J. Buckley's favorite little tune

There’s really no reason not to look back at one of the most beautiful songs ever written about unrequited love—and that one line about how true love just never actually dies is honestly incredible: "It's never over, all my blood for the sweetness of her laughter."

Still the best :')

They really are one of a kind—that concert last night was beautiful.

They’re honestly amazing.
(Where was the show? Come on, tell us how it went!)

Free concert, though you had to book via Entry—they capped attendance due to COVID protocols. They bumped up the capacity by expanding the courtyard, presumably because interest was higher than expected. Quince and Rocko opened—quite compelling, actually; it seems she gains a lot from these collaborations. It’s as if adding more instruments simply bolsters her existing ethno vibe. She mentioned that Kololir will be at the same venue in a week, which will likely follow a similar formula, just with a larger ensemble.

As for The Strokes, they were doing their usual thing (😁) offering a million different textures—warmth, grit, sonic clarity, complexity, simplicity—all perfectly executed. 😁 I think they led with most of the tracks from their latest release before digging into the old stuff. Since the crowd was thin and our vantage point was perfect—plus we had the night sky and the moon behind them (followed by some lightning :G)—it made me think: enjoy these bands while they're still together. You never know—either the crowd grows too large and the noise becomes distracting (think Dennis Hall41's clinics), or the band simply breaks up (like Vlasta Popic) and that's it.
There was an encore where Samo basically defended himself, saying, "Did you know we don't have short songs? You asked for this yourselves," 😁 delivered in his hilarious blend of Slavic dialects. Anna and Isaac are incredible musicians (she on vocals)—Samo is perhaps just a hair less so, but he connects those mantra-like repetitions beautifully and has a damn good voice that they barely used—which is a missed opportunity, really. 😁

The whole thing ran quite long, from about 9:25 PM until midnight. 🙏

I usually find myself gravitating toward instrumental tracks or new-age vibes, but with this group, I can't help but feel like they’re missing a vocal element—you know, some singing, a clear voice, lyrics, or even just mantras... something to really elevate the experience to the next level.☕
To me, they have this distinct sound that makes it feel like they might have originated from the Appalachian region.😉
I don't mean that their lack of vocals is a flaw or anything; it's really just a matter of my own personal taste. It feels like that one specific ingredient that could make them even more captivating.🙂

What a scene! 🙏🙂

Merry Christmas mr. Lawrence

Aretha Franklin and her take on that Simon and Garfunkel cover

Napalm Death

Honestly, a sledgehammer to the skull sounds like the perfect way to kick off this Monday.

They give off an Appalachian region vibe to me.😉
It isn't necessarily a flaw, just my preference. It's the missing ingredient that would make them truly captivating.🙂

Maybe they're actually the best band in the country right now.

Yeah, I had previously linked the piano etc. version. 🙂 It’s beautiful, sure, but the audio quality is a bit wonky. 😬

This is absolutely wild! 🎉

I just want to be back home 😳 😁

Jamie Davis9 said:Did I post the link? Piano, etc. The version. 🙂 It looks beautiful—but that sound is a bit off. Anyone else noticed? 😬

This is pure madness. 🎉

Well, here we go again. 😁 Both are great.

I listened—but honestly? It sounds like nothing more than an old man's rant to me. 🧐

Raw exposure. No filters, no fluff—just the sting.

Nenad’s best track—honestly one of the greatest songs ever written in English.

Midnight Bells

This track perfectly captures that weird, sweet yet sadistic vibe you get when you refuse to let anyone get too close—or maybe that’s just me.
