I'm john and steve: "fuh fuh fuh I love Harry Potter fuh fuh fuh"
In Memory of Petey [Dave] Time:8:50 PM
Well, where to begin.
I've totally been digging on a lot of stuff lately - and not ashamed of any of it. I'm now a huge Harry Potter fan. If people around the world can love the Hobbit - in all of it's juvinille goodness - then (by God!) I can love Harry Potter. The books are pure genius. To be honest, I'm not that crazy about the three main characters (though ron rocks), it's just the stories and atmosphere and vivid imagination. It's like raw imagination, poured onto pages and locked by some spell - only to burst out upon the reader everytime the books are opened. I've been listening to a lot of Creedence Clearwater Revival, and Beck, and ehm..what else..a little bit of Thee Michelle Gun Elephant. Also, per mentioned on my personal blog (check it out, punks), I've been watching classic Japanese films and getting into other classic artistic fields. Shichinin no samurai is still my favourite classic movie of all time ever. I highly suggest it to all. It's so beautiful and well-made. not to mention really fucking long..

Jet (the band) rocks so hard. I got their CD yesterday, Get Born, and I absolutely love it. As John pointed out, even the slow songs are indescribably scrumtrilescent. And what's more, they're all aussies. When I stop and think about it, there aren't actually very many American bands that I listen to. Our Lady Peace is Canadian, as is Bare Naked Ladies and Danko Jones. Travis is Scottish, U2 Irish. Ben lee is also aussie. Then there's the Brits, Coldplay and Keane and of course the Beatles. YES THE BEATLES. OH YES.
Of course there's always Weezer and Marcy going for America. You gotta love America. In Memory of Petey [Dave] Time:8:41 PM |
