This must be the fifth time I've turned on some form of radio and the exact song that I have been wanting to listen to for hours just comes on. I must have some serious telepathy with RJ's half the world away, and, even scarier, computers all over the world.
Serious shit for all those people who believe in coincidence. Explain this!

I wonder if it's because of the imminent exams that I've had a sudden extreme revival of desire to watch experience and fall in love with the Star Wars original trilogy for the 9,739,703,695th time. I want to watch Luke and Leia swing across the shaft in the Death Star! I want to listen to Leia abuse Han and Chewie (Scruffy looking nerve-hurter, and walking carpet, respectively)! I want to freeze my bum off watching the Hoth scene! I want to cry at the end!there are waaaaay too many moments for me to sit and write down...

The just chopped (chainsawed, rather) three more massive, ancient, historic Ranka Corner trees. Two of them were breaking the underground pipeline. Mildly justified. One of them, an entire ecosystem, was mercilessly massacred. And why? Because it causes allergies, apparently, Allergies. Allergies. For #@$&'s sake, is that any reason to chop down an entire tree??!! Well established fact: Springtime is a season of allergies because of all the pollen in the air. That's like murdering, say, a classmate for giving you the flu. Or something even less serious. Maybe for getting sand in your schoolbag.
I can't even begin to describe the anger. I WILL KILL EVERY ONE OF THEM.

I don't think anybody, and I mean anybody, could ever write a song from the point of view of a rapist/serial killer/child molester, and make it sound absolutely gorgeous and upbeat, as our very own Porcupine Tree.

I have a new love: Wouter De Backer, a.k.a Gotye. There's so much good, beautiful music out there today, and people still rave about people like Guetta and Akon. T-T
Something about Australian music. The mysticism of the Aboriginal culture seeps through it. The stark, majestic landscape. Something just feels different inside me when I look at their art, or listen to their music.
Although, Gotye has a lot of non-aboriginal influenced music, as well. He's just amazing.
Plus, his music videos are brilliant.
