rewind. cant play this song only once. its got me thinking off the wall/thriller to for the same reason.
mastery. command. power. exhilaration of that.

And the pathos of the joy in Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston, given their respective destinies, is a great example of that

Joy belongs to the young

The older I get the more pathos I find in joy

I mean, I've had to write about the songs I've chosen (which aren't fixed yet) and I've listed that joy can be angry, joy can be sad, joy can be drugs, joy can be suicide, I don't think joy is restricted, it's just a route to freedom, or maybe freedom itself.

Sorry I never liked that Boo Radleys song.

I think, Luka, that this is joyous, so negates the idea that indie can't be. I think it's harmonies. Voices together. Remember that?

PS if you think you know this song, this version is better than you thought :

diabolical hedonism. i'd say it's not joy, but physiologically feels the same.

i do like that song but i find the voices and the sound flat and muddy (i have this problem with the beatles) and it has almost a dirge like drag that stops it achieving lift off in the way the chorus should enable it to do. or maybe im just prejudice!

i dont need to point out that this is something we hold in common. it taps into what sloane was saying about freedom i think. and into what i was saying about the body throwing off the shackles. it's very energising and powerful.

Yeah it's a weird one that song. In the right place, at the right time, I could put that on and I could make you weep. But maybe Dissensus isn't the right forum, which means it isn't quite right. See Lee Mathers problem all his life.
