Entertainment Weekly has a feature that recommends new songs or albums based on songs you already like. It's the "Love This? Try This!" column. I noticed that Of Monsters and Men song, "Little Talks", was featured. (yes, I found them thru this EW column a few weeks ago). Anyway, a new catchy song is now stuck in my head: "Thunder Clatter" by Wild Cub. Sure the video is dumb, but I love to see artists loving what the do and adding cowbell and tambourines randomly in their music just to get chicks. I mean, that's what's going on here, isn't it? Regardless, check out the track. I think it's super fun and am going to listen again:
Sei wie der Fluss, der eisern ins Meer fließt Der sich nicht abbringen lässt, egal wie schwer es ist Selbst den größten Stein fürchtet er nicht Auch wenn es Jahre dauert, bis er ihn bricht
Und wenn dein Wille schläft, dann weck ihn wieder Denn in jedem von uns steckt dieser Krieger Dessen Mut ist wie ein Schwert Doch die größte Waffe ist sein Herz Lasst uns aufstehen Macht euch auf den Weg An alle Krieger des Lichts An alle Krieger des Lichts Wo seid ihr Ihr seid gebraucht hier Macht euch auf den Weg An alle Krieger des Lichts An alle Krieger des Lichts Das hier geht an alle Krieger des Lichts
Be the river which resolutely flows to the sea Which won't be warpe from it, no matter how hard it is It does not even fear the biggest stone Even if it takes years, until it breaks the stone And if your will sleeps wake it again Because inside of everyone of us is a warrior Whose courage is like a sword But the biggest weapon is his heart Lets get up Get out of the way To all the warriors of light To all the warriors of light Where are you You're wanted here Get out of the way To all the warriors of light To all the warriors of light This goes to all the warriors of light
It's not your face or the color of your hair Or the sound of your voice my dear that's got me dragged in here It's the ice in the seam, the scheme of you
You're supposed to have the answer You're supposed to have living proof Yes, I was jealous because you are sworn How could you come undone to a word so strong My beating heart the anchor to a ship so warm You're supposed to have the answer You're supposed to have living proof Well, I am your answer, I am living
As long as I'm living I'll be waiting As long as I'm breathing I'll be there Whenever you call me I'll be waiting Whenever you need me I'll be there I've seen you cry Into the night I feel your pain Can I make it right I realize there's no end in sight Yet still I wait For you to see the light I'm the one who really loves you baby I can't take it anymore
Don't tell me you're a stepping stone 'Cus I'll step all over you, and won't mean it Don't tell me I'm not capable 'Cus I'll prove that I am if it kills me Don't try to hold me in your hand 'Cus living things move, and I surely will You've got your friends and I've got mine And wouldn't you know, they were right I won't tell you that your beautiful 'Cus you'll think I want sex, and don't mean it I won't tell you that I want to spend the rest of my life with you.... again
I've recently gone back to Facebook. For the most part, I enjoy it. But I'm finding I have to be on my best behavior. Well, not "best", but I find myself editing or censoring myself. Wouldn't want to offend some old ninny or religious freak. Yeah, I have old friends like that - acquaintances now. I prefer the "I don't give a rat's ass feeling" I used to get when I would post whatever comes to mind - good, bad, or indifferent - which is what I was able to do here. But then again, I have little traffic here; not many people read or look at this stuff. It's like a wasteland for my brain (or mindcake, if you will), a dumping ground. I think sometimes, "if I write something and no one reads it, did I write it at all?" Regardless, I'm going to try to find a good balance of both. If I get too explicit here? Well, so be it. Hairy chests and dicks be damned! I don't care. It's a fine thing feeling anonymous some times... well, in my own mind...
