May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Ah, if only it was the “Birth of Venus”. Lol. As if I could hold a candle to Botticelli OR Venus. That aside…yesterday was an anniversary. Five years ago I bought the photo editing app for my iPad Mini that…well, not to put too fine a point on it…kind of changed my life. Well it…
Oh, man. It stings again. I don’t ever remember feeling this way before – or at least not for a very long time. A discussion of friends in his latest post and … it just has me wishing again. To be one. DEEMED one. (A friend.) You know…the more you want something. Lol There are…
Well, that’s how the saying goes. You can be the judge… Today’s the 38th anniversary of the release of Glittering Prize, and Big Dan is finally in the frame. For someone who only ever watches the video for Jim’s bits, I’m not sure I ever really missed him, to be fair.
For want of a better title – I went with this. It seemed most appropriate. Running Up That Hill – Kate Bush Teen years. I bought it as a single. I think it just made me wish for different things. For me, it has always been a downbeat song. Melancholic. Something sounds regretful about it….
I wish more than anything I could paint him. I honestly, absolutely get lost in his beauty. To me, esp. when I am working on art and he is at the centre of it all and I am deep into my spell, mouthing the words under my breath in short intervals “he’s beautiful. He’s just…
As I am beginning to work through certain things…getting back to some sort of “balance” – I need to work at the writing. A major part of the problem is not having somewhere comfortable to write but, hey ho! Not a lot I can do about it, really. It would be great to have a…
OMG…TOPLESS ADONIS ALERT! Just when I’m trying to overcome this….obesession with this man – THIS SHOWS UP! Fucking look at him!! Oh, fuck! BE STILL MY BEATING OVARIES! Thank god it is cool in Glasgow today compared to most of everywhere else in Europe, cos I’m about to combust! JIM KERR YOU ARE FUCKING DELICIOUS!…
A lovely 30 minute chunk of Simple Minds recorded in Dublin in March, 2012. Really nicely done. Fine video work, Trevor. Thank you so much for filming it and taking the care to add better audio. Excellent work! For those of us who missed the tour, this is as near to a TARDIS as we’ll…
My video reply to Jim’s August playlist as well as what minimal stuff I’ve been currently listening to. Also, with the mention of Stevie Wonder, I obviously meant the album Hotter Than July and not “Master Blaster”. I don’t know why I was calling the album Master Blaster. Silly fool!
I haven’t listened to it myself, yet. That will wait until later tonight as I settle to bed (it is usually when I do my listening to music. Haven’t been listening to much lately, in all honesty. I may just play one or two songs in a whole day). Some songs are unfamiliar to me…
