sam’s musicings

that’s what I’m calling my new music column

it’s not gonna be written on specific dates because once I get my feet under the table like that I’ll start to get sloppy, to be honest I think it’s just a one off

1) I’m not enjoying the new look Word magazine. it doesn’t have a spine which means no spine notes and I can’t see it from the side so I’m having to rearrange my whole magazine rack just to cater for it. and the man who used to illustrate the back page is now also doing the cover art which means things have to be going downhill.

2) I really love how happy paolo nutini sounds in that cadbury’s advert

3) my regular headphones broke in one ear so my dad has lent me some completely RANK courtesy ones. I caught my reflection in a car window on the way home and I looked daffy

4) I heard somewhere that Jandek sounds out of this world on an MP3 so I converted it and sat there for more than half an hour and absolutely nothing happened. I then found out that an MP3 was street slang for an MP3 player

here’s high by lighthouse family to play you out like we did at primary school assemblys day in day out for nigh on four years, until new headteacher turned up with her new regime which had us tramping out in silence
