I'm thinking of a very menial ink on my finger. Lines or a line. Tonight or tomorrow. 

JACK WHITE's BLUNDERBUSS

The best thing is you are listening to the whole album top to bottom on repeat and it doesn't feel long or awful in certain parts. And you're doing this by your lonesome at the school library and just chillen. Nothing matters except the beats and the voice into your ears. And I imagine if I did this with God's gospels, I'd be a better human. Skip the religion talk-

HOW BROKEN IS HE

WHAT HAS LOVE DONE TO HIM

DOES HE LOVE LOVE

HE IS SO FED UP

HE'S JUST BURST

IS HE LYING ?

HOW LONG I'VE WAITED FOR HIS SOLO DEBUT

HIS STYLES

YOU GO LOUD TO ENIGMATIC TO LITERAL METAPHORS TO MELODIES

HE WRENCHES ME INSIDE OUT

AND MY ORGANS ARE NOTHING

TO HIM

THEY CHURN FOR HIM

LOVE INTERRUPTION

I want love to, roll me over slowly

Stick a knife inside me and twist it all around

I want love to grab my fingers gently

slam them in a door way, put my face into the ground

I want love to, murder my own Mother

Take her off to somewhere, like hell or up above

I want love to, change my friends to enemies

Change my friends to enemies and show me, how it’s all my fault

I won’t let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me

I won’t let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me

I won’t let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me, anymore

I want love to, walk right up and bite me

Grab a hold of me and fight me, leave me dying on the ground

And I want love to spin my mouth wide open

And cover up my ears and never let me hear a sound

And I want love to forget that you offended me

Or how you have defended me

And everybody let me down

I want love to, change my friends to enemies

Change my friends to enemies and show how it’s all my fault

I won’t let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me

I won’t let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me

I won’t let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me, anymore

BLUNDERBUSS

Demons in your pocket

That sang romance

Performed a dance inside your silver locket

…

You grab my arm

And left with me

But you were not allowed to

You took me to a public place to quietly blend into

Such a trick

Pretending not to be doing what you want to

But seems to be

That everybody does every wakin’ moment

…

I laid you down and touched you like the two of us both needed

Safe to say that others may not approve of this and pleaded

So selfish would be there crying

And who’d be brave to argue

Doing what two people need is never on the menu

HYPOCRITICAL KISS

AND WHO THE HELL’S IMPRESSED BY YOU

MISSING PIECES

I was in the shower so I could not tell that my nose was bleeding

Dripped down my body to the floor right below my feet and

I looked in the mirror at my face, I thought I had a disease

…

I woke up and my hands were gone, yeah

I looked down and my legs were long gone

I fell forward with my shoulder, but there’s nobody there

Japan Keepsakes

I learned some new outfit things to think about whilst browsing Dropsnap the last few days.

EXHIBIT A
From these girls, we learn that we MUST INVEST IN A PAIR OF COLOURFUL WILD PRINTED TIGHTS. Prints to GO FOR: butterflies, dull pastels, VERTICAL lines. Prints to AVOID: florals (they are so... OVER) and neon brights (just no).

They also teach us that for ladies, spring make up is KEY to becoming cute. Whether you have cheekbones or not, BLUSH IT OUUUUTTTTTT.

EXHIBIT B
From this random girl from the streets of Tokyo, we learn that WHITE PLATFORMS are SOOOO FRESH. I want a pair for the sun life..... Please. Black platforms are so... DONE AND OVER WITH. I HAVE SO MANY PAIRS ANYWAYS. I want white platforms. Do I just spray paint my black ones white !??!!!?!?!? Also, natural colored hair is USELESS. Hahahaha.

Now this band is far from Japanese... t.A.T.u. was a Russian girl group... I hear they were a lesbian girl groiup ?? Sth like that.. But interesting how I found out about them was through the Swedes. The Swedes, you would think would only listen to Swedish music since there's SO MUCH GOOD SWEDISH music out there ! Think Lykke Li, Peter, Bjorn, and John, and Husky Rescue. But anyways, t.A.T.u. keeps singing GOMENASAI throughout the song, befitting since that word is the song title... it means SORRY in Japanese. LOL.

EXHIBIT C
Again, check out the blush action. I will go home tonight and blush my cheeks out to get the similar effects. If it works, I'll take a picture. If it doesn't (which is most likely... Sadly...) then I will just get depressed and write a poem, yeah ?
Also from this girl, we learn that BLUE HAIR RULES. Must get my hands on that Manic Panic... but also the belt. Her outfit is pretty hideous in my opinion, but the belt just makes it look real nice and put together. Can all belts do this ? NO !! ONLY GET BELTS WITH A MIDDLE BUCKLE PIECE. Get a black and gold one for simple VINTAGE look that you can carry out all four seasons. Get a COLOURED or TEXTURIZED one for the winter (hint: Burberry Prorsum fw 2013, photo below !)

M A Y B E E E E E E E

MAYBE BECAUSE I DIDN'T WORK FOR THE WHOLE WEEK

MAYBE BECAUSE IT'S BEEN SUNNY AND I'VE BEEN CRAVING LONGER HAZY HOURS

MAYBE BECAUSE IT IS FINALS TIMEZZZZZ

AND I WANT TO AVOID EVERYTHING RELATED TO THE STUDIES

MAYBE

JUST MAYBE

PERCHANCE

PERHAPS !!!!!

THAT IS WHY I HAVE BEEN FINDING & COLLECTING MUSIC HERE AND THERE.

THE PLAYLIST (ISH) SO FAR (ISH)

1. Grapes EP Mini Mix- RL Grime.. POSTED ABOUT 21 HOURS AGO. This is easy listenin'. It's not heavy, it's not rap, it's not pop, but it's like everything in between and hitting the right codes. I think it's super girly at parts (CLICK CLICK GO FOR IT GIRLS !!) but it should be "manly" enough for men.. Is it weird that I genderfy tracks !???!?!! But ya know what I mean.
http://soundcloud.com/wedidit-collective/grapes-ep-mini-mix-rl-grime
Also check out WEDIDIT COLLECTIVE's other uploaded track if you feel like it. Not as good as this, but it's a totally different feel.

2. I DIDN'T KNOW by Tristesse Contemporaine. This band I was so blessingly (blessingly is not a real word btw) introduced by my lovely French friends, Lise & Ed. The band's from Paris, pretty new. Pretty hot right now. It reminds me of DRIVE (RYAN GOSLING !!! SWOON !!!!) OST. Which is why I'm even more obsessed. So good.

3. DAYTIME NIGHTTIME by Tristesse Contemporaine

4. LOVE by 김C !!!!! My favourite Korean man :') :') with a solo album, Priority !!! AWH YEAH. This ain't my favourite track off his solo EP actually, I'm really into 옥상에서 부르는 노래 (song you sing on the roof ???? literal translation..) but this seems to be his title track. Seeing that he has released an official M/V for it already. Berlin has done him well, eh ? K-indie goes minimal....

5. OUT OF THE GAME by Rufus Wainwright + Helena Bonham Carter. I've always had a love/hate relationship with Helena Bonham Carter, because she is SOOOOO TALENTED and SOOOOOO AMAZING at whatever she does. Excpet... she's going out with Tim Burton.. ew. And she's really creepy as hell. Kinda a psycho. But look at this vid, she's WORKED HER CHARMS ON ME ALL OVER AGAIN. Sigh. And with Rufus's voice just swelling out... I don't know what to do except to smile blindly and stupidly into my laptop screen. (Full screen this)

6. And for all the Bowie fans out there.. SPACE ODDITY (original m/v) by David Bowie !

There are more tracks I wanna share, but I'm too tired. Six is enough, yeah ?

If ya got some good tunes SEND EM SEND EM EMAIL EMAIL COMMENT COMMENT LINK ME LINK ME.

And a bonus cut... of............

The days are all meshed and intertwined together
Yesterday's worries

are 

erased but not undo-able

Future is a blessing

supposedly but dependent on the present

And all the actions 

Your brain

Echoing through 

ringing by

While you're trapped in a dull haze 

as if breathing in and out of an oval shell

Outside voices fuzzy backgrounds immobility

Lids half closed squint squint blink breathe
