I don't know how to start this entry I don't know how to start this entry I don't know how to start this entry I don't know how to...(etc etc etc)
I was looking through all my older and un-listened to CDs today. I'm not really horrified at anything I found, but rather curious as to why I took interest in them, ever. Lesse...Red Hot Chili Peppers "Californication". I don't dislike that album, but I've never really liked it much, either. And don't get me wrong, I really like the Chili Peppers. Just not...that album. I think at the time, I was really really hyped about "All Around The World", so I decided it was damn-well worth it to go for the freaking album. Oh, yeah, then I found A-sides by Soundgarden. Blech, Soundgarden. I was weird in 8th grade. There's just this quality to their music I'm not very fond, and I have yet to identify it *ponder ponder ponder*. I think that CD might have actually helped to turn me away from any form of popular music (save for JPOP, of course). I don't even know why. Usually, when I get an album and I don't like it, I come to like it after a while of listening. It was the exact opposite in the case of this CD. I repeat, BLECH, Soundgarden.
Now we come to my list of "ashamed-of" CDs (or "should-be" ashamed of CDs...for some reason, I don't give a damn, and still listen to most of them). Shameful CD #1: Space Ghost Musical Bar-B-Q, I have only Rob to blame for that. I don't feel like giving any particular explanations, though, especially not truthful ones so live with it. I do, however, still listen to it, especially when I'm in one of my weird moods. So overall, I don't regret that CD. I'm just mildly ashamed that I paid money for it, when mp3-snagging was just around the corner for me. Shameful CD #2: Ranma 1/2 Opening/Ending CD. I remember exactly how it happened. I was in Japan, I happened to be over-obsessive with Ranma 1/2, I saw the CD and I immediately put down the 30 some-odd dollars so I could make it my own. The music is sort of dorky in a 10-year-old-japanese-school-girl sort of way (which is ironic because it's actually a series more in mind for boys), but I still listen to it, because I got it in Japan and it reminds me of Japan and it just doesn't bother me. Other Shameful CDs: R.E.M.'s UP and REVEAL, because they sucked, but still it was REM, so I felt i needed to own and contribute. Now Peter Buck's in prison. ALso, perhaps the Robert Miles stuff. But I'm thinking that maybe another listen to it is in order before I say that, because I can't remember most of the songs. Glad I didn't burn that "Aiko" CD from Mai, or else I'd really be ashamed. *shudder*
And I really hope this 10mb song I'm downloading is really worth it, because 10mb is a freaking while, but its' Buffalo Daughter, and damn they're cool. So far, Dr. Moog is the best song I've heard, but I've only heard four, so blech. Among the list of my "recently gotten cool crap" is Dragon Ash "Deep Impact". I hated it at first, because it was loud and monotonous and Japanese rap, but the more I really listened to it, the less I could resist. There's this eight measure sequence at the end where they do a major key pattern thing and DAMN it's cool. I mean, we're talking aside from "Shizukana Hibi na kaidan wo" which is the coolest thing I've ever heard.
And my mother just let out long/bad sigh at me. It's because I havn't been hanging things up in my closet. BECAUSE SHE KEEPS GOING IN AND TIDYING THINGS UP FOR ME WHILE I'M GONE (and because I'm a difficult child, fuu fuu fuu ^_~) and my room/closet is like my hidey hole that no one can enter without my permission. It doesn't seriously upset me, because she's my mother, but I guess I let things bother me easily and such. Blech.
5.3 mb, a few more to go.
