Music is the language of us all
11:35 am Fri, 21st January 2005Am really loving my latest CD purchases. I bought The Cat Empire’s “The Cat Empire” and Switchfoot’s “Beautiful Letdown” earlier this week – and I love em both! Quite different genres of music, but both very enjoyable. I’m going to see Switchfoot when they tour in March. Should be awesome. 🙂 I’m also really wanting to see The Cat Empire live (if/when they come up to Sydney again) – they sound like an AWESOME band to see live! You can tell they just love music, and that’s what they’re all about – with their complex and ever changing rhythms, awesome improv solos, and the boundless energy in their music.
I love variety in music – there is something awesome in every genre, something that touches the soul in every song. I know my musical tastes are pretty eclectic (I mean, who loves both Britney Spears AND Radiohead?!) – but really, I think I’m the lucky one, being able to discover and enjoy the range of different music. No need for elitism here. 😛
I’ve also borrowed Missy Higgins cd from my brother – I need to get familiar with her stuff (and a whole bunch of other bands I’ve not had the chance to listen to much) before Wave Aid on the 29th. I prefer going to gigs being at least a little bit familiar with the bands stuff. It’s more enjoyable that way. 🙂
Current listening :: “Ten Days” – Missy Higgins (I *like* this song.. just really touches me for some reason)
So we’ve put an end to it this time
I’m no longer yours and you’re no longer mine
You said this hill looks far too steep
If I’m not even sure it’s me you wanna keep
And it’s been ten days without you in my reach
And the only time I’ve touched you is in my sleep
But time has changed nothing at all
You’re still the only one that feels like home
I’ve tried cutting the ropes and
I let you go but you’re still the only one
That feels like home
You won’t talk me into it next time
If I’m going away your heart’s coming too
Cos I miss your hands I miss your face
When I get back let’s disappear without a trace
Cos it’s been ten days without you in my reach
And the only time I’ve touched you is in my sleep
But time has changed nothing at all
You’re still the only one that feels like home
I’ve tried cutting the ropes
Tried letting go but you’re still the only one
That feels like home
Ack… my body is killing me today. Been doing some pretty intense exercise every night for the past 3 nights. Body Pump class on Tues night, cardio & Body Balance on Wed night, and then finally my HipHop class last night (which was awesome btw!)
Ugh. Can’t. Move. Too. Painful.

I also have a various taste of music… But I think I like female artists more… (I’m not a feminist or something though) 🙂
