Rather than reading another word about a certain DIY filmmaker whose films I find to be repellent, here's my current playlist of songs making the rounds on my iPod. I suppose it may be too somber for everyone's tastes, but this is how I'd prefer to spend my sleepless night.01. Grizzly Bear - Don't Ask
02. Cocteau Twins - Half-Gifts
03. Blonde Redhead - Elephant Woman
04. Fleet Foxes - Blue Ridge Mountains
05. This Mortal Coil - The Jeweller (with vocals by Dominic Appleton from Breathless)
06. Slowdive - Blue Skied an' Clear
07. Deerhunter - Agoraphobia
08. Portishead - It's a Fire
09. The Verve - Beautiful Mind
10. Tom Waits - Alice
11. M83 - Run into Flowers
12. PJ Harvey - Dear Darkness
13. The Meeting Places - On Our Own
14. My Bloody Valentine - Don't Ask Why
15. Sonic Youth - Disconnection Notice
16. CocoRosie - South 2nd
17. Neutral Milk Hotel - April 8th
18. Stereolab - Super Falling Star
19. The Radio Dept. - The Worst Taste in Music
20. José González - Hand on Your Heart (which is a Kylie Minogue cover in case you weren't aware)
I had to forgo placing Slowdive's "Erik's Song," as I couldn't find it on youtube or playlist.com (I substituted it with the ever-reliable "Blue Skied an' Clear"), and I apologize for some of the stupid visuals that accompany a few of the songs. I wish there were a better way to go about it, but I'd rather not get in trouble for posting mp3s of all the songs. And, yes, this is really how I've been feeling lately.
