Dare I Say I'm Actually....Excited? For New Moon?!

Oddly enough, the answer is yes (!)

Although, I think that the soundtrack may have a thing or two to do with it:

1. Death Cab For Cutie – Meet Me On The Equinox

2. Band Of Skulls – Friends

3. Thom Yorke- Hearing Damage

4. Lykke Li – Possibility

5. The Killers - A White Demon Love Song

6. Anya Marina – Satellite Heart

7. Muse - I Belong To You (New Moon Remix)

8. Bon Iver and St. Vincent – Rosyln

9. Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - Done All Wrong

10. Hurricane Bells – Monsters

11. Sea Wolf – The Violet Hour

12. Ok Go- Shooting The Moon

13. Grizzly Bear (with Beach House’s Victoria Legrand) - Slow Life

14. Editors – No Sound But The Wind

15. Alexandre Desplat – New Moon (The Meadow)


Death Cab, Lykke Li, Anya Marina, AND Grizzly Bear all on the same album?? AND a Bon Iver and St. Vincent collaboration! Trying to appeal to a more mature audience, Chris Weitz? Well, I think it's working (see Nylon blogs). Now, if we could only get rid of that pesky Kristen Stewart.....

Recovery

my body has betrayed me,
literally twisted in on itself,
and forced me to sit
still and
quiet.
stiff backed and weary eyed
i am commanded to think,
to catch up.
i'm am overwhelmed at what i find
deep at the pocket-bottom of my brain:
a pair of bright green eyes that i took for granted
and my own misguided superiority;
this song that will be my secret on repeat
and my love of the written word.

i want to be well again.
