my frog is crying

I love Prince. Tony turned me onto him, when we first dated. We would listen to Little Red Corvette over and over until we felt like listening to something like The Cure or The Pixies. First loves do that to you, you'll do anything they say just to stay in their presence a little longer. He taught me that musicians are either overly sensitive or ( Read more... )

I think there's always an association with people, good or bad depending on the memory. Sometimes I can't listen to a certain song or do a certain thing because of it. A select handful of musicians write songs about the experience and refuse to play the songs because of the emotional scarring that poured out from it. First love has that deep impact that scars you for years.

Also, some channel today had older footage from the early days of the Pixies along with interviews from Thom Yorke, David Bowie and PJ Harvey. It made me want to listen to Kim's voice again.

It used to be hard for me to sing "Don't Speak" but I eventually got over that as soon as I learned it was a big hit. I think the first love is something everyone should experience by default.

Haha, Thom Yorke. I love Kim Deal's voice, I've been a big fan of The Pixies for years.

Why does your frog have a crown? k__kurkova April 26 2005, 20:39:51 UTC
I, too, like Prince. I like that you used Love Is A Battlefield lyrics in this. That is one of my favourite songs. Heartache to heartache, we stand. No promises, no demands. Love is a battlefield.

You have turned Kate Moss into Catwoman.

Because he's a prince in desguise waiting for me to kiss him. stefani__g April 26 2005, 20:53:58 UTC
love is a battlefield is such an appropriate song for heart break. Who sings it do you remember? I feel like waving a flag to patronize heartbreak.

She wants to become Robert Smith's lovecat and so do I. We're going to kidnap him and Prince soon.

I hope that he has a marginally attractive frog brother. k__kurkova April 26 2005, 20:57:36 UTC
Was it Pat Benatar? I want to say it is Pat Benatar, but I could be wrong. I remember the video and how she had a bunch of wayward girls dancing behind her.

I hope I can come. I am very skilled with knots, in case you need someone tie to tie their hands together for when we stick them in the back of our getaway van.

Sigh, Pat Benetar. Anyway. You can't experience the good without the bad, the sweet without the bitter. Heartbreak lends to that. You can't really laugh like you feel like your heart's about to explode until you've cried like your heart has been ripped in two. It's all about balance. If you gotta do what's good for you at times, just to maintain, then so be it.

Yes it was Pat Benetar - in that video where they were all supposed to be prostitutes. I guess love makes prostitutes of us all sometimes doesn't it? Love can be a battlefield, but it's the war you want to win.

Yasmin and I have been happily married for near twenty years now. but I think it's because we don't keep a tight leash on each other. Some could say it's an "open marriage" but I don't think that's how she explains it to the girls, perhaps when they are old enough. Sometimes once you accept that you can't change the other person it is jsut wiser to find the boundaries and parametres of the relationship that work for the both of you. Compromise and things can go on quite well for a very very long time.

You're definitely not bad, only realistic and honest with yourself. There are concessions and compromises in every relationship and ours in no exception. I would never expect the ordinary from you, even when it comes to our commitment to each other.
I think the static in my head is still keeping me numb and for some reason I sound as if I am commenting on something outside of my own situation. I guess I am still at a loss.
