March of the Typewriter! Topic: Beautiful Minutia
It's the March of the Typewriter project! Yes, I'm fucking taking forever and this might go into April. MARCH into April, as it were. Heh. Oh, keep quiet.

Get it? LITTLE THINGS?! From here.
TOPIC: Beautiful Minutia
This topic comes from the funk queen of the universe warriorpoet:
"Gush about a little piece of something you love. Like one shot in a film, or one chord change in a song. Love and appreciation of a meaningful thing on a microscopic level."
I FUCKING LOVE THIS QUESTION. So, so, SO many ways this could go! I love all so many little things in big things that I love.
Edith Massey's lines in my favorite film of all time Polyester, but especially the "au currant!" line! The way Vivien Leigh says "DuBois" when she gives her name to Karl Malden in A Streetcar Named Desire! But no, I'm limiting myself to just one thing. Just one, Benjamin.
While anyone who knows me knows it's not my FAVORITE Tori album, it is ONE of my favorite Tori albums: Under the Pink.
It has plenty of songs that mean a shitload to me (it is a Tori album) but I'm talking about one particular song and the orgasm (eargasm?) it has in it (thus our theme of a tiny thing!).
While you do kinda have to listen to whole song to really appreciate the build-up and release, it takes place around 3:47 and I. Lose. My fucking shit. Every. Fucking. Time. Unf.
And I've been listening to this for almost twelve years now.
Enjoy. And try not to leave a puddle in your chair.
