Corpsey
bandz ahoy
Think I've got my etymology right here: χολή (kholḗ, “bile”).
I am sat in a café in London and they were just playing that Cardigans song from the Romeo And Juliet OST. This depressed me, as I was lately depressed by hearing the same old festive pop songs from the 80s in a Tesco's in the lead up to Christmas.
I had thought this was simply a symptom of getting older, having seen and heard it all before, and realising how limited the scope of life is, and I still suppose it is. But it's also the ever-presence of the past isn't it, in the streaming era?
I don't know that this is worth a thread, and no doubt Simon covers this in Retromania itself, but does anyone else find this sense of there being no future and even no PRESENT in the contemporary world?
A feeling of being trapped in a closed loop.
