Gonna go to Babylon and get me some whiskey now!

Regina Spektor - Pavlov's Daughter

Everytime I hear this song, i get chills down my spine. I remain mesmerized for the whole 7.50 minutes, and it takes about 2 minutes to wake up from the trans after the song.
I GUARANTEE if you close your eyes, listen to this song, you'll fall in love with her!! I know it's a lot promised, but why not have go?
I would love to see Regina Spektor live in a dark, smokey little club in New York City, it would be one musical dream to come true for sure. Since her other repertoire is more poppish, and not so smokey-dark, it will probably stay as such. Anyway, that's all I got to say today, ENJOY!

Take a look at your life, you kneel before your heroes!

Yesterday I received the email I had been waiting for a week. Three IAMX cds waiting for me at the Levykauppa Äx record store! I had been waiting for them to arrive more than the promised 2-5 days, so I had to get them right away! This is my newest obsession, and I am happy to announce that I also got a ticket to the gig taking place at the end of March.



IAMX is not just another electronic rock/pop act, and Chris Corner not just another nancy boy without any substance. His music is sexy, brave and real! As a person who can't listen to just any 'Can't get you out of my head' crap I gotta say the lyrics of Corner are deep and very touching. They are about real life. Also I like a lot about his voice, that reminds me of various artists in different songs, but it's still very unique. He has a brilliant taste! In all possible ways. Also, IAMX is going to be one of the best gigs I've seen! I'm positive about this. It's something you can hear from the music, the moods, the atmosphere and the sound. I can't wait for the Nosturi gig. These things are factors that keep my generation going, we do kneel before our heroes, as long as they deserve it! We are picky, but devoted! We idolize, but for our own individual reasons.

Here is a video of the song President

Ink Art #1

Tattoos! I love tattoos! If i was rich (too many of my sentences start like that), I would tattoo my whole body in a very much like Steve Forrest-y style. At the moment I have one that I took in the summer 2010 in Camden Town, London. I had dreamed about the tattoo with the text and the font for about 2 long years, and finally, in a long weekend trip to London, after 2 ciders in the noon time, I did it! 80 pounds, and life long wonderful memories!

Here is a piccie for you:

Hairy arm in the middle of London!

Camden is the place to be! My dream would be to live there one day...

This guy wanted a pound for the photo, even I told him I just got my tattoo taken in the place! He didn't even do any pose! 
Bad quality pics in bad quality blog! :D
I have plans for the future and I will get at least another 2 tattoos in the year 2011. Both will be located on my shoulders. On the left side, where I have the texts as well, will be a butterfly. I have kind of an idea how I want it to be black and white and maybe some gray too, kind of small and definitely not tribal. I want it to look like a butterfly, because it has a lot of meaning behind it. My dad has promised to pay for it, because he has a butterfly on his shoulder as well, and about 10 years ago he offered to pay my tattoo if I get one too. Then it was a safe way to prevent me from taking any tattoo (reverse psychology :D), but now I finally told him I take the offer he had no reason to say no!
The second tattoo I have been planning, is going to be so glam and rock and hot, and hopefully designed by my oldest friend who is a real artist!! Her drawings are amazing! If I get her permission I will show some of them here.

I guess this means I'm a blogger now...

This is my blog I never thought I would start. I have nothing relevant to say about anything important! My entries will probably be lacking any kind of interesting insight! I might share some pics I think are nice. I'm definitely gonna share my opinions about music and gigs, videos, songs, delicious musicians and anything that comes to my mind.

Let's start this with style. I love this video made by NikaToten 
The song and the line that is the title of my blog are really really really important to me, and I actually have the title tattooed on my arm. Will post a pic later.
