Ride - 2/5 This song is sort of nice but... boring. There is just so much better stuff out there, including Lana stuff, to listen to. American - 3/5 A little nicer, not quite as boring. I plan to find a playlist to stick it in and hope that does it justice so it can grow on me. Cola - 1/5 I think this song is entirely about drugs of various sorts. Which isn't a bad thing; I just have no life experience with substances beyond alcohol and caffeine; so I lack a point of identification. Though I have plenty of experience swapping one emotional addiction for another. So I could probably be persuaded to look deeper. (I just don't want to look any deeper into the pussy right now; I mean what the actual fuck?) Body Electric - 4/5 I'm pleased with how the studio version has turned out. BE is now worth listening to. Blue Velvet - 2/5 :tapsfingersinirritation: Boring. Gods and Monsters - 3/5 I like parts of it, and don't like other parts. I hope when I understand it better I will like it better. Yayo - 3/5 This version is lovely in its own way, but the spaciness makes me think this song is about the drug after all. I just don't see a lot of reason to listen to this one rather than the love song (yes, love song, dammit) that is Yayo 2010. Bel Air - 5/5 I adore this song so much. Bel Air is the entire point of the Paradise edition for me (at first listen. I am all about the ear candy.) Bel Air delivers. I hope when I understand it better I will still love it. Burning Desire - 3/5 Yeah, probably should have been on the album. Nice moments. Not the best. But better than half of what made it on the second CD imo. #letdownsofar #ohwellatleastnowwehavebelair #ducksandrunsforcover

Bel Air

Debating between "Remedies, sunshine... ...anyplace, I don't mind" -or- ...any face, out of mind" Does anyone have the actual lyric sheet yet?

Oops, maybe I should put these in spoiler tabs until everyone has a chance to obtain The Paradise Edition. Sorry! Cola:

But there's no him, except in her dreams tonight!!!

Well, the election is totally about the candidates, but I'll try not to make it about the voters anymore

Yeah, before Western culture descended on it, apparently!

You're a brave soul Good for you!

I truly suspect nobody cares about Romney; he's a Republican tool and that's good enough for them.

Praying Obama wins. Think he'll win the Presidential race, but nervous about my state's senate race (Virginia). College grads prefer Kaine, the Democrat, but the nice ladies at my last church let me know that education/critical thinking is a character flaw in a woman, so you know... I'm stressed. Maybe politics isn't so ridiculous in Australia, but in the U.S. it's a damn circus.

"Train in Vain" - Charli XCX :badbitch:

I don't particularly want to see her live show.

AWW, POOR KITTY!!! ( )

"You're the One" - Charli XCX I used one of my weekly Freegal download credits for this, Madrigal! (I'm not regretting it )

Actually that doesn't sound so innocent either! Hee hee, what if recording artists routinely set up their lyrics so if they got BLEEPED it would sound even worse?!?

Yayo (2010)

Allie Brosch is the funniest person in the universe. So what if she's battling severe depression. Start here ---> http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/2009/07/open-letter-to-my-neighbors.html but be sure to check out her "Best of" in the right column if you're still not convinced!

I don't know much about her; she is/was homeless? It's sad that so many arrogant, entitled people in the world are projecting their own arrogance and entitlement onto less privileged people these days. She sounds like a problem-solver by nature. I can see how people who don't want to admit there's a problem could find that pretty threatening, and write off diagnosis as destructive behavior.

I love that outro too. But I was thinking it could be more modern-retro, like The Black Crowes or something.

Can't have that. I repent! "Honey, good news -- I recruited two sister wives! The bad news is, they're two straight dudes. So yeah, I have no idea if the house is going to get any cleaner... but I can guarantee that the nightly fight over the remote is going to be AMAZING..."

Sounds like it. As much as I enjoyed grunge at the time, it killed off blues metal AND I'M STILL PISSED... They said YES!!! I know my husband, he wouldn't have to be told...
