song of the day: 12 = 3 (Here Come the Doctors) by ima robot

Twelve equals three
A line wrapped around a string
Girls in the classroom... concentrate, boy!
A line around gravity
Spiritual individual
Corrosion and humanityl
The mathematics of love
And the science, insanity

Living it up in the atmosphere
Nobodys dies if the heart is here

Kiss me goodbye
For the doctors are comin'
We all know why
Because I wasn't for you
Here we go again
There's no passers-by
Here we don't live a lie
Here we all gonna die
In the end

Standing on the corner
Holes in my shirt
Girls drivin' by
Oh come here. . .don't flirt
'Cause she's never had a girlfriend
And I don't want one either
And I don't want the people
Knowing that I was smoking ether
I've been figuring out signs
In my spare time
I've been thinking about the reasons
She's alive

Livin' it up in the atmosphere
Nobody dies if the heart is here

Tick tock
Tick tock
Rock signs
And people got rock signs
And people see stars sometimes
And some people raise cadavers
But not me, I see
The sun is made of string
Lights out from the underworld
People talk about God
Are they insane?
I don't think so
I say they're maybe spreading lives
Spreading it around
And feels good
In your skin

i've been listening to too much air. therefore, when i talk to people it's all in mixed up french/english. haha.

song of the day: in reverie by std - reminds me of conor... hmm...

Bottles breaking on my face are
only your reminder of your love
I lost it a long time ago
cause I dream that when i knew you I dont know

So once again I swim In Reverie
without your love
so long ago I cant remember now
where we began

Smell of burning photographs slides
slowly to my nostrils I try
remember the soft silence of
summer sweating in the evening

So once again I swim In Reverie
without your love
so long ago I cant remember now
where we began [3x]

p.s. i miss you and luurrrve you a lot. i think you should call me. cos i need to make fun of you and tell you how cute you are.

coming soon....

song of the day: re-offender by travis - i really want the new albummy.

Keeping up appearances
Keeping up with the Jones'
Fooling my selfish heart
Going through the motions

But I'm fooling myself
I'm fooling myself
Cause you say you love me
And then you do it again, you do it again
You say your sorry's
And then you do it again, you do it again

Everybody thinks you're well
Everybody thinks I'm ill
Watching me fall apart
Falling under your spell

But you're fooling yourself
You're fooling yourself
Cause you say you love me
And then you do it again, you do it again
You say your sorry's
And then you do it again, you do it again
And again and again and again and again

pic of the day: adam green - can i PLLLEEEEEEEEAAASE marry him?

i heart adam green.

little blurbs about the adam.....

"Adam Green is never going to read what you write about him. He is the biggest loner that you'll ever meet. He's never had a girlfriend and most of his sexual experiences over the last few years have been with hookers.

If you want to find him, he's probably at Kellogg's diner or watching a movie. Either way, he is most likely spaced out with his mouth hanging open. He works on songs most days. He was bullied in high school, so he needs love all the time�

His last album, GARFIELD was pretty good, but he recorded it so long ago that he doesn't care about it so much anymore. He thinks that his new album, FRIENDS OF MINE is much better. So does Geoff Travis and everybody else that's heard it. Adam loves to sing and he loves his friends. He wants everyone to know that Jane Scarpantoni and Steven Mertens did an awesome job writing string arrangements for his new songs-and that this is the first time that he has ever recorded an album in a professional recording studio.

He thinks that making FRIENDS OF MINE is the best thing that he's done in his life so far. Adam is 21 years old and you can count on him to always try his best to make good albums. He is "medium-serious" about his music, he says.

His parents are both doctors who raised him well and taught him to be a decent guy. They didn't molest him or beat him or anything. They [his parents] both like his new album. Which is cool because they didn't like his last album so much."

Adam still thinks that there were some good tunes on his last album, but he could play them better now.

"Green shows how he could easily grab the torch from Jonathan Richman to serenade the next generation."
-Associated Press

"'Garfield,' Adam Green's debut album, is a mix of mutated acoustic folk tempered with lyrics that range from remarkable to outrageous."
-Associated Press

"Adam Green is everything Beck was but isn't anymore."
-San Francisco Examiner

"Green's debut solo album, "Garfield," proves the kid's gift is turning the ho-hum into the humorous, without a whole lot of artsy-fartsy filler�"
-San Francisco Examiner

"Green is definitely someone to watch out for".
- Time Out New York

"This record is massive musical genius, coming to a zenith on the track 'Baby's Gonna Die Tonight.'"
-Strength

"Green crafts lo-fi pop goodness"
- In Music We Trust

"Green's solo debut 'Garfield,' is a sparse shakedown of Beck and Shel Silverstein with a little punk thrown in for kicks."
-Daily Reveille


"�His lyrics were simultaneously surrealistic, poetic, romantic and pornographic"
-L.A. Weekly


"With a style that is so simple and words that times will make you fall out of your seat laughing, you can't help but love the guy."
-MusicSurvey.com
