read between the lines
aural tidbits don't have the time to update now (work tomorrow...agh, even though i really love my current job, i'd study any day, man), so i shall just leave whoever's reading with some aural treats.1) kevin max's holy night album they finally fixed up a better flash player for his album's promo site (one that preloads the songs much faster instead of lagging like previously) and made the very wise decision to upload all the album's songs. my favourite picks would be o holy night, joy to the world and o little town of bethlehem. i don't know why, but the last song especially, it sounds like the background music for a gameboy-based game i must have played before. haha. 2) radiohead's high and dry one of the songs of my younger teenage years, and quite possibly, of the average younger teenager at the time. i'd kind of forgotten about it or not thought of it much, until i started work, when i discovered that my colleague has this song in her computer. after that i kind of played it more often, to varying levels of frequency, depending on my mood. the lyrics are so representative of the confusing years of adolescence and i just can't get enough of the drum beat, which captures one's attention right at the start. the story of how the song came about can be found here (the quotes worth reading are right at the bottom). |
