Day 12. A song from your favourite album
After I decided to use a different artist for each question(because otherwise Muse's "Absolution" would be the answer to this question), I knew this was likely to be a Stones album, but I thought it would be "Exile on Main Street." However, when I finally made the decision the other day, it ended up being "Let it Bleed." On a different day, it would have probably been Exile. It also could have easily been the Foo Fighters' "The Colour and the Shape" because that album rocks and I was in a very Dave Grohl sort of mood for a while there, but in the end I went with the Stones.
The Rolling Stones - You Got the Silver Because I'm a sucker for Keith vocals and this is probably my favourites of his. Just, gorgeous.

I am the first to admit Keith can be a little hit-and-miss with vocals somedays but this is a seriously amazing version I just found on YouTube. All wrapped up in his long black coat without his guitar. (And pirate pin!) It looks like the Beacon, but I'm not sure if this the was Shine A Light concert, anyway ... awesome, is what I'm trying to say. ;)

Had a couple of relaxing nights at home before a pretty busy weekend full of birthday drinks, leaving drinks, a Chris Addison (!) comedy show, a British Grand Prix and a World Cup final (Sunday is going to be awesome, so happy we'll be getting a new World Cup winner). Can't wait till work ends tomorrow.
Big Bang Theory rocked tonight
Sheldon. With Mickey mouse ears. Awesome. And I still think Sheldon and Penny's odd friendship is one of the highlights of the show. And Raj. <3
I seem to be in a bit of a Jane Austen mood. I'm reading Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters, recently rewatched the Ang Lee movie of Sense and Sensibility - Emma Thompson is amazing, as is Alan Rickman, though I do think Colonel Brandon is almost a little too awesome as a character - and also caught a bit of of a Northanger Abbey movie that has made me keen to read that.
My visa runs out a year today. :( I've resigned myself to the fact that I'll probably be heading home barring some sort of fortuitous sponsoring situation. With the British economy the way it is, I just don't think it will happen.
Also, Ben and Jerry's 2-for-1 specials are really dangerous. Damn you Sainsburys!
Edit: Knew I forgot something! I've had these two awesome bits of Tony/Steve fanart open on two tabs for days and days.
B&W kissing guh and
Equally gorgeous kiss in colour. I love Tumblr somedays. It brings me so much pretty.
