So i've revisited S.C.I.E.N.C.E., even wrote a review of it on amazon.com, just cuz i was inspired because it's such a good memory of mine and i needed to speak out against this "incubus" that's going on today.. i've got a new theory: they got crappy because brandon cut his hair. it's a Samson thing. seriously, look at the evidence. dreads = great music. and then came short hair.. and that was the beginning of the end. i think there may be a correlation here between crappy music and sex appeal, as well.. brandon essentially got sexier and all this new sexual attention may have helped to severely disable his music-writing abilities.. i'm serious about this.

oh my god radiohead is coming to west palm on october 4th and i'm murdering people to get there.. me and axel, baby. right there. it's going to be fucking crazy. a life's dream is finally coming true. look for me on october 5th and you'll find me a changed girl. i didn't think i'd react so dramatically to the news, but i did, i slapped the table and said "oh my god" several times without trying to act surprised and overwhelmed... i actually was surprised and overwhelmed.. i am incredibly excited about this. the number of people that are going to be there will be absurd, you just wait.

music is big in my life right now.. because money is incredibly low so i haven't been able to see many movies lately (though i saw Finding Nemo on father's day and it was great) - so i've been obsessed with the rolling stones for a couple of weeks now, particularly lately this wonderful song "let's spend the night together" and the fantastic "she's a rainbow". lovin every minute of it. but now i'm drifting from them just a little.. into... bush. haha. razorblade suitcase got a little spin yesterday - that stuff is very good, that's a good album, and i'm thinking the first half is just "fun" and "good memories" but the last half are actually "good songs" - it's interesting stuff. this all came about because i'm on a "downloading music videos" rampage and i had to brainstorm what the greatest music videos i've ever seen were, and i remembered "greedy fly", so i downloaded that and that's great - and then gavin was on craig kilbourn! yes, and he sang with the blue man group and did five questions and boy is he the most awkward guy ever - he talks fine, he sits fine, but when he's standing or moving around he is the most awkward looking fella, it's embarrassing. like the way dawson walks. ; ) a bunch of weirdos. so yes, he's sexy until he has to carry himself in some way.

so i've downloaded enumerable videos, and they're still coming, but here's what i've got so far, let me know if there's more i should add:
beastie boys - sabotage
bjork - all is full of love (GREAT video), cocoon, hunter
bush - greedy fly
busta rhymes - dangerous
coldplay - the scientist, live trouble
daft punk - around the world
david bowie/queen - under pressure
foo fighters - everlong, my hero
janet jackson - anytime anyplace
madonna - human nature, express yourself
michael jackson/janet - scream
NIN - perfect drug
R.E.M. - everybody hurts
sigur ros - track 7 off first album, which is best song, and one of greatest vids of all time
U2 - where the streets have no name

i know, it's a lot. and there's more coming - more madonna/U2/foo/janet/bjork (all of bjork's videos are, in one way or another, the greatest of all time, it's uncanny), plus some portishead (i've downloaded two of their albums, very nice trip hop stuff), aphex twin, the cars (you might think), and then maybe my favorite video that needs redownloading, U.N.K.L.E.'s Rabbit in your Headlights. yessir. video crazy.

jesus christ i could see radiohead this year...

and then i took a trip down memory lane again with the dave matthews band earlier today - that cd with "don't drink the water" on it, the only one i have. "crush" isn't quite so sexy today. and i'm eyeing the cure, because i realized how much i love "just like heaven". so there you have it.

lots of crazy things are happening in melody's life right now, but it'll just bring you down. i'm really looking forward to the italians' coming home party, i need to see all of those people again. also: i kind of like my weener dog now.
