...............but i'm scared shitless the people i l♥ve will die.....Johanna on music… ♥Where do I start¿
Firstly I'd like to express my absolute hate to those haters out there... how ironic¿ Good music is GOOD man, fair enough it may not be all your style, but hating someone because they like shit music?
♥Fuck You♥
It’ not about that. Are you even qualified to say it’s shit? When you know nothing about that style? Fuck you.
We all know those people who are into a style of music or in that “scene”, because they're at that time in their life......... etc… etc… and we all know that they're going to be into RnB club music, (or whatever) in a few years time, but those people who stick to their music and love their music because they have a passion for it, then what's there to make fun of? Because they're true? ♥
I'm not gonna turn my back on the music I used to listen to when I was 12 or even 5!
Yes, I listened to Soul, Funk and Jazz when I grew up, the only things I was into a that age is climbing and exploring all the terrain and buildings that surrounded me and my home, and the only time I would stay home in the summer is to watch Thundercats and He-man…other nostalgic 80’s cartoons
So the only music that reached my sort attention span listening was my mothers music and I love it, to this day it reminds me of the time in my life and it's a part of me.
And YES I listened to Spice Girls when I was 12, and I started listening to Backstreet Boys and O-Town and NSync. Yes. All that bubble gum pop. And What? I was too busy being young and being a girl, friends, school, bloody puberty! to give a shit what music was cool. So I listened to the only music that reached my ears through popular culture = Pop. And what? I'm not gonna deny it and I'm not gonna turn my back on it. Fact is. I liked that music for a reason, because it was happy, la la la, singalong, pretty shit. And I love it.
♥But the music that I love beyond cool and what tribe it associates me with or who is involved in the scene…♥ it’s Punk.
♥Why?♥
♥It all started one day when I first met Benji Madden. (Clicky here!)
Yup, I met Good Charlotte at the airport one day, while I was stalking my favourite band at the time O-Town. &hearts I didn't even know who they were and when I saw them all I thought they were in some Slipknot death metal, grungy band. But my friends seemed to know who they were, so with my uninformed balls of STEEL, I went up to these guys with a bit of arrogance, (because I didn't know who they were)…
And you know what? ♥
Benji and Joel were one of the sweetest guys I've ever met, which was quite refreshing at the time, (just had my heart broken♥). I was into fashion at that time and I remember Joel saying I dressed dope, but I think what started the journey was the flyer that Benji gave me. It was a The Used flyer from a gig they went to. I took it and yes, I downloaded a few of their songs, and now they're one of my favourite bands. They even gave us tickets to go to a gig, and I went and were surprised at how true the saying looks can be deceiving was!
Although my best friend Stacy got a bit obsessed with them at the start, and I wasn't even interested. I eventually caved in and found out more about them and they're influences and without them I would never have found legendary bands like Rancid or Green Day or AFI etc. etc. And I would never of had the greatest 2 years of my life the reason I don't need Uni-life. ♥ check my slide out… that’s what it was all about…
Note: I was very moral at the young age of 16 and didn't do any drugs, sex or alcohol at that age due to that time of my life when I could so be easily lead when I saw my school friends turn into the school tart or whore. I was a vegetarian, tree hugging, skin head ♥ No Lie
I put up these restrictions…
♥Now finding punk at 17, I wanted to discover and thought it was about time I had some good experience at being young and free!
♥ And with my amazing skills of detection and luck, (and some illegal money laundering), I managed to get to go to a load of tv appearances and music video shootings etc... and even managed to get enough money to pay for Stacy to come with me to Glasgow. RANCID CLICK HERE♥
I've ran away from home before, (totally another story), but I NEVER slept on the street!
Until I would be insane enough to go anywhere in the UK just to see my favourite bands play live. ..
I must have tasted alcohol before I was 17, (perhaps just a sip of my Fathers wine), but the first time I got Mest CLICK HERE And so, the two main loves of my life Fashion/Art and Music come into place. I found out things about punk that I've always lived by and respected.
♥A few things I found out about punk on my journey♥
♥PUNK is about doing what the fuck you want and not giving a shit about what anyone thinks. (If you knew me in High School, you'd know how this applies to me ).
♥Let's put it this way, I don't take to rules to kindly and I hate people telling me what to do, and although I'm a bit of a ♥Daddy's girl,♥ (true at heart♥) I hate authority in all forms, especially the abuses of power. When I found out that teachers used their status as a teacher to control me as a being, to put me back in line and to make me look like everyone else, when they use their power as an authority figure, to fill their ego that's when I lost respect for adults and all, (ok most) people with authority.
♥When you trace punk to it's roots, it's hard to miss Sex Pistols and Vivienne Westwood, (who has always been one of my favourite designers). Before I found punk, I wanted to be as individual and unique as I could possible be, so I dressed like a freak. I shaved my hair off at 13 (Yes!) Why? So I wouldn't be a mindless, clone drone of everyone else and finding out that's how punk started off, with the Sex Pistols, a whole fuck you scene of bondage tartan and safety pins and Mohawks. Yes they look like they're from hell, but at least they look different to you!
♥ And what about The Ramones? Kings (and Queens) of drainpipe jeans! No, but they started off being lower class as they were, (like most punk bands at the time), wanting to play music, but not having the education. Not really know how to play, but just knowing they wanted to. They're first couple albums, they probably knew a few chords at best, but they made a fucking hell of an album with em! And that's my dream too, ok so I don't know anything about making music, but I can sing like a mother-fucker and boy you better know I got soul.
♥Now you tell me why you love your music.....
Johanna's modelling...
……….♥My (ex)boyfriend and ♥love of my life&hearts took a job in Australia back in February, which I thought at the time would have lasted 5 long years……………..
……..♥I missed him so much, and after a few chats on msn I eventually did a couple of "naughty" pictures of myself to him.♥
Surprisingly I thought I looked quite good in them. I coincidentally, (or was it?) met a photographer after these pictures. ♥Lee Cropper♥ was the first to photograph me and since then...
♥ well take a look for yourself....... ♥
