  1. Teenage Fanclub - It’s All In My Mind

    Watch the video, listen to the song because it’s fabulous as Teenage Fanclub songs are.

    Now watch the video with the sound off.

    Either way, with the sound on or off, it’s sort of heartbreaking.

    But muted, I take it personally, as if I’m watching myself go through life, bumbling through days trying to fit in, trying to make sense of it all, wondering why it seems like the world was not made for a person like me. Just trying to enjoy life and finding myself turned away from that enjoyment so often. 

    I identify way too much with this little robot guy. 

  2. Teenage Fanclub and De la Soul - Fallin’

    For themesong, a music meme. See here for details. The theme for today is (and here’s the calendar of themes) the sounds of summer.

    I’m not in much of a summer mood on this, the first Friday of fall. I’m actually not in the mood for much today, especially writing things.

    So, this song sounds like summer to me. Always.

  3. De La Soul and Teenage Fanclub - Fallin’

    You need this song in your day. You need this song in your life. Trust me on this. I wouldn’t lie. Not about this.
