About Me

I love music and art..that's it!

My Interests

Nice people...

Mic Christopher - I've Got Your Back

Music:

Kate Bush, The Cure, Tool, The Frames, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, A Silver Mt Zion, Pink Floyd, Led Zep, Sigur Ros, Magnolia Electric Co., Jeff Buckley, Joni Mitchell...
...to name a few..but generally, the music's gotta have soul, gotta have passion, gotta have integrity, gotta have HEART, and stay true to it's art form (unlike today's formulaic, predictable regurgitated shit we call pop that numbs the brain and turn you into sheep).

Movies:


I love Hayao Miyazaki's films

Television:

Six Feet Under, Fresh Prince, The Simpsons, Jools Holland

Books:

Paulo Coehlo books, James Redfield's The Celestine Prophecy, Harper Lee's To Kill A Mockingbird, Michael Ondaatje's The English Patient, Louis deBerniere's Captain Corelli's Mandolin. I haven't read much poetry but I have always warmed towards the poetry of Rainer Maria Rilke:


Lament

Everything is far
and long gone by.
I think that the star
glittering above me
has been dead for a million years.
I think there were tears
in the car I heard pass
and something terrible was said.
A clock has stopped striking in the house
across the road...
When did it start?...
I would like to step out of my heart
and go walking beneath the enormous sky.
I would like to pray.
And surely of all the stars that perished
long ago,
one still exists.
I think that I know
which one it is
which one, at the end of its beam in the sky,
stands like a white city...

- Rainer Maria Rilke (from The Selected Poems of Rainer Maria Rilke )
