Like a machine

they’ll fix you from the start.

Because you don’t give blood,

then take it back again.

This is me and that’s my song

 and I guess you can see we don’t get along.

Hey, I’ve been thinking. Why don’t we get out of here tonight? Get in the car and just start driving. Fuck ‘em if they can’t take a joke. Right?

Strobe lights and blown speakers

fireworks and hurricanes

I’m not here -

this isn’t happening.

The Cranberries - Zombie

God, Dolores O’Riordan’s voice is what dreams are made of.

This is probably my favourite track from Binaural. It was written by Jeff Ament, the bassist, about his childhood growing up in rural Montana. It isn’t a happy song.

Musically, the song is incredibly atmospheric. Heavy and hazy, it almost sounds as though you’re listening through a barrier of sleep, or fog, or drugs. 

It’s the perfect night song, and always changes my mood when I hear it. The distorted guitar work is stunning - for me, that’s what really takes it to the next level. Pearl Jam’s guitarist, Mike McCready, probably explained the sound best when he compared it to “a plane going down”.

Nothing As It Seems by Pearl Jam. 

And all these words elope

it’s nothing like your poem.

Grab hold of her fast, before her feet leave the floor

and she’s out the door.

Love and Rockets - Yin and Yang (The Flowerpot Man)

Diamond days cut and dry
But beauty in the hurricane’s eye
