There are a few things in life that truely get my blood pumping and make it worth getting up each morning. Losing myself in music, getting inked, designing and making my clothes & with that dressing myself each day (Another day, another amazing outfit!!), equestrian and archery - such genteel sports! pop culture, sub culture, horror films from the 30s - 50s, vampires, frankenstein, coffee and cooking, makeup and cosmetics, rodz and kustoms, rubber, pussycats and bunnies, painfully high heels, art from Coop, Mitch O'Connell, Shag, Sailor Jerry & Karl Kaufmann, tiki's, Polynesian design, military history - In fact Im obsessed with history in general particulary European and British history (from Medieval to Victorian), the occult, angels, witchcraft, psychic arts, theosophical studies, traveling, ebay... Oh! and my soul is bubbling more and more every day for Chiropractic and cell biology qantum healing!!.....that's off the top of my head, and will do for now!!
***My newest pair of 6inch heels - heaven for my footsies***
S P Morrissey & Lux Interior, thanks.
It would take way too much time and space to list all the music that sets me off! The bands that do my head in the most are, These Animal Men ♣ Billy Childish & The Buff Medways ♣ Bowie ♣ Tiger Army ♣ Superdrag ♣ The Walkmen ♣ Mad Sin ♣ The Cramps ♣ The Editors ♣ The Bronx ♣ Demented Are Go ♣ S*M*A*S*H ♣ Mad Caddies ♣ Union 13 ♣ The Smiths ♣ Joy Division ♣ Stone Roses ♣ Inspiral Carpets ♣ New Order ♣ Wire ♣ The Buzcocks ♣ The Charlatans ♣ Blur ♣ Ride ♣ Adorable ♣ The Hives ♣ Goldfinger ♣ Idlewild ♣ NOFX ♣ Rancid ♣ Bouncing Souls ♣ Interpol ♣ Maximo Park ♣ Kaiser Chiefs ♣ Dead Kenedy's ♣ Horrorpops ♣ Pennywise ♣ Operation Ivy ♣ Elastica ♣ Franz Ferdinand ♣ Social Distortion ♣ Voodoo Glow Skulls ♣ Oskar. I have had a rather extream obsession with The Smiths & Moz for the last 19 years that will never wane and the few other constants that can still move me after such a long time are the Stone Roses, Ride, New Order and Joy Division. I also love ska (in all forms, from original Trojan to dub to modern skacore punk), 60s garage punk and psychadelic - pretty much anything put out on Pebbles, Nuggets or Boulders.
Idlewild - Words can not even begin to describe my love...
These Animal Men - My speedkings.
The Toy Dolls - They just dont make men like this anymore!
The Secret ♠ What the Bleep Do We Know? ♠ Loose Change ♠ An Inconvenient Truth ♠ Oliver Twist ♠ The Prestige ♠ ANY movie set in the 1800's ♠ Bright Young Things ♠ Riot on Sunset Strip ♠ Gidget ♠ most of Marilyn's and Betty Grable's films ♠ The Cats Meow ♠ A Good Woman ♠ Being Julia ♠ Rollerball ♠ Cry Baby ♠ Hairspray ♠ The Outsiders ♠ American History X ♠ Love and War ♠ Black Hawk Down ♠ Three Kings ♠ Far From Heaven ♠ Mars Attacks ♠ The Party ♠ Gosford Park ♠ The Others ♠ Slow, broody, intelligent horror films - But only 1950s or older, I cant stand gratuitous gore, it is bad for my psyche. Also like Russ Meyers, particularly Faster Pussycat, Kill, Kill Im also very partial to "period" movies, such as Pride & Prejudice ♠ Emma ♠ Room With A View, usually involving lots of good ol' fashioned meddling and romance! :o)
I am OBSESSED with Most Haunted...like, TOTALLY obsessed....
The Soup is damn funny. I love Little Britain and League of Gentlemen. I love The Long Way Round - As well as being a super duper Ewan McGregor perve, its a bloody great doco. I also love a bad trashy reality type program. The more distastful the better!!
I read constantly and usually have around three books on the go at once...of course I love the "The Green Books". Also, I would have to say my absolute fave genre would be historical fiction - or to be precise - fictional novels about prostitues, gangsters, criminals and the general low life of victorian London or New York. Very specific, and im constantly on the hunt for new books fitting that description....I am also a tad obsessed with 19th Cent English literature and at the moment am satisfying a huge craving for poetry and romance - Byron and Tennyson bring particular joy to my evenings! :o)
