Modern Poetry...

Those of you who know me particularly well will know what a massive advocate of music in all it's forms (okay, that's a lie. I like a particular kind of music, i.e. good music, and am very vocal in my criticisms of any other form of music, mostly because I don't see it as music).

I don't like Rap or R'n'B (I'm fine with Rhythm and Blues, but not R'n'B - if I need to explain the difference, we're no longer friends. And that would be tragic, wouldn't it? Thought so).

Anyway, most modern stuff is pretty terrible, but occasionally you can across a piece of gold:

Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end?

That's the chorus to Nelly Furtardo's "All Good Things (Come To An End)". First time I heard it I almost cried. If you are going to listen to it, I'd recommend the Norwegian Recycling version which you can download for free.

Another song that makes me cry is "The Scientist" by Coldplay:

Nobody said it was easy,
It's such a shame for us to part.
Nobody said it was easy,
No one ever said it would be this hard.

Oh take me back to the start.

Yeah. Music has this amazing ability to stir up these fantastic emotions in us. I think that the music we chose to listen to says something about us as a person. I listen to Chameleon Circuit, so I'm obviously a total nerd.

I'm gonna go listen to some Kate Nash, so, until next time, au revoir.
