syd barrett's any/everything:

i want to 

but won't

try to figure

him out.

his words are like

a baby's. genius but

incomprehensible.


"i am only a person!"

the clash's "train in vain (stand by me)":

the only song other than wu-tang clan's "shame on a nigga" that is guaranteed to pull me from bad states. i dream of becoming a karaoke god to this.

brian eno's "third uncle":

i like to think this is eno's version of a love ballad. if it was given to me on a mix tape i would swoon.


"AND THERE WAS YOU."

black star's "brown skin lady":

the material is nothing groundbreaking. despite this opinion i now wish (even more desperately) that i were brown. 


"damn she's fine!"

"you provoke a brother."

the pixies' "ed is dead":

i'm talking Death to the Pixies Live at full volume. i'm talking who's ed but who cares. i'm talking 2:07 +.

my bloody valentine's "sometimes":

holds one of the more special places in my soul. i fell into it at a lonelier time than now and hearing it now softens what was. that voice.

the pharcyde's "labcabincalifornia" (album):

perfection.
