I am not easily blown away by newer artists....but I have to say I've been slapped in the junk by Owl City......this guy is amazing.....he writes songs with amazing M.I.L.F.'s..(Melodies I'd like to Fu^K)
I love the use of synthesized notes....unbelievable.
Listen to Fireflies and Meteor Shower to begin....from there, it doesn't really matter cause you will have already been hurricane'd into the haze of infatuation.

Twenty-Ten



I wonder if he felt that his destiny would come to fruition in the next couple of years, like I do? Was he scared like I am? Did he feel like a failure like I do so many times? Did he have any regrets?

I imagine him looking to the rest of his life thinking "Here I go", but maybe not as sure of himself as many think.
Maybe, just maybe, he was like me. Hesitant footsteps in the dark, hoping to feel the ground underneath, yet arms searching in the blackness for structure, trying their best to prevent total collapse.

Breathing in, breathing out.

One foot in front of the other, though no clear destination other than here.....

Right here...

Here I go.

Someday and Random Thoughts

So here is a drawing I am playing around with....I can imagine this being part of an album cover someday....

someday.....



--Sometimes I wish I was someone else...topping the list lately = Brandon Boyd.

--Every now and then I fear that my life is slipping away from me...recently has been one of the "now" times.

--I'm apprehensive about meeting succesful musicians because I fear they will see me as a fan rather than a fellow artist.

--I love the fact that I fall asleep dreaming almost every night.
