Classy Dames: Tyra Collette

The day I bought an engagement ring for Tyra Collette:



This is just so Tyra it's perfect. I'll miss you, young lady. Love you forever!

Classy Dames: Kate Winslet

Somebody get this girl an Oscar! Though I guess what she does isn't technically acting...it's WINSLETING!



She had me at "Gather..."

P.S. I can do her entire speech.

No One Does It Like You, NYC

Buy, borrow, or steal In Ear Park by Department of Eagles. Now. It’s the sexier, more romantic side to Grizzly Bear. If Grizzly is Prospect Park, then Eagles is a little more Union Square. Eagles are blessed with the pitch-perfect, languorous strum that Grizzly is so awesome at, but with a little more of the experimental, divergent oomph of Iron & Wine circa Woman King.

Best tracks, in order of sexiness: 1)No One Does It Like You 2) Phantom Other 3) In Ear Park 4) Waves of Rye 5) Floating on the Lehigh 6) Teenagers

And the always awesome Blogotheque totally followed the duo around as they terrorized respectable Chinese families somewhere around Apotheké:

#71 - Deartment of Eagles - Part 1

That and Gossip Girl ("No One Does It Like You" being the soundtrack for the S2E14 "In the Realm of the Basses" opening montage, ;-D) have kind of married this band to New York for me. Department of Eagles, I love you, and can’t wait to see you live!

Back to the Beginning

"You've always like our little songs...right from the beginning. And that's where we'll go. Right back to the beginning!"

Oh my gods, it's been a while. I'm not going to start this off too crazy, or melodramatic (I was almost thinking of posting right on January 1st), but I do want to get back to writing again. Getting these thoughts out seems like a nice way of keeping tabs on myself, and a nice way to share. Since TV, Music, and Interwebbings media are like the Tarot of my life, I'm probably going to keep talking about all that stuff. So here's a little something something to check out.



Just. Can't. Fucking. Wait. Already love them all...got my favs, but won't be sharing that just yet.

So here it is. The last term. We're starting up anew, and we're going back. Right back to the beginning...not the Bang, not the Word, but the true Beginning..."The next few months are going to be quite a ride. And I think we're all going to learn something about ourselves in the process. You'll learn that you're a pathetic schmuck, if that hasn't sunk in already...look at you, trying to do what's right. You still don't get it. It's not about right...it's not about wrong.

"It's about power."
