Video rec

[rivers_bend]

I would imagine most of us have music that we associate with high school, or whatever local adolescent schooling you had in your country. Mine is Pink Floyd. My first (and only of any import) boyfriend got me into them when I was fourteen, and I listened to very little else for the next four and a half years. I associate Floyd not only with nostalgia and comfort and happiness, but also with obsessive love that drove me to things I'm still a little ashamed of, and with heartbreaking betrayal. With angst beyond measure. With hours and hours and hours of first tapes and then CDs on repeat while I sobbed out my pain.

So I ask you now to imagine my joy that the amazing deirdre_c has done a vid of 4.21 to Pink Floyd's Hey You.

SO MUCH JOY. SO MANY TEARS.

You are welcome! Pink Floyd + SPN, two of my biggest loves.

Wasn't it? I was totally a-flail.

Me too! OMG I was totally overcome. But in that OMG SO GOOD way as well as the OMG TOO MUCH ANGST way.

DUDE.

'The Wall' on repeat, specifically 'Comfortably Numb' was is my go-to 'sob out the pain' music therapy.

The movie? Could barely speak for three days after seeing it.

I am now crazy-tempted to watch the vid! (But I am nowhere near up to 4.21 in my watching!!)

I was more about Dark Side, Meddle, and Wish You Were Here, though I also loved The Wall crazy amounts. Comfortably Numb is probably one of my faves. I think I need to have a pink floyd listen now.

YAY! Thank you. I was so hoping you'd feel this way. Floyd! <3

[rivers-bend.livejournal.com]

I felt this way AND MORE. I cannot even properly explain. But I suspect you get it, anyway. This makes me happy.

on another note, darling, WHAT ARE YOU DOING AWAKE? I am up way too late, and I'm three hours behind you!

Insomnia. :(((

Plus, trying to catch up on lots and lots of work that I put off while burying myself in iMovie the past couple of days! (Which is why I should not be checking my flist atm, but... *g*)

Oh, hon, I'm sorry! That sucks. I have been blissfully free of insomnia since I stopped working night shifts, but I remember how utterly horrible I found it.

At least you can be productive?

*hugs*
