I’ll fake my life like I’ve lived too much. I’ll take whatever you’re giving: not enough.

IT’S NOT THAT I CAN’T GO ON WITHOUT YOU!
GOT A LOT OF THINGS TO DO!
I’M BUSY, BUSY ALL THE TIME!
BUT I CAN’T STOP THINKING ABOUT YOU!
The Do (Trentemoeller remix)
What’s wrong with you? What is it you want? What’s so special about me? I’m ordinary. And you’re too insistent. You are too insistent. Don’t you stop an instant, i know not. Why won’t you let me go? Just let me grow, I’m still a tiny toad.
What’s wrong, it’s been so long, is it me you’re after? Days and nights and light years and still no disaster. You are so persistent. Should we act like people?
Long term listening to this song: started rubbish but gets better, a bit like the person it reminds me of. So insistent!
Trentemoller remixes are standardly quite hypnotic and addictive. God I miss my mp3s.

What an inspiration! A strong, stylish but unpretentious, independent lady defending her allegedly mutually exclusive high- and low- brow interests. Good on ya. Kick it to that snobbish, provocative interviewer. I wish I could juggle all those roles: mother, lover, radio DJ, presenter, journalist: spanning the gender genres with elegance and professional gusto in an impressive manner indeed. Go Lauren. Don’t falter.
p.s: Great fashion article led me to watch this interview… thanks helpful ‘related links’, allow my lazy research to long continue, Wish it was more like that in non-cyber world. Stumbling upon interesting things just by following your nose. Incredibly eloquent and clear headed woman, defensive of the oft-accused shallowness of fashion that habitually fills me with guilt and unease. It’s another form of humans expressing themselves creatively: like music, architecture etc. But perhaps less long lasting..? http://www.guardian.co.uk/fashion/2012/jan/08/lauren-laverne-style-fashion-column?CMP=twt_gu x
Maybe it just took me a while to see that I’ll never be the person I thought I’d be
i’m not finished yet, I still have a tattoo to get, that says “I’m living in the moment
Being an alcoholic
is similar to ‘being a hipster’ in the defensive denial stakes. It’s a hall of mirrors, man.
