Not sure how you feel about The Streets but "Weak Become Heroes" has this great bit where it transitions from the yearny piana chords, "still remember my first e", to the bare bones of sitting in a cafe, old and washed up.
It makes me want to cry just thinking about it actually.
There was a period of time in which lots of young men seemed to think that Lost In Translation had opened a window of some sort into their souls, and I think we can retroactively diagnose this as misidentified thirst for Scarlett Johansson, who was undeniably alluring in it, in that sort of slightly vacant way that leaves plenty of room for projection. It would be instructive to screen it back to back with Under The Skin.

I find Aphex's beautiful stuff inhumanly beautiful. Almost beautiful in the same depersonalised way that a cloud is.* Whereas 'Let's Stay Together' is beautiful in the way that saying goodbye forever to someone you love is.

She certainly got under the skin of Craner who was like a cartoon dog, tongue lolling out and drooling

Beauty that's terrifying. A reminder that 'awful' and 'awesome' really mean the same thing.

Well, I can sympathise, although it's always struck me as strange that history has just forgotten that Thora Birch was far and away the hotter and more interesting of the two of them in Ghost World.
