The Long Road

And I wished for so long, cannot stay
All the precious moments, cannot stay
It's not like wings have fallen, cannot stay
But I feel something's missing, cannot say

Holding hands are daughters and sons
And their faiths just falling down, down, down, down
I have wished for so long
How I wish for you today

We all walk the long road. Cannot stay
There's no need to say goodbye
All the friends and family
All the memories going round, round, round, round
I have wished for so long
How I wish for you today

And the wind keeps roaring
And the sky keeps turning gray
And the sun is set
The sun will rise another day

We all walk the long road. Cannot stay
There's no need to say goodbye
All the friends and family
All the memories going round, round, round, round
I have wished for so long
How I wish for you today
How I've wished for so long
How I wish for you today

We all walk the long road

The BEST THING EVER

This made me laugh so hard on Saturday night I almost couldn't breathe. Good times! Then I watched it tonight and gave myself a nosebleed!

Soap and Skin

Get the kids these days eh? Not content with being better at everything than you were at their age, they are now stupidly tech savvy and bursting with mature self-confidence. Take Anja Plaschg for instance.

Recording under the moniker Soap and Skin, the 18-year old Icelander has appeared on the music scene quietly and methodically. Her debut 'Lovetune For Vacuum' comes out on the 14th April. It's full of brooding drama and sparse dynamics and I just can't stop listening to the track Thanatos. It's like being whisked away to a Transylvanian castle by a sexy witch who wants to drink your blood; kinda scary and fantastic at the same time.

You can hear the aforementioned Thanatos on her myspace page here.
