March

March winds blew cold

And a girl I wanted to hold

I didn’t know who

Until I saw her and I just knew

I just knew that everything was right

I just knew what I wanted was in sight

I just knew that everything was right

I just knew that. I just knew.

Summer winds blew us together

Forever entangled by a sharp blow.

An arrow from an angles quiver

Never again will make me shiver.

She was a girl

I was a boy

We were in different places

And we had different faces

But I just knew that everything was right

I just knew that what I wanted was in sight

I just knew that everything was right.

I just knew that. I just knew.

Though love is like a clock.

Ticking until it stops.

We’ll wind it up again,

And the hands will touch our hearts.

I just know that I’m in love with you.

I just know that you’re in love with me.

I just know love.

I just know love.


some sappy song lyrics, guys.

If everybody had a surf-band...

Come play surf music with me

Well in the grand tradition that is this lo-fi surf pop world, there are bands. Most of them are average. Some really great. They all sound the same. No exception for Art Imperial, that drench their guitars in reverb, and vocals in echo and reverb. What they can also do, is write fun songs that are good, and have a drive to them.

In their Surf Suburban EP (that can be found <<>>) for a pay as much as you want download. They write good songs. Starting with "When I'm With You (I feel dumb" which is an obvious play off a similarly titled Best Coast song. Though, despite the title, the only similarity is stylistically, and even then its minimal. These guys are a mix between Wa\/\/eS and BC, and they do it in a good way. I'd say they're like Japanese Motors or Sleeping Bags as well. Anyway, I digress. The song is poppy and fun.

The same goes for "My crystal." A song either sung about a girl named crystal, or he is using crystal figuratively, referring to his love as a crystal.  Again, an upbeat pop song. Solid, good.

Then the Inbetweener is more of a depressing song, in an upbeat fashion. It features oohs and aahs, and some good guitar work.

The last song I'll talk about (there are a couple I'm omitting, but you can listen to them), is "The one You Choose." Its somber. Its a boy singing to a girl "I'm the one you choose to fulfill your needs..." and other sexual talk. Obviously a song referring to the way a boy looks at his role in a sexual relationship. He is the boy that she chose to meet her needs sexually, and otherwise I presume.

Anyway, kick ass album, and I paid 0 for it, and heard about it from Erin.

Splash away,

New Year

New problems, and new solutions.

The new year started off great, even though I was bummed that I didn't get to see my friends in STL. I got to spend it with Erin, and had a lot of fun at a party. Kicked ass.

Then there was a lot of hanging out, and fun stuff like that. Went on a Double date, which was kind of awkward but it was okay I suppose.

Got a sweet swastika oil filler plug for a 4 speed harley.

I also started classes. I dropped out of a really tough econ class, and am instead taking "women of music" which looks to be interesting!

I went to the children's museum on MLK day with Erin, and that was a lot of fun too. All around funski.

It also froze me the fuck in my house, so I can't really do anything, besides homework which is lame, but whatever.

I learned that I do have some regrets, and I hope to glaze over them enough to the point that they just exist and aren't really regrets.

I can't wait for spring.

I'll have music soon.

Forever,
Wesley

p.s. I'm writing songs and stuff for music projects. Excite.

p.p.s. Never wrote about last year. I mean, I did. I just won't post it on here. I don't think its really appropriate to post, because I did a good job of keeping up with the going ons in my existence.

P.p.p.s. I'm kinda done writing about myself. I'll do it occasionally, but I'm going to go to what I really wanted to do with this blog, write about tunes. I'll start that tomorrow.
