we never lost control...

tonight i realized that i havent listened to my favorite song in a while. i know ive said that i couldnt possibly make a playlist of my favorite songs because i would forget so many of them. but i do have one absolute favorite song that i wouldnt mind listening to on repeat for the rest of my life.
it is the man who sold the world (unplugged) by nirvana.
first of all i names my blog after it, it has to be good. its beautiful and sad and musically great and catchy at the same time. it was written by david bowie and, originally, quite shitty. like cheezy bowie robot voice 80s shitness. the nirvana version is much more melodic and emotional. 
for example (my favorite lines)...

he said i was his friend
which came as a surprise
i spoke into his eyes
i thought you died alone
a long long time ago

this song is about losing yourself and being ziggy stardust. i would not like to experience either.

i was born to be your 4th member...

I LISTENED TO ANIMAL COLLECTIVE. dissapointing. that new song my girl is just weird. i wouldnt bother with them.
FLEET FOXES ON SNL. vat ze fuck. barely anyone has heard of them but its not like the show will get them some big break. and this is the same show that considered ashley simpson a "musical act"- not exactly indie cred.
