bittersweet distracter

I'm listening to this on repeat. The Twelves + Radiohead = better than sex and warm cookies and other awesome stuff.



Reckoner (The Twelves Remix) - Radiohead

Reckoner
You can't take it with you
Dancing for your pleasure

You are not to blame for
Bittersweet distracter
Dare not speak its name
Dedicated to all human beings

Because we separate like ripples on a blank shore
Because we separate like ripples on a blank shore

Reckoner
Take me with you
Dedicated to all human beings

In the winter sun

I wish I could get these lyrics better sorted out. There are many errors with the version being copy/pasted on lyrics sites. Anyway, I really dig this. Aeroplane does some dope remixes. Oh, and Neon Gold has it as a free promotional download so get it while it's hot.



The Piper's Song (Aeroplane Remix) - Gypsy & The Cat

In the night see a face that's in the dark
Through his eyes I see a light shining gold
And this man, he walks alone singing songs of victory
When he sleeps, there’s a struggle and the light begins to fade

Heaven tells the past all he had was love and fear
He was stronger then; all he had was love and pain
Then one day he found a stroke, evil tears run down his face
Another change good to bad, good to bad

Where to run? Are you there? Are you there?
In the winter sun, he’s dancing in the wind
Where to run? Are you there? Are you there?
In the wilderness, look and you will find him

A mother weeps, a child sleeps their broken heart
A bleeding wine, just passing time, their horror shows
They’re at his grave at valor creek, the place where he began to see
The evil tide that ___s(?) of him of the good that stood within

Heaven tells the past all he had was love and fear
He was stronger then; all he had was love and pain
Then one day he found a stroke, evil tears run down his face
Another change good to bad, good to bad

Where to run? Are you there? Are you there?
In the winter sun, he’s dancing in the wind
Where to run? Are you there? Are you there?
In the wilderness, look and you will find him

Tonight, tonight we'll sing the piper's song
Tonight, tonight we'll sing the piper's song
Tonight, tonight we'll sing the piper's song
Tonight, tonight we'll sing the piper's song
Tonight, tonight we'll sing the piper's song
Tonight, tonight we'll sing the piper's song
Tonight, tonight we'll sing the piper's song

Where to run? Are you there? Are you there?
In the wilderness, look and you will find him
Where to run? Are you there? Are you there?
In the winter sun, he’s dancing in the wind

Where to run? Are you there? Are you there?
In the wilderness, look and you will find him
Where to run? Are you there? Are you there?
In the winter sun, he’s dancing in the wind

Tonight, tonight we'll sing the piper's song
Tonight, tonight we'll sing the piper's song

All I can say is this feeling is the best that I have known

this is definitely a conclusion to my previous post but I'm strangely ok with how everything turned out. mainly, I'm proud of myself. I put all of last year's toxicity behind me and am ready to be happy and healthy in my relationships.
and so begins a new chapter =)

Sleepless City - PUNCHES

We're all alone in this sleepless city
I mean, I was 'til I found you
Things have changed since you've been with me
Cause night by night we make it through (Yeah)

I was lost in this sleepless city
I mean, I was 'til I found you
Y'know things have changed sinve you've been with me
Cause night by night we know what to do

I feel alive before the sunrise
In my sleepless city, in my sleepless city
Maybe tonight we won't say goodbye
In my sleepless city, in my sleepless city
Stay with me, Stay with me
Stay with me, Stay with me

We're all alone in this sleepless city
I mean, I was 'til I found you
Some things have changed since you've been with me
Cause night by night we make it through

I feel alive before the sunrise
In my sleepless city, in my sleepless city
Maybe tonight we won't say goodbye
In my sleepless city, in my sleepless city
Stay with me, Stay with me
Stay with me, Stay with me

I know a change is coming
But I'm not gonna do it alone
And I know these streets are lonely
But they're the streets that I call home
When I came here tonight
I told myself this must be better than sleeping alone
All I can say is this feeling
Is the best that I have known

I feel alive before the sunrise
In my sleepless city, in my sleepless city
Maybe tonight we won't say goodbye
In my sleepless city, in my sleepless city
Stay with me, Stay with me
Stay with me, Stay with me
Stay with me, Stay with me
Stay with me, Stay with me

What is she covering up?
What is she lying about?
Uh-oh she's hesitating
And she's using slow words, I know
But she's moving fast
Why is this happening now?
Why does this happen to me
All the time?

Don't give up on me
And I won't give up on you

Squeeze me 'til I can't breathe
And let's just lie here in oblivion
Cause neither one of us
Can know how long this love will last
So stay up in bed with me
Stay up and play with me
All day and night

Don't give up on me
And I won't give up on you
I cannot wait for the baby
Love me, girl

(Nothing is wrong, what are you scared of?)
(Nothing is wrong, what are you scared of?)
Nothing is wrong, what are you scared of?
(Nothing is wrong, what are you scared of?)
Love me, love me, love me (repeated)
(Nothing is wrong, what are you scared of?)

there's never enough hours in a day

to do both the things I need to do and the things I love. I did manage to break my 14 month darkroom dry spell somewhat although it has yet to feel cathartic. I'm only 4 prints in (only one of which i don't want to completely reprint) so I'm sure relief will come soon. I'm itching to produce everything and be able to visually narrate the past year. It was a fun ride =D





aaand because all memories have music:

(not as good as the yes giantess remix but I couldnt find it on youtube or anything. click here for a free legal download thanks to their record label, neon gold )




(yep i took these)

slipping past, you won't see me



Funny, I was just listening to this and wondering if I'd ever posted it. Turns out I did, exactly a year ago. Amazing how many things in life are cyclical. It's like pieces of me are trapped in an Escher.
see the original post with lyrics here

p.s. I topped 4,000 views the other day thanks to some facebook friend of mine clicking over from Dallas. If you reveal yourself, I'll send you a mix cd!
