I discovered/re-discovered The Kinks tonight.
If I was ever a musician, I just know this would be exactly the kind of music I'd make. Not the kind of music I wish I had made, because THAT list is practically inexhaustible for anyone with a Facebook profile.
It is the kind of music I would make. If I was a musician, that is. Somewhere in a parallel universe they would call me The British Invasion. I'd wear leather capes and boots on stage and try not looking like an ad for a BDSM website. And I'd make happy-crazy-audacious and always, always oddly satisfying music.
And then I'd put on my slippers, and sit by the fire. Cause I'd know I've reached my top and I couldnt get any higher. I'd be in my place and I'd know where I was. In my Shangri-La.

Boss, uncanny eta. My neighbour just lent me some Kinks and Manfred Mann and sooner or later I'd have written this post, I think, sans the Shangri La bit at the end. Heh Heh.
Boss, gaan ta byaepok. Seriously. Couldn't help meself.
I love the 'Lola' song. Keep humming that in class nowadays for some reason. Also 'With a little help from my friends' by the Beatles.
