i have been listening to incredable amounts of INTERPOL lately - right now i am stuck on the last song on the cd - which would be - Leif Erikson - the words and the music completely fit the entire mood that i am in right now - his voice is so thick and hollow sounding - it sounds like it is eminating from this deep well of dispair - large and looming over every failed relationship and torrid romance - i am so in love with this record

yeah, it's a wonderful record...i would say it's majestic. so powerful and beautiful. and their gig i went to in october was just incredible, one of these moments where you feel completely overfilled with happiness. it never ceases to amaze me that music can do this to you... erm, yes. someone else on this list (sorry, forgot who it was) was talking about a teacher and belle & sebastian... this morning we talked about music with my spanish teacher and it turned out that he loves them! yay! weird, though, you sit in a spanish class and someone asks the teacher what he's got in his minidisc player right now, and he says belle & sebastian, and you just gasp...hm. nice. he's a very cool guy anyway. talking about b&s, richard's dj-set at the smile birthday in manchester recently was fantastic. this city needs someone like him who doesn't play "indie" stuff you can hear everywhere else. i think. but then i've only been here for 3 months and haven't seen everything yet. although a lot... i'm still looking for a club night with more american indie pop, indie rock, postrock etc....but maybe that's too specialized. or something. whatever. yet another person on this list (hannah?) was talking about all tomorrow's parties...really think i might go this year. i've actually managed to post all my sinister christmas exchange gifts, yay. wonder what i will get... anyway, i wish everyone happy christmas days! anne. -- +++ GMX - Mail, Messaging & more http://www.gmx.net +++ NEU: Mit GMX ins Internet.
