song of the evening. (i’m going OUT, y’all!)

yup…6 months from now. i’m thinking about it as an investment in my future happiness.

If I have to do work, there’s no better setting than sitting outside in 80 degree weather and listening to a 90’s-00’s R&B station on pandora (“Drunk on Love” Radio, to be precise).

song of the day: “i mind” by james blake

ever have one of those days where you’re just so soooooooooo grateful for the existence of music and for one musician in particular because the relief you desperately seek and are unable to provide to yourself through drink, drugs, or a conversation with a friend (not necessarily in that order, but perhaps at the moment you need them all unavailable or socially unacceptable considering the time of day or drug you crave) is found by listening to their oeuvre on random in itunes?

i’m having one of those days now…

The debates that surround authenticity have no relationship to popular music as it’s been practiced for more than a century. Artists write material, alone or with assistance, revise it, and then present a final work created with the help of professionals who are trained for specific and relevant production tasks. This makes popular music similar to film, television, visual art, books, dance, and related areas like food and fashion. And yet no movie review begins, “Meryl Streep, despite not being a Prime Minister, is reasonably convincing in ‘The Iron Lady.’
