Thom Yorke: What I've Learned

ベジタリアンになるのであればレンズ豆を心底好きにならなきゃいけない。そうでなきゃやってられない。

-

すべての壁は屋根が落ちないなら(どれだって)すごい。
※All walls are great if the roof doesn't fall…Björkと一緒に歌った“I've seen it all”の歌詞に同じ言葉がある

-

父に言われたのは人は気がふれてしまうこともあると覚悟しておけ、ということ。それは事実にほかならないと思い込むよう常に期待されていた。人に対して強く疑念を抱くこと、人を信用してはいけないと父は僕に教えようとしていた。子供に対してちょっと大げさ過ぎたと思う。僕はそれを直さなきゃならなかった。

-

より良いことは人を信じようと試みること、誤りを暴き立てられるまで。

-

歌うことを始めたのは他に歌うやつが見当たらなかったから。頼んだやつらはみんなどうしようもないバカばっかりだった。

-

二万人の観衆はひとつの大きな塊みたいにも見える、だけど実際、ステージの上を歩いていって10分以内に彼らが発するものを感じ取れるかっていうのは本当に興味深いことなんだ。

-

僕らが最初にR.E.M.のサポートを始めたとき、客がディナーにチキンをオーダーしてる場所でライブをしたことがあって、それはちょっと頭にきた。

僕は長い間病院にいた、子供の頃に。左目が閉じた状態で生まれたから、まぶたが開くように尻から筋肉の組織を取って移植しなければならなかった。それで4、5回手術を受けた、すごく小さい頃から。5歳の頃には駄々をこねていたようだ。「ね、やらなきゃいけないんだよ」「やってくれたら何でも好きな物を買ってあげる、ね?何が欲しい?」なんて親が言うもんだから、僕は「赤いトラックスーツが欲しい」って言って、それを買ってもらった、上下セットで。病院に戻るのがすごくうれしかった、全身麻酔をかけられて目が覚めたら至るところで吐いてしまうってわかってても。その赤いトラックスーツが大好きだった。自分にはもう小さすぎておかしく見えるまでその赤いトラックスーツを着てた。
※赤いトラックスーツ…恐らく彼は70年代に放送されていたテレビドラマ“The Six Million Dollar Man(600万ドルの男)”を子供の頃に好んで観ていたのだろう。アメリカ空軍のパイロットで宇宙飛行士として月にも行ったことがある主人公スティーブ・オースティン大佐はテスト機の実験中に事故に遭い、命は取り留めたが左目を失明、右腕・両足不随となる重傷を負うが、改造手術を受けてサイボーグ(バイオニック・マン)となり政府の秘密情報機関のエージェントとして活躍する。赤いトラックスーツを着た姿が代表的なイメージで、当時発売されていた人形なども赤いトラックスーツを着ている。トムは過去のインタビューでも自分の目の手術について「“bionic eye”(バイオニック・アイ-サイボーグの目)みたいに」と語っている。

敬意とはもし誰かと政治的なことで言い争いになったら、政治家をファシストだと言って切り捨てる前にちょっと振り返って、いったい彼らはどのようにしてこの完全なる無知と愚かさに屈したのか考えてみるんだ。

-

学生の頃銀行にずっとクレジットカードを止められてた。しつこいチェックを止められなかったみたいで。いつも銀行と電話してた。すごく満足した日は、大きなレコードの契約にサインした後で銀行へ行って借金を全部払ってやったとき。机の向こうから出てきて握手してきた銀行家にfuck off(失せろ、クソ食らえ)って言ってやった。どんな反応だったかって?彼はそんなことには慣れきってたんじゃないかな。

-

いつもATMへ行っていくら欲しいのか訊かれると「お前にできる最大限をよこせ」って言うよ。

-

街の本屋に行ったら詩集を3、4冊手に入れて、コーヒー・ショップで座ってしばらくそれを読み耽る。運動の前に筋肉を解きほぐすみたいに。

-

祖父は田舎にある僕らの家にやってくると、よく自転車をひとつ借りて姿を消したもんだった。暗くなってから帰ってくるんだけど、どこに行っていたのか僕らにはわからなかった。もし彼が誰かと偶然会ったら良いナイトクラブはどこにあるか尋ねただろう。そんなことを90になってもやってたよ。

-

僕はもう失望なんて感じない。でも時が過ぎていくことにプレッシャーをすごく感じる。

-

ある日、息子と座っていて息子の11歳の友達もいた、僕は「よし、算数をやろう。生まれてから何秒経ってるか計算してみるんだ」って言ってみた。しばらく時間がかかったけど、(答えに)辿り着いたよ。

-

子供は気分を軽くして愉快でいることを教えてくれる、当時はあまり楽ではなかったから、それはとても役に立った。彼らはそのための恩恵だったよ。

-

長い間に渡って人が病むのは自分の意見はもう固まっていて変えられない、自分の思考に責任を持たなければならないと思い込んでしまうせいだと思う。だけど実際は-僕が見るに-思考とは心に風が吹き抜けることだ。

-

長い時間を要する、観衆が月曜の夜に寛ぐには。

-

人生に空白を作るんだ。息継ぎをすること。ちゃんと休むこと。

-

欲しいものをすべて手に入れること-どんなこととも関係がない。

-

もし僕らが表舞台に出てヒット曲とかくだらないやつをやっていたら、物事についてまったく違ったことを感じていただろう。でも僕らは新しいことをやってる、そして実際は演奏するのがすごく難しいものもある。2万人もの人たちが僕らのかなり狂っててラジオでは流れないような音楽をやるのを観に来るっていうのは…良いことだね、うん。フェニックスでやったときEdと僕はステージを降りてお互い顔を見合わせたんだよ。あれ見たか?って。

-

想像できない、20年先のことなんて、だって僕は今ここにいるんだし。

In data 01/01/2013, esce il nuovo album di Savio De Martino, intitolato "Ancora Vivo".

Un titolo che nasce speranzoso, proprio a dispetto delle previsioni fatte dal popolo dei Maya sulla fine del mondo, e sulla situazione economica globale ed epocale che lo stesso mondo contemporaneo sta vivendo.

Le traccie dell'album sono 16 canzoni fatte di testa e di cuore, che spaziano fra loro, dal pop al rock, con richiami armonici alla musica jazz.

Raffinata e' la scelta dei sound, dei suoni e delle atmosfere musicali, cercando di vestire sull' artista stesso, un abito che calzi a pennello con la voce e le parole.

Fra le varie canzoni, ci sono pezzi di rilievo come "Da un anno senza te" canzone valutata dalla commissione di Sanremo Giovani 2013, a "Maledettamente bella" una romantica ballad d'amore, passando per "E inferno sia" dove la passione e il sentimento arrivano all'anima, per poi arrivare a "Mai il migliore" un' attenta e delicata analisi di coscienza che tutti dovremmo fare, e infine c'e' "Per un giorno nuovo" un messaggio di speranza e ottimismo rivolto soprattutto alla nuova generazione.

I testi e le musiche di ogni canzone sono scritte dallo stesso cantautore, fatta eccezione per la canzone "Vivo", dove ne cura solamente il testo, mentre per la parte musicale fa riferimento a "Y si fuera ella", canzone del grande cantautore spagnolo Alejandro Sanz.

Un album dunque da vivere, ascoltare e conservare nel tempo delle emozioni pure.

Prodotto dalla "S.D.M.  Production" di Savio De Martino, l'album e' invece distribuito dalla nota etichetta discografica "Zeus Record s.r.l." -  Napoli Project - in tutta Italia e Europa.

..."across the oceans that divide us"...

"I am the Amazon"...!!!....This world needs Artists. This article really captured everything...and i mean everything...the true definition of Art and what it means for humanity. How much we NEED all forms of Art...poetry, music, dance, theatre, painting! Finally. Sigh. This is so beautiful, indepth and clear writing! How refreshing.. Love, Love Looooove it. I really really enjoyed the style and expression. Will read more of Jay Griffith, for sure.

some quotes from the Forests of the Mind...Jay Griffith...

---"Shape-shifting is a transgressive experience, a crossing over: something flickers inside the psyche, a restless flame in a gust of wind, endlessly transformative. The mind moves from its literal pathways to its metaphoric flights. Art is made like this, from a volatile bewitchment, of a self-forgetting and an identification with something beyond."

---"In making art, the artist expires, breathing herself out to allow the inspiring to happen, the breathing in of glinting universal air, intelligent with many minds, electric and on the loose. Artist, shape-shifter, shaman or poet, all are lovers of metamorphosis, all are minded to vision, insight and dream."

---"Only a metaphor seemed a craft strong enough for me to cling to, a boat to carry my grief across the sea to someone else's mind"

SIXTY-NINE

who knows. maybe i'll see you again someday. stranger things have happened after all.

it's a small city

we'll see.

 

or not

 

we'll see. one way or the other.

 

what's there to see exactly?

 

there's this movie that i like. that i watched again the other night.

these two characters have a very brief affair. and it comes to an abrupt and odd end.

one of them says to the other as it's ending: "what's wrong with you?"

and the other replies: "let me think about that. i'll tell you the next time i see you."

to which: "sure. tell me then."

on my first 1 or 2 viewings, i always thought the one *believed* they would see the other again, and that they would say just what was wrong with them. but this last time, on friday, i recognized that they only said it because they knew they would never see the other again.

what's there to see, K----? I don't know. and that's ok.

 

ah, what a hemingway-esque dialogue. yes, it's okay.

...I remember the day that I walked away from this empty flight...
 

it was a month ago today.

Everybody dies

Everybody dies. We are all mortal. Our body's were meant for this earth but our souls are not. As our earthly beings die our souls keep on living! To me there is a beautiful side to death. A side to death that is not sad but that signifies eternity. My Grandpa Len passed 2 days ago. We don't know how he died, but there will be an autopsy to find out. I was never close to him at all, I only really know him from very distant memories of Terrace where I was born and from when he and my Nana (my dads step-mum) would come to visit us as they were on there way to Vancouver or what not. Who ever reads this may think I'm a loon for saying that death is slightly beautiful to me but oh well. Unfortunately we do not know where our souls go. There is the belief of heaven or hell, there is the belief of ghosts or guardians, but truthfully there is no way to tell. I am not sure what I believe. I think I need to not listen to what other people tell me and just find what I believe in my heart.What do you think happens to our souls? What do you believe?

Atlanta Georgia 3/1/12

One of the, if not the, best days of my life! I dreamed it would happen. I prayed it would happen. It did! I saw the greatest band ever, live in concert, in my city. Thank you again Radiohead. I am listening to that concert on Follow them Around. It is in my mind's eye -videotape! XOXO11010975681?profile=original

A wonderful day

Today has been gorgeous. Two really great friends of mine came with me thrifting and I scored a sweet pair of overalls. Just to let everyone know, I LOVE overalls, so I couldn't have been more happy to get this great pair that fit wonderfully. Sushi for lunch, and back at my house we jammed to 'high and dry', and 'no surprises'. Neither of my friends are as much of a Radiohead fanatic as I am but they still dig it. Seriously W.a.s.t.e is just making me feel great, I really do enjoy it here! Its going to be another late night, so perhaps I should sign off and get ready to go. Peace be with everyone who comes across this and I hope you had a great day as well.

Its a new day!

Its a new day, and so far a very good one. I slept on the couch last night, for some reason I have my best sleeps out there, I guess because there is to many distractions in my room. Tomorrow two of my friends and I are going thrifting!  I'm really excited because I had the idea in my head to be a fashion designer, but I'm still on the fence about that. I love fashion though, but not really regular teenage fashion, if that makes any sense at all I doubt it does.

Joining  W.A.S.T.E.-CENTRAL is something I never do. I'm really not an online person at all, I don't even have Facebook. But I was extremely curious because I knew that this had something to do with Radiohead, I hope I'm not coming across as dumb but really I almost have no idea what any of these things are!!  Seriously if anyone reads this and wants to message me to show me the ropes that would really be lovely. Well I'm off to explore this site. Have a good one

Gloomy rain

Today it is my birthday. I feel like I should be a lot older than I am though. I have been contemplating what I want to do, and quite frankly its depressing me. I know I shouldn't worry about anything, and part of me says ' it really doesn't matter, just go where the wind blows you,' but on the other hand i feel like I should at least have an inkling of a dream. But oh well, I shouldn't write like a gloomy rain cloud on my first post. Well I'm wishing myself a happy year, and signing off, so goodnight to whoever might read this.
