The Useless Critic 2.0

Song of the Day I thought this was a good way to usher in 2014. Here's the official playlist I made yesterday. Enjoy!

Song of the Day (let's pretend this covers tomorrow) Come tell me your story to unload your glorious grief Where you are the valet of honor and I am the thief And don't ever mention the stains that you left on my track How from a beautiful girl I became someone ruined and wrecked Was all in your back, all in your back So I spin in the dance of your absence and put on a show But why do I smile baby, you of all people should know The one that you loved died a long time ago You can't do me wrong with charity until You'll exhaust your lies and remedies, you will But with your voice and melodies you kill, you kill Your version of glory is dark and it's covered with sin And I wanna dive in an ocean of pink tourmaline I've seen the pure souls, they exist and they fly And I think I could live with it, I know I can now You can't do me wrong with charity until You'll exhaust your lies and remedies, you will But with your voice and melodies...

this is an insanely gorgeous song. I know:  not the best post, but really. this woman is an underrated talent.

Today required a lot of thought. I finally came to a decision, though, falling back on the song I've had stuck in my head for the past... month. And with good reason, as you should PLEASE listen, the French do it all better: I honestly feel this is one of the most beautiful love songs of the past 15 years. It's just very genuine and heartfelt, which are qualities I feel can be lost in most love songs anymore, under some gloss of fake sentiment. I mean- isn't that what love should be, laying your head down? I met Keren Ann last summer. I think she may have been high but either/or it was one apathetic transaction!  It seems like every story told about us isn't meant to be You fly on wings of gold all the way back home to me But what I'm thinking of just this time Why don't you lay your head down in my arms, in my arms Lay your head down in my arms, in my arms You know my love this is no dream of mine But the way you ride those waves makes me want to ...

Before I leave for the day, I'd like to share with you my experiences seeing/meeting Keren Ann and seeing David Lynch. David Lynch spoke about meditation because he is a diehard fanatic meditation fiend. I am sorry if that sentence made no sense, but if you ever see him speak, EVER, or just youtube the dude, you will know what I mean. he made a foundation dedicated to it, for the love of God! The type he specializes in is TRANSCENDENTAL MEDITATION which has a myriad of benefits. It's worth checking out: http://www.tm.org/ Well David and a renowned researcher in that field (names are escaping me right now) gave about an hour-long talk on it, which was mostly Q and A. David Lynch is just what you would expect in person (hair, strange voice, etc) and so much more. at one point, WE WERE TWO FEET AWAY FROM EACH OTHER. MULHOLLAND DRIVE As for Keren Ann, she performed a phenomenal, intimate and surprisingly upbeat live show. The woman is very talented. I got drunk ...
