new version that i uncovered of The Smiths' There's a Light That Never Goes Out, by Neil Finn. sounds more like the original than the Lucksmiths'. what morbid romanticism. i cant agree more.
and i was just wondering about Camera Obscura's Let's Get Out Of the Country. there's one part about it that sounds vaguely like Billy Jo's We Didnt Start The Fire. yes, that song about the "fire" in history. (At the beginning of the last decade of this century, the so-called Generation X had been dealing with the consequences of situations not of their own creation. These 25 to 40 year olds had been receiving fire from both their children and the baby boomers for their supposed initiation of the problems that began as mere headlines in the news but had now become serious social issues. As a prominent member of this antagonized generation singer and songwriter, Billy Joel, expressed his disgust at these unfair accusations in the song "We Didn't Start the Fire." Through the timeline of events laid out in the lyrics, Billy Joel reminds his generation that the burden of societies' ills are not solely on theirshoulders. As he precedes through the song, he points out key social issues that made an impacted not only his life, but all of American society beginning with events in early 1949 and leading up to the end of the 1980s.)
interesting yea?
and oh boy. i butchered myself by choosing a question for GP that i only have one point for. and now, i'm supposed to be studying for Econs. but i really dont feel like doing so.
this picture was taken sneakily behind my back. haa. but it's my favourite picture. cause u cant see my face and the sky was beautiful that day.
