Depeche Mode - Never Let Me Down Again Performed by Jessica Mazin (The Last Of Us)

I'm taking a ride with my best friend I hope he never lets me down again He knows where he's taking me Taking me where I want to be I'm taking a ride with my best friend We're flying high We're watching the world pass us by Never want to come down Never want to put my feet back down on the ground I'm taking a ride with my best friend I hope he never lets me down again Promises me I'm safe as houses As long as I remember who's wearing the trousers I hope he never lets me down again We're flying high We're watching the world pass us by Never want to come down Never want to put my feet back down on the ground We're flying high We're watching the world pass us by Never want to come down Never want to put my feet back down on the ground

Silent Poets - Asylum For The Feeling

A silent faulty feeling A silent fault A silent faulty feeling A silent fault I sigh and fall to the ceiling I sigh and run to the kneeling Asylums for the feeling Ran out of all the meaning I ran out of It's hard to fall believing It's hard to fall So many men are losing While out there doing the proving It's no surprise, he's dooming Bring your friends, bring it all on Oh, don't suck it up, no We seem to need another We need you all While finding our own cover We cover it all I find my own completeness The darkness and the weakness The light, the fight, the quietness We are here for you We are here for you Don't suffer alone Tell us We are here for you We are here for you Don't suffer alone Tell us

IPod Obsession

I have been consumed with the desire to update my IPod. Now that I've had my new tower for a while and I am no longer sharing Nate's ITunes on his laptop, I can completely customize my IPod with what I want without the clutter of someone else's music.

It's a pleasurable distraction right now. I know I haven't been blogging as much and I need to recap SDCC 2011 before I forget. A lot of things went down between July and now. Maybe I'll talk about it later.

But right now I just want to get lost in the music. Even if it's just for a little bit.

Our favorite decade....the 80s!

Every time VH1 has this damned show even though we've seen it over and over we still watch the whole thing.Nate and I first connected to each other through music. Napster, free Napster, was a haven for us. Until Metallica had a hissy fit and drove everyone off to the nether regions of IRC, the wilderness of FTPs and beyond the far reaches of the internets.

Seeing VH1's special on the 80's is such a flashback for me in particular. I think of 1984 as the year my mind and my ears opened up to the music I was hearing. It was awesome. I don't quite remember the significance of that particular year. It might have been the first time I got or bought a cassette tape.

Some of the choices on that count down I don't really agree with and I think other songs that should have been in there are not. But it had me running to notepad to write out the song for later to download or search at Amoeba, a local used record store Nate and I hit up when we're in the neighborhood.

Nate's recollection of the 80's isn't as clear as mine as he was born in 1982. His perspective on the decade is how heavily sampled the songs are in later music.

As we watch the bands and the songs the question of if we had a chance to see a band live, which one would it be comes up. Nate and I both agree on Queen. Queen with Freddy Mercury. Guilty pleasure would be to see Journey. LOL

I think tonight I'll break out my iPOD and listen to some powwa ballads and remember the 80s.
