THE SOUND OF SETTLING...

I'm breaking out the vintage goods here and going all old school tonight. A Great spring song (aka fun to sing along to while driving and bopping to it, song) for you-

DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE- THE SOUND OF SETTLING. "bah, bah, bah, this is the sound of settling.." an oldie but nevertheless a goody.

Spring gives me bloggerhea. I think I'm going to make a spring play list tomorrow. I'm also thinking of joining a kickball league. I think its too late though. Go ahead and call me a dorky hipster, I don't care. Kickball rules. BBK rules too but isn't that common, most people have never heard of it. Its baseball, basketball and kickball all mushed together into one, sounds amazing. Right??!! Well it is.

What else, what else?? I am having a very hard time dealing with a B+ that i got on an assignment that i got back today. Its as if I got an F. I cant believe that I'm even writing this out loud but no shame no gain, right? Wrong. Mooooving along. Lets not talk about it in person. I have become an overachieving beast.

Now that I'm in complaining mode, I might as well vent about one thing that bothers me about music lately. Over the last few years it has become the norm to write and record songs that are like two minutes long. What is that all about. I used to be able to play an album for a while. Most of the time it would run thru a car ride from BK to NJ and then some. Now songs are over before you know it. Makes me feel like we can all write our own albums. I think its a cop out. Remember when songs would be at least 4 minutes long? Songs are becoming jingles while America pops Ritalin for ADHD. BOO. I guess everything is rushed nowadays. I get bored easily too. But--when I'm manning the tunes, you'd better be on the same page because I'm playing GNR NOVEMBER RAIN in its ENTIRETY.
