She wakes up with the worst headache. Looks around. The house is a mess; every couch is filled with guys and girls; she herself slept awkwardly in a scruffy olivelike armchair. She lifts herself up, ready to stand from her bed, trips over something on the floor. It’s Bob, the world’s worst drunk. Not the … Continue reading With Your Friends You’ll Never Be Alone

To That Special Someone (You Know Who You Are): Dropkick Murphys – Rose Tattoo
I’d wake up every morning and before I’d start each day, I’d take a drag from last night’s cigarette that’s smoldered in its tray, down a little something and then be on my way. This song’s all about loving that certain special someone throughout life. Life is painful, and rough, no matter who you … Continue reading To That Special Someone (You Know Who You Are): Dropkick Murphys – Rose Tattoo

They probably thought that a parabellish didactic little story would be more in place here. Yes. Animals.

Moderat – Bad Kingdom
Comic books. Truth novels. Tunnel vision.You gotta have those. My monochromatic friends. Creepy little bastards creeping in on you. Party-hardy business men. All the money in the world, but not a single touch of so-called "time". All the dreams, but not a single hint of cold-heated bravery. This is not what you wanted. Ah?

Linkin Park – Faint
I really like this vid. You know why? The total absence of smartphones. Look at that crowd. Look at it. Not a single person in there who’s standing perfectly still so that he can record a famous guy. I am: a little bit of loneliness, a little bit of disregard. Said the smartphone-guy at … Continue reading Linkin Park – Faint
