September 14th - The Naked And Famous

Good evening, solar system.

I LOVE THE BAND "THE NAKED AND FAMOUS"

I downloaded their album the day before yesterday (because I'm a dirty pirate) and today I bought their two EPs, This Machine and No Light. And I signed up for the newsletter at their official site so I got a free mp3 of Crazy Yes Dumb No, and I discovered them from a site called popjustice which was offering a free download of a remix of their song Young Blood which I mentioned yesterday.

So in short I really, really like them. They are from New Zealand. The two main vocalists are a rather dreamy man and a rather pretty lady. I think I'm probably going to end up becoming slightly obsessed with them. I might buy their EP "All of This" even though I already have one of the three tracks via downloading their album. But having the other two would be excited. HMMM. It is only $3 US which is probably like fifty dollars Canadian but oh well. I'll manage.

Umm. I got out of work a lot earlier today than I did yesterday, and the next two days I get out at six which means I'm not the one closing which is VERY EXCITING YES INDEED.

I don't know why I'm using so much caps. Yes I am kind of in a good mood but really not THAT good of a mood. I think I am hyper and that's... perplexing. I had a milkshake like eight hours ago but I think the point of that inducing hyperness has passed by now.

I am listening to The Naked And Famous right now and I keep flailing my arms around because it's just so exciting. It's almost like I didn't know how good music could be before I discovered this band but to be honest I feel that way every time I discover someone I like a lot. I'm very fickle when it comes to certain things.

I injured myself in a way I never would have thought possible before today. I was trying to scratch some dried gravy off the counter at work and a flake of it jabbed under my fingernail and stuck there and when I pulled it out the underneath-my-nail part bled a little. I GOT STABBED BY GRAVY.

Sorry. I did the caps thing again. Graaah it's so hard not to be typing in caps right now. I think I'd better wrap this up before I break something. I think I am going to dance and jump around a bit to try and get rid of some of this energy.

  1. 'I got stabbed by gravy' made me laugh, a lot :). I think I may be the same when it comes to discovering new things, I get really excited as if nothing has ever existed quite like what I have found, but I guess that is part of the fun of finding new music, books, etc.

  2. Haha, I didn't even read over the entire post and I was like "Wow... someone was hyper." I was much like that for most of today as well. It's been a while since I've been this excited about new music. Usually I just put it on repeat for a long time until I decide to go listen to something else. But with this, I actually WANT to listen to other songs I actually want to listen to the whole album instead of replaying one song.

    I'm glad my pain is funny to you! (It was pretty funny to me too, and today I walked into a giant garbage can that I definitely knew was there... and my supervisor laughed at me)

    Anyway ^.^; Thanks for all your comments, I always enjoy them :)

  4. What makes this even better is that a couple days later I was stabbed in the same way by mustard. And I have had my under-fingernail area stabbed at least twice more, both those times resulting in bleeding.
