My favorite part of the Lion King is when Mufasa tells Simba “Join me, and I will complete your training. With our combined strength, we can end this destructive conflict and bring order to the galaxy.”
Instead of checking out new releases, now that I am done with daily listening projects, I am listening to The Byrds and CSN & sometimes Y the rest of the morning. He may have been a curmudgeonly bastard, but then, so am I.
"It's ten to ten, time is running out
Lock up all your memories, get outta here, you know that we can run
Today can last another million years
Today could be the end of me
It's 11:59, and I want to stay alive"
Dusty in Memphis to Metallica's Black Album to Billy Joel's The Stranger is how my musical night started. It's gonna be a strange night. (Ryuichi Sakamoto's new album is next, so it's just gonna stay weird.)
After further discussion:
"Oh, why do they leave?
On the day that you needed them the most
Simple cards and things
Rose-colored sunsets
No flowers for me"
"I come alive in a neon light
That's when I make my moves right
Livin' after midnight
Rockin' to the dawn
Lovin' till the morning
Then I'm gone, I'm gone"
well 1001 album generator is gonna get me to finally listen to some PJ Harvey. Expect some sort of take in a bit (doing some Beck celebration first RIP and then a relisten to London Calling, yesterday's record.)
