Music Box (3/9/2011 UPDATE)

If I picked a Chris Rea song to represent me, it would probably have to be "Set Me Free."

I have some homework to do. I know David Grey and Midnight oil. The rest I am unfamiliar. Are they all Aussie bands? Good for you! Thanks for doing this. I'll learn more about you AND music. WeeHhhhh! MT

music that describes oneself...there is no one song. my list would be: Chris Rea - Auberge Cold Chisel - Rosaline Mumford & sons - Roll away your stone Cat Empire - Hello David Grey - Babylon Midnight oil - Scream in the blue Ian Dury & the blockheads - Fucking Ida Great post as always...hugs and kisses j xox That's a start Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale Her infinite variety. Other women cloy The appetites they feed, but she makes hungry Where most she satisfies. For vilest things Become themselves in her, that the holy priests Bless her when she is riggish. ~~ from Antony & Cleopatra

You know what I mean? Mr. Simple (whose anything but)? I know. Even I’m wondering why anyone has given me access to a typewriter and the internets. I felt the words, music and visuals that Sinead expressed on Troy were unified. The woman I was with the first afternoon we saw it together immediately considered it as an allegory to our relationship as well as reflections of that of Maude Gonne and Yeats. Dream big, be pompous. Sometimes when the singers get put into the videos or the structure of the song, even when it is their own song, it makes the experience smaller and more difficult to relate to. Especially as Sinead was an unknown cipher at the time I thought there was plenty of space in her interpretation to allow people to ‘insert their face’ here. Neither my friend nor I look anything like Sinead, Maude or Yeats but we could imagine standing in front of a building that explodes with lust and foolish passion over someone who was probably dangerous to know. (I really do ramble, don’t I?) I’ll put a sock in it now and go bike riding.

I had a best friend in high school. One of the nails in the coffin of our friendship (not in a good way, don’t ask) was the Video of Troy. I excitedly had him over to share it because I was instantly in love with Sinead and knew this time it was for real. As soon as he saw her covered in mud and wattle he got disgusted and almost had to leave the room. (Frankly I think the shaved head already had him on edge). I don’t need a best friend to want to bang a secret love (I don’t mind sharing fantasies but really, I can get the job done without a crew) but revulsion because a woman seems wild? I wasn’t sure what part of ‘perfect’ he didn’t understand. And I can fuck to just about any music or no music, as long as she says ‘yes’, nods her head, blinks if the restraints are too encumbering or at least agrees not to press charges afterwards. I’m an uncomplicated date; one might almost say ‘simple’. You know what I mean? Mr. Simple (whose anything but)? MT

I generally listen to something kind of chill and electronic for sex. As to what song or songs represent me, I'll have to give that some thought. Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale Her infinite variety. Other women cloy The appetites they feed, but she makes hungry Where most she satisfies. For vilest things Become themselves in her, that the holy priests Bless her when she is riggish. ~~ from Antony & Cleopatra

I am flattered, Aura. Lemme know what you think. I am betting some will appeal more than others (it's only natural.) Morphine is probably the best of the best on that list, so maybe start there! MT

Good answer. Very, very, very, very good answer. MT
| ||
|
So we can 'get it on'? LOL I like all sorts of music for all sorts of moments or moods. You'll see. But thank you for replying. Good to know that about you. Just in case I have practical use for the information. MT

I bet you look very cute all raging out and sweaty in the mosh pit. MT

|
Is it better to give or receive your "list", Lips dear? HAHA MT

Stay tuned (haha get the tuned joke) for other lists than. I'm sure we can accommodate you. I am thinking acid jazz/Morphine today. And I know you like the Morphine!
