So tomorrow at 1:20 PM, I'm flying out of Omaha, landing in Chicago and Montreal and then making the great 6 hr 40 minute jump over the ocean to LONDON TOWN. ENGLAND. YEAH, THAT ONE ( Read more... )

Sooo, LJ, I keep saying I'll update you and then I change my icons or look at communities and give up. My entries are always so goddamn long and boring--they're at least as tedious to write as they are to read. It's hard to work up the energy to care ( Read more... )

I just took advantage of an empty house by popping in my Lost In TV DVD (Suede's video collection, for the uninitiated) and shrieking, singing, shaking, jumping, jiving, jamming, and clapping my hands sore for an hour and a half. I think catching Blur's "Song 2" on Fuse started it. I needed a Britpop infusion ( Read more... )

I can't tell you how many times I have flailed and sung and thrashed and jammed to this song at top volume in the past month. I am in love with it. Written and sung by the man in the icon, for those of you not up on my obsessions. Why do I sound so calm? I LOVE THIS SONG AND I LOVE BRETT ANDERSON <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 I'M WITH YOU COS THERE'S NO CHOICE ( Read more... )

he gets lovely the more he's ill -
don't OD on him now
dressed as a woman with horrible hair
and singing to the birds in town
he goes walking through traffic out there
don't OD on her now...

oh, is it true what they say about you?God, I love Suede. Brett wrote the craziest shit when the band was young ( Read more... )

Frrmm. I've meant to update for an hour or two, but first I had to run out and look at a pheasant that was inexplicably in our backyard:

I have meant to do this since... January, I think. cheshcan and silvertiger did theirs ages ago.

This list isn't quite perfect; I mean, I really, really want to put Suede's first THREE albums on it, but only one is here, out of convenience. And I can't put everything Bernard Butler's ever done on here without looking fucking nuts. He's AMAZING, but his albums aren ( Read more... )

Tuesday night, Veer, Chesh, Smeg and your host all piled into my dad's minivan which I still haven't vacuumed (it's covered in fir tree ... things. Needles? We got some more trees for the backyard) and went to fetch Dessy and then went to the airport, where we wandered around and finally stopped at the A gates opening where we met SARAH (asscollection). She ( Read more... )

I dreamed about Brett/Suede again - it was weird, though. I was part of Suede, but I'm not sure how I fit in - girl back-up singer or something. And we were performing in k0hlb0rg and Brett was really giggly and flirty, and he sort of sauntered away to let Richard and Alex finish the song and then came back and everyone who'd watched the concert ( Read more... )
