in for a goofy treat.

When I saw dick van dyke’s impression, I was reminded of the fact that they are not always silent films, laurel and hardy must have bridged the gap into sound, but I don’t remember them as that, as bridging the gap, as even talking, they were slap stick genius, that can have film footage full of white in imperfections, and still portray a flever idea. It’s not that hard to watch folks, maybe, and most unfortunately you don’t have the same fond memories attaching you to the subject in hand, but if you are bored, or if you happen to wonder what a master piece was like, in the 1930’s then you should poke your little eyeball at some of this stupendousy.

TAKE THE LEAP OF FAITH

jesus,

well now i have gone and done and opened up the can. these heroes behind politics are not only some of the most bad ass dudes from the 80's but they are also some of the godfathers of shoe gaze. some of you might know shoe gaze as drony music. you are wrong. shoe gaze is basically an idea formed by the mentality behind a few key bands. one of which are my dudes jesus and mary chain. if you are still confused about shoes gaze, like many of us, just listen, understand that it is thick, and it is dense but underneath and above, there are melodies. in lots of cases we might be hearing a different melody, and maybe when you are played even softer still i am not sure if i have ever quite heard you like that. not once do you seem to be unfamiliar, and that is the way i should have you, like all the best, nothing short of classic and never less than, well a riot.

i have heard that the jesus and mary chain likened to the sex pistols on their psyco candy tour, consequently their first tour. they aparently got coked out and start large riots. they were asked not to return back to a few venues, possibly one in manchester, check my facts, i'm not sure. but at any rate these dudes know how to party, they knew what the future would be like, and they wrote immaculate music for bill murray to run around half awake to with scarlett johanson, so there are alot of perks to hoping on to the bandwagon, and only a few cock sucking leaches. here's some music:
