*opens parenthesis* i bought zappa's 'we're only in it for the money' today, after getting newer albums like 'sheik yerbouti' and 'one size fits all' (which are excellent)... what can i say, a lot of reviews were praising it as one of the best... and it sounded really deceiving to me. a lot sounds like filler, or annoying (too slow? the voices that seem to just spoil the emotional value some tracks do have?), and the sound quality is really bad (i had some mp3s and they sound way better than the cd! since it's mastered from vinyl edition i guess, concentration moon is slower, etc.)
i may get to like it after some listens, like it did with the mp3s i had, but right now i do not want... because of track four, 'mom & dad'. i stand very sad tracks, but not when they're that realistic, UNFAIR and sarcastic... it almost got me depressed, at least it broke my afternoon.
then to cheer me up, i went to my mp3 library on random - it falled on peter gabriel's 'into your eyes'.
well this track must well be one of the most soothing ones i know, when you're sad!! the live version had been my first 'fav ever' track when i started discovering music, then i got a bit bored of it. now that i listened to it in such conditions, it gets back on my top 10 fav songs - i don't mind if you hate this track or peter gabriel, it just felt like this to me and we all get our own feelings about each thing... *closes parenthesis*
this said, now that i think about it... i never got depressed by listening to NIN or something like that, because it's always too blurry or vague or dreamy or stylised... maybe it's only because it's realistic that it touched me (it is).
but is it that it's music that made me feel it that sad? or its unfairness (i can stand be told about horrible things, but not unfair things - what's paradoxal is that i don't think justice exists so unfair wouldn't exist either...)?
i don't

know.
all i know is that i must live in a dreamy bubble, getting to see everything like in a dream, even horrible things, to stand them, and of course it hurts a lot when it pops... maybe i should quit with this attitude, but i don't want to.
don't we all live in a bubble, even a thin one?

this is one muddled thread.
what are you trying to say..?
are you quoting yourself on Zappa..? was that recent?
I'm confused.

Anus_Presley > hmm... i rather love him! but that record just made me sick...
i'm relistening to it now (maybe i'll skip 'mom & dad', maybe not): most of the time, first impressions aren't the good ones.
