Band of Horses - Slow Cruel Hands of Time

Artist: Band of Horses

Song: Slow Cruel Hands of Time

Album: Mirage Rock

Year: 2012

"The slow climb, the hard the fall, sometimes I don't want it at all, I've done this so long, its something I oughta know, so long..."

"...The towns reveal the law, visible wind through the fog, the slow cruel hands of time, turning you back into a child..."

*A COMMENT: This week has been a weird one and it's only Tuesday. On Monday I had this dream, I was back in Elementary School, in my classroom playing ball with some guys, it was nice, but at the same time weird as fuck because it brought so many memories and I woke up with these feelings of melancholy and nostalgia that stayed with me all day long.

And today, I don't know why, but again, all day long I felt like the least talented and useless bastard around, thinking and wondering a lot of crap about my life. Not that cool, I may say. 

I hope tomorrow's better.

BTW, I really dig the guitar bit intro/outro of this song.

Fanfarlo - I'm a Pilot

Artist: Fanfarlo 

Song: I'm a Pilot

Album: Reservoir

Year: 2009

"If I stay in this room, they'll remember me for my youth, if I stay in this room, they'll remember me for my youth... If I give it all up, if I give it all up, if I give it all up, but kid I'm a pilot, it's all I believe in, it's all I believe in, it's all I believe in... You can ride on my back..."

*A QUICK ONE: Almost a year has passed since 'CHUCK' ended, and it has been awhile since I posted a song heard there. You know, the source ceased to exist and the song flow stopped, but there are plenty of songs left, perhaps re-watching it could help a bit...

Temple Scene - Breathing

Artist: Temple Scene
Song: Breathing
Album: Another Town EP
Year: 2008

"See the girl with the bloodshot eyes with nothing left to hide, she'll catch your eye. just don't let her see you smile, a free spirit and she's out of control, a free-fall junkie pulling out of a role, I'm out of place and I just don't feel right..."

"All these lights that shine at me, one drink and the rest comes free and I cannot breathe... The crowded room ringing in my ears, how did I even end up here? I cannot breathe..."

*A REAFFIRMATION: Well, before the actual comment, I was so sure that I had posted this already because of its awesomeness, it seems it was skipped. Now to the actual comment: This seems to be, or at least what I make of it, about a place you don't want to be, or hate, specifically nightclubs. 

I have expressed before my ill will for those kind of places, just because I feel out of place., not my kind of place. If I go there I really have to drink until I'm comfortable enough to "interact", otherwise I can't stand it and I feel shitty, so I rather not go.

Django Django - Hail Bop

Artist: Django Django
Song: Hail Bop
Album: Django Django
Year: 2012

"Always look at the white sky and you lose your head in the clouds, wanna step onto them and float onto their ground..."

"Spins the phrases together 'til something starts to make sense, talk of the future ignoring the present tense..."

*A FACT?: I don't quite know what the hell to write, so I'm going to leave something for you to read:

"There seems to be no logical answer behind this as women are the ones who nurture their babies with the milk from their breasts. Then, why do men have nipples on their bodies.

Study about this has shown that initially all embryos have a female template and therefore the nipples is one of the things that are developed in the embryo before the X or Y chromosome is decided. This is the main reason why men as well as women have nipples on their bodies." [SOURCE]

There you go, fellows!

Jamiroquai - Virtual Insanity

Artist: Jamiroquai
Song: Virtual Insanity
Album: Travelling Without Moving
Year: 1996

"And nothing's going to change the way we live cos' we can always take but never give and now that things are changing for the worse, see, its a crazy world we're living in and I just can't see that half of us immersed in sin, is all we have to give these... Futures made of virtual insanity now..."

*A COMMENT: Yesterday, I ended up becoming the one in charge of animating a party, and by animating I mean, choosing songs, pressing play and crazy dancing (I was drunk) behind a damn laptop. The thing is I created an awesome improvised 90's playlist and this song was a high point of the night. It felt really good. Not so much the hangover.

Sufjan Stevens - Justice Delivers

 
Artist: Sufjan Stevens
Song: Justice Delivers
Album: Silver & Gold
Year: 2012

"Silver and gold, silver and gold, everyone wishes for it, how do you measure its worth? Just by the pleasure it gives here on Earth..."

"Oh, I'm getting old, oh, I'm getting old, everyone wishes for youth, how have I wasted my life? Trusting the pleasure it gives here on Earth..."

*TWO THINGS: First of all, damn it Google, now I can't search images by an 'exact size', or I haven't found how, it is really annoying. Secondly, I find this song so soothing, yet a bit mortifying at the same time, as it touches mundanity and triviality. But I've chosen to stay with the soothing part.

Tame Impala - Solitude is Bliss

Artist: Tame Impala
Song: Solitude is Bliss
Album: Innerspeaker

Year: 2010 

"Cracks in the pavement underneath my shoe, I care less and less about and less about you, no one else around to look at me so I can look at my shadow as much as I please, all the kicks that I can't compare to making friends like you're all supposed to..."

"Company's okay, solitude is bliss, there's a party in my head and no one is invited..."

*A COMMENT: That's the thing, most people don't know how to be alone, can't cope with it, can't stand it. That's sad and they should feel sad... For them it is preferable building fake bonds than being on their own, basically they can't find themselves. 

I consider myself lucky because from a young age I learned how to deal with being alone, how to enjoy my own company, enjoy that constant 'me-time' and not going nuts about it... Sure it overwhelms me every now and then but it is something I've mastered now. 

Not that I want to be alone forever, but I can cope...
