totally missed this email from my sis…

M.I.A, Born Free from ROMAIN-GAVRAS on Vimeo.

been into them lately.

I have been listening to this song for a week now, and just can’t stop.

guess it’s going to be a music night…

.

i just love how music defines time just as much as it preserves it. i remember sitting in starbucks studying at some crazy hour and the barista played this whole album. maybe it was the unlimited tea, maybe the mind escape…but i was hooked for life.

So the big news right now is the passing of DJ A.M. I was reading Miss Info’s blog and saw a post she had links to real heartfelt messages from Diplo and Justin Warfield. The thing that stuck with me was something that Justin Warfield had written “For me personally it’s a reminder that while it may seem like someone has everything, you never really know what’s going on inside someone else’s skin.”

I think it’s always sad to hear about the passing of someone whether or not you knew him or her personally. Think of it this way they were someone’s brother/sister, son/daughter, mother/father, husband/wife, boyfriend/girlfriend and friend…
