Some graffiti from my walk in this morning. I especially like that a Banksy-esque graffiti artist put someone looking out of a window on a boarded up window.
Those are my shoes / Give them back you are a dog / They don't even fit
Banksy?
When I grow up
Somehow, I’ve made it this far having never really paid attention to Fever Ray. Luckily, Coilhouse has shown me the error of my ways!
I’ve only heard a few songs, but am downloading the album from Amazon as I type this. My favorite song so far is ‘When I grow up’ – I’ve listened / watched the video several times already. I can’t get enough.
When I grow up
I want to be a forester
run through the moss on high heels
thats what I’ll do
throwing out a boomerang
waiting for it to come back to meWhen I grow up
I want to live near the sea
crab claws and butter so raw
that’s what I’ll have
staring at the seashell
waiting for it to embrace meI put my soul in what I do
last night I drew a funny man
with dark eyes and a air guitar
it goes way back
I never liked that sad look
from someone who wants to be loved by youYou’ve got cucumbers on your eyes
too much time spent on nothing
waiting for a moment to arise
you’re facing the ceiling
then asked to look and waiting for him to catch me

A couple of notes …
…to email subscribers who don’t like that I’ve switched my twitter posts from weekly to daily digests:
- You can specifically unsubscribe from the Twitter category by clicking the “change your settings or unsubscribe” link in the email. Uncheck ‘All’ then uncheck ‘Twitter’.
- RSS is better
That is all for now.
P.S. Sorry about emailing a bunch of old posts last week. I categorized a lot of posts to a new Videos category. My tag cloud was gettin’ kind of useless before. It’s much better now.
