This now or never

It's a weirdly fetishistic ritual, in a sense, for us wee lot, you know. The masculinist "feet" shot can take things over. Aye, when out and about (in our public 'space') we tend to (over) "indulge". STFU kidz, and all that, you may say. Do you? Still? But, for us, really, it marks an occasion, a rare event. It is done with taste, in silence, with discretion. We do try. But, sadly, at least a pair, on this infamous occasion, are missing. This time, the other, older, limbs and digits, are located here. So a fair excuse, really. The Shadow killed it, apparently. Him. Great visuals, and all that. As for me? You know, I was just happy and glad that there were no extended tears, bloody fights, stereophonic snores or frequent toliet trips in the middle of the great revealing. Sweets were eaten quietly, drinks were taken during the interval. Gazes were well placed, to the side and on the floor. That's fucking rock and roll, by the way. And I said "hello", along the way, to the one with the red hair. Too. Her. The star of the show. Shine, like you mean it.

Do try and watch this, you know. It's a brave new world. Out there.

  2. Thanks Rachel - it was a fun evening! :)

    Yes, the song is wonderfully haunting - and used quite brilliantly in the Paolo Sorrentino film, 'The Consequences of Love'. One of my favourites.

  3. Oh sweet James [to the tune of Sweet Jane] I love that band so and somehow missed this particularly charming gem. The opening to CoL is quite taut isn't it?? I'm so intrigued to watch it now, thank you for the suggestion. :)

  4. No problem Genevieve! I hope you enjoy it. And, I hadn't heard of that James song either until I watched the film, and then heard the soundtrack. It all fits perfectly, though.
