Here are a bunch of songs by the New Zealand band "Goldenhorse"...to me the sound epitomizes The Southern hemisphere...definitely there it has a special something that you won't hear out of The North...It's almost like our mild balmy weather, wide open space or laid back summer culture are infused into the music... It's weird but as we've hit Summer...the cultured festival season here I'm getting back into indulging film and music interests in a very big way...lol just need to keep to a budget I think(!) hehe

BJORK/Virus
lol i LOVE it!!! This is off Bjork's latest album Biophilia...i really love how this album is all about the natural world...and yes, I am particularly amused that there is a song all about a virus...it is so refreshing after the overdone theme of love and unrequited love. It's like...get some originality! THANK YOU Bjork!! :)
It really is amazing actually how the instrumentalism of this song really does convey that sense of the "organic"- the chaos yet order of an organism...alive!

DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE/Marching Bands of Manhattan
I'm not sure why but this song resonates lately...not sure if it's the mood or the fact that I have extremely itchy feet to hopefully try life in a geography where more cultured and educated intellectuals exist...and yes Manhattan would be in the shortlist...definitely!!!
So I have to counsel my itchy feet and restless soul with PATIENCE right now...good things come to those who can wait...

SONNY & CHER/I got you babe
There are some songs that are just...classic...like this one :) I think the last time I remember seeing it on a tv show was probably that classic I grew up with THE WONDER YEARS :)
Anyway I thought this clip was pretty cool...it was just astounding to realise...wow, Cher was actually once young!!
Anyway this was just the closing song on the final episode of the most recent season of MAD MEN...reminded me that life can just change drastically in a split second...I think we often get so bogged down in daily drudgery and routines we often forget to remember life's possibilities :)
