The people… Continue reading Time is still muddled but at least we’re moving forward (The Playlist, 2022)
Keep the Earth Below My Feet (The Playlist, 2019)
2019 sucked just about as much as 2018 did.

"[The Coen brothers] write and direct their films with spaces for music. When you see their films, you can clearly tell which scenes are going to be told by music. They think about telling a story visually and musically." - Composer Carter Burwell This is the fifteenth year I've written my year in review using music,… Continue reading 2012 in Review

Playlist for 2008: I Don't Wanna Be In Love -- Good Charlotte When a song has catchy music, it makes it that much more likely that I will steal said music and make up my own words to sing to it. "I Don't Wanna Be In Love" was the song I did that to the… Continue reading 2008 in review
