Going on a trip

Lately it seems I've been obsessing about the sky and the recent rain and well, sunsets, of course. For the past weeks, I have been marveling at the view of the city from the office's pantry window. It has become a habit to hit that place during the late afternoon because it can get extremely cold at that time and uh, yeah, I do like seeing Manila's afternoon skyline, pollution and all.

Anyway, I just couldn't resist this afternoon and so I took a picture of it with my phone. I've recently been listening to a lot of Phoenix too, so yeah, it's sort of "inspired."

Countdown unless you're juvenile let's go
God bless your miss somewhere
We're sick for the big sun
It doesn't matter what you did
and if you did it like you been told

True and everlasting that's what you want
True and everlasting that's what you want

Don't say no your breakfast tears are gone
Resist or let go, you're borderline withdrawn

DMB songs: Either really good or really shitty

Just downloaded the newest album of my favorite group since I heard "Crash into me" in Excess Baggage back in grade school-Dave Matthews Band's Big Whiskey and the Groogrux King, and I'm not that impressed. Like any of their old collaborations, this does have their standout songs, such as their carrier single, "Funny the way it is,""You and me" and "Lying in the hands of God," while the rest (in my opinion) are all incompetent compared to what I'd call the "Move me, shake me, DMB" track list.

I just think they're deteriorating as a band, and it's sad because their music was somehow influential to me while growing up. Suffice to say, this is no "Under the table and dreaming" or "Crash." It's forgettable. Let's cry now.

Dave, I think it's time to "Say goodbye."
