Band-Aid

And you'll be my Gram and my Johnny too.

First Aid Kit är för bra. De passar för bra. Och Emmylou blev snabbt en stor favorit hos mig.

"Like a true nature's child"



Well, let's just say that I'm way too fed up with all the bitching around to even give a shit about why some people wants me to feel like shit. I just don't give a damn right now.

I feel pretty good actually. I went to the mall earlier today because I wanted to try on a pair of colourful jeans. The looked great on the model, not so great on me. So I didn't buy them, but I managed to find a pair of beige chinos, a white shirt and a blouse, very similar to the one Penny Lane, a.k.a. Kate Hudson, is wearing in my absolute favourite movie: Almost Famous.

I have an old pair of manchester trousers that doesn't fit me anymore that I'm going to make a skirt of. It will look similar to the one she's wearing. Penny Lane is a true inspiration to me. Believe me when I say that I will write more about Almost Famous in the future. Most definately.

"Get your motor runnin'
Head out on the highway
Lookin' for adventure
And whatever comes our way
Yeah darlin' go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And explode into space"

The Sounds sounds pretty good. The song below is stuck in my head and I've got a nasty headache called Rock 'n' Roll. Not that I'm complaining about it. It's the opposite, actually, I like it. That's why you should listen to it. Go ahead and listen to it, now.

I don't know why but somehow my interest for the Beatles has grown, maybe it's because I saw a documentary about John Lennon two weeks ago, or maybe it's because their songs are like poetry written by hopeless romantics. Well, I like it! A lot actually, because I'll be listening to "Here comes the sun" when the first signs of spring shows up on my doorstep. I'll listen to "Let it be" when I think of something that cannot be changed. And "Penny Lane" will play in my mind everytime I return to my hometown in the future. Because although I want to travel and see the world, I'll always remember and love my hometown.

I like Oasis. Too bad the band broke up. Right now I'm trying to learn how to play Wonderwall on my guitar, I don't think it'll be that hard. The songs made by Oasis gives me a retro feeling, they'd fit better in the 60's, but somehow they made it in the 90's and early 00's. Maybe there is hope out there, somewhere.

Patti Smith. Patti Smith. I've bought her book "Just Kids" but I haven't started reading it yet. But I will. Very soon. Sometimes when I've got nothing better to do, I find myself searching for artistic, creative and beautiful pictures on Google. And I often write the names of people who were big in the 60's, 70's and 80's. I don't know how many times I've typed "Patti Smith" in the column, but I know it's enough to call me a fan. A fan of her music, poetry and style. She's a real artist. And I think she's beautiful, for being real.

It never really occured to me that some of the members (read: the vocalist David Gilmour) of the legendary English rock band Pink Floyd would be as handsome as he used to be. But besides from that, I've had the song "Wish you were here" on my mind the entire day. It's really a great piece of music, and if you haven't heard it already I suggest you do it right away. Of you go! (I really have to learn how to use youtube in my blog)
