I rediscovered Esthero a few weeks ago and am in love with her style... it only took 14 years lol

Esthero - Heaven Sent

Obsequious Robonaught

I bumped into Obs and he pointed out these two songs:

Dan Mangan - Road Regrets

Cinematic Orchestra feat. Patrick Watson - "To Build a Home"

(Text from the video) Astrophysicist Dr. Neil DeGrasse Tyson was asked by a reader of TIME magazine, "What is the most astounding fact you can share with us about the Universe?" This is his answer.

Fields of the Nephilim

Imagine Snake Pliskin (from Escape from LA/Ney York) having read (and underlined) the stuff about angels in all the books left out the Bible, strange stuff from Sumeria co-mingled with H.P. Lovecraft's Old Gods.

Now picture all that taking the form of a rock band - with smoke, lights, trenchcoats, black hats - and you'll get moments something like those in the videos below, which are from Fields of the Nephilim's 2008 live shows in London - released in 2012.

Best band ever.

Fields of the Nephilim - Wail Of Sumer / And There Will Your Heart Be Also

Fields of the Nephilim - Psychonaut

Stereophonics - In a Moment

Posting this song on behalf of Leona:

Stereophonics - In A Moment

You think you've got it all
The writing is on the wall
You're praying to your Lord
Searching for your soul
Cause you just need to know
The emptiness will go
In a moment

The Head and the Heart

The Head and the Heart - Rivers and Roads

Been talking bout the way things change
and my family lives in a different state
and if you don't know what to make of this
then we will not relate

Rivers and roads (x2)
rivers 'til i reach you



The Head and the Heart - Down In The Valley

One more for the stars and the eyes of the walls
I saw your face, I heard you callin' out

I saw your face in the crowd and you came out
Just like the sun and the moon and the stars at night

There was a sign on the door and it reads to me
Just like the sun and the moon and the stars at night

A guilty pleasure of sorts

KANJENA

There can be no shame in pleasure, and no guilt in the art of partying, as long as nobody gets hurt then there's no need for remorse. There is pleasure in the infliction of discomfortingly uncool music on those that take themselves too seriously, and there is no shame enjoying the moment as they squirm in their self righteous seats. The wonder of Sabrina singing Boys is in the simple power of a strident and dominating female, wanting boys for her non guilty pleasure, looking for a good time shamelessly, and gladly bouncing around the pool, demanding that they, the boys, "get ready for my love"
As an 11 year old I wanted to be her, to have a body like that, to frolic in a pool in the sunshine surrounded by adoring boys and girls, and to be in control of that sunshine, to have the power to bring the sunshine down and just sink under the water and drown in boys, boys, boys...there's the guilt and there's the pleasure.

Guilty pleasures of the Ninetails

Thank you very much to the Prof and the Profette for their contributions.....more to come over the week :)

PROFESSOR TERI NINETAILS

So, yeah, there is definitely a song I jam out to, but only when nobody else can hear; I make sure the windows are up in my car for this one. Miley Cyrus, Party in the USA. I just can't help it, okay? I'm just... noddin' my head like "yeah," and movin' my hips like "yeah"...

PROFESSORETTE VIOLET NINETAILS

Oh, one of these things? Crap. I can never pick one thing so I'm just going to close my eyes and blurt out the first thing that comes to mind: Crush - Jellyhead! I have absolutely no idea how long I've loved this song, but hearing it makes me feel fourteen with the world ahead of me every time. It's actually kind of a "Hate You" song, I guess, but it's super optimistic to me; I suppose that may be all the nostalgia I have stuck to it. Or, you know, literally anything by Savage Garden, but that's cheating because I was a thirteen year old girl once.
