WWTB
So this is the first week of 2012 where there’s been more than one thing worth buying. Welcome to 2012, kids.
- First Aid Kit - The Lion’s Roar (buy the CD/buy the MP3s)
- Kathleen Edwards - Voyageur* (buy the CD/buy the MP3s)
- Nada Surf - The Stars Are Indifferent to Astronomy** (buy the CD/buy the MP3s)
- Rodrigo y Gabriela - Area 52 (buy the CD/buy the MP3s)
* And this was actually already released, but didn’t seem to warrant a WWTB all on its own…and I’m a slacker.
** I don’t care what else comes out this year, this album has already won “Most Pretentious Album Title of the Year”.
Saturday treat!
Gotye - Somebody I Used to Know (featuring Kimbra)
Sometimes, at tuneage, we accidentally let great music slide past our radar. Allow me to now rectify this mistake and present Gotye’s Somebody That I Used to Know.
I love the Peter Gabriel and 80s pop influence in this song but it’s the music video that really won me over. Unlike the narrative arc within the lyrics, the music video isn’t necessarily trying to tell a story. It emotes and I find it to be at once be enchanting and heartbreaking.
This song has really launched Goyte’s international career and he will even be playing at Coachella in April.
Great video. The song is thoughtfully magical.
TIME
Take some time.
Take as much as needed.
However, understand that it’s previous.
It’s valuable.
Hell, it’s the most expensive thing you own.
Just think…
Everyone needs it.
Everyone wants it.
Everyone only spends it on things they deem deserving of it.
It goes fast when you enjoy it.
It goes slow when you pay too much attention.
There is too much of it when you’re young.
There is never enough of it when you’re old.
There is no stopping it when you’re in love.
There is no speeding it up when you’re in trouble.
You cannot control how much you have of it.
You cannot control when it runs out.
So…
Take some time.
Take your time.
And use it wisely.
“if I take my time, do I also take yours?”
Awesome. This happened last night. :)
Thanks for putting this together, Frankie!
