The Fog.

We feel nothing so jump into the fog.

Blood by The Middle East

Long overdue video of Blood by The Middle East at the Factory Theatre.

I suppose you can hear my hushing and 'oh my gosh'-ing in the vid.

The reason for this was that it was hard to keep quiet and sane whilst they were playing such an amazing song.

And at once I knew, I was not magnificent.

My exams are over.

I went to see The Middle East at the Factory Theatre. Shit venue but amazing music. More on that later. But for the time being I am incredibly obsessed with such bands:

• Bon Iver
• The National
• Wu Lyf

the good old days, the honest man.

a subtle kiss that noone sees
a broken wrist and a big trapeze
oh well, i don't mind if you don't mind
cause i don't shine if you don't shine
before you go, can you read my mind?

its funny how you just break down, waiting on some sign
i'll pull up to the front of your driveway, with magic soaking my spine
can you read my mind?

Her name is Jona, Jona Vark

Gypsy and the Cat video's from their show at the Metro last night are starting to show up online. I can't help but feel quite if not incredibly jealous of those who were lucky enough to have gone. I had bought tickets intending to go despite my age however, upon reconsidering, I was nervous and scared and ultimately, had to give them up to some other lucky person. Yet funnily enough, I have instead made friends with the girl I sold the tickets to!

Ugh, I really wish I had been able to attend the concert cause it looked amazing. Though hopefully, they'll tour again very soon so that I'd be able to go to their concert...And when they do next time, I'll be way over the age limit. Goodness, sometimes I do hate my birthday. Anyway, I wonder if the friend I told to go actually did or not. I hope he did as it seemed as though it was an amazing show and him being a fan of them...well, I sure hope he didn't miss out. Perhaps he did not either. Meh, I wouldn't have any clue.

I wouldn't want to have it any other way.

Tonight I am feeling the blues. Things are playing up and I don't know what to do. Perhaps the best way to sum up what I'm feeling is - losing touch. I'm losing touch with life, with friendships, with the people I care about the most and most of all, myself. I don't know who I am or what I want. And here's a song that I love - Black Eyed Peas' Just Can't Get Enough. I suppose what made me fall head over heels for this tune is the music video. The paradox of Tokyo, chaos and utter isolation simultaneously is captured perfectly here. Sometimes life feels like that. You're looking from the outside where there is people everywhere yet really, you feel like you're the only person in the world...

Things don't make any sense do they?

Ceremony

Possibly one of the best covers of New Order/Joy Division.
- Amazing guitars. Darn, I love post punk
Long live the legacy.

I am Julian Assange.

The US has YOU in control.

and my lips, they don't kiss, they don't kiss the way they used to.

I have The Killers' live DVD but I couldn't help but youtubing it and just pasting it everywhere I go because this rendition of 'For Reasons Unknown' is possibly my favourite. Ah, The Killers are amazing.

hold you in my arms, i just wanted to hold you in my arms.

These are just a few of my vids that I took on the night. Oh my goodness...so in love. ♥

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out

This video captures my world; lights + lights everywhere.

Florence and The Machine's Cosmic Love.

Sorrow found me when I was young, sorrow waited, sorrow won.

Don't leave my hyper heart alone on the water
Cover me in rag and bone sympathy
'cause I don't wanna get over you
I don't wanna get over you

i need the darkness someone please cut the lights

this song reminds me so much of blondie's heart of glass and i love it.


bliss. i am so jealous of everyone in that audience.

note to self: must go to arcade fire gig the next time they come round to sydney.

empty hallways

Everything You Wanted by Kele is being released as a single!
Rejoice? Heck yeah. :D

The Rain

"THESE ARE THE GOOD TIMES IN YOUR LIFE
SO PUT ON A SMILE IT WILL BE ALRIGHT."

Some wise wisdom from Calvin Harris. Put on a smile, it will be alright.

take me out, tonight.

All I want to listen to is this song:
(if you've been following my twitter..you'll prob know what song it is)
and yet again, my blog is becoming a video embedding blog. oh well.



'to die by your side is such a heavenly way to die'

Australian Music: The Jezabels

The Jezabels are very close to being my favourite Australian band of the year.
I've not been so entranced with a particular band since last year, when I discovered the musical talent of Passion Pit.
I'm positive that this band will be going somewhere...it's only a matter of time when people start noticing their genius.
Edit: I hate all these Bloc Party disbanding rumours...it makes me so incredibly sad. Hope they don't disband...cause 3 Bloc Party albums and a handful of b-sides is NOT ENOUGH for a fan like me =\

for everything you thought you had has gone from worse to bad

My Kind of Scene by Powderfinger
Honestly speaking, although I am a Powderfinger fan, I am not a really big one. If they were not splitting up, I don't think I'd be seeing them at the Acer Arena later in the year. However, upon hearing that they are disbanding after this tour, I knew I had to go- regardless of the fact that I only know a bit of their music. I downloaded their latest offering, 'Golden Rule' and it came with a live album, containing some of their greatest hits. I stumbled upon the song, 'My Kind of Scene' through shuffle...and this song is truly one of their greatest songs...In my opinion, it stands up there with My Happiness and These Days. Here, listen:

I'm incredibly excited to see them in concert now.

In My Place

This song makes me want to cry. Because its just so beautiful.

Sinking Friendships

I am more gutted of not being able to go to Jonsi than The Strokes. :(

School has been tiring and I'm starting to feel the consequences of lacking sleep. It sucks...my eyes are incredibly droopy right now and my bed/pillow seem to be luring me. Ahhh! Gotta do maths first though, eh.
