i’ve got enough of this stuff
i watched “almost famous” last night. i had to after the whole IGGY POP! thing.
do you remember that part, after william’s home and russel runs into celestia backstage? and she talks about how the new groupies “don’t know what it’s like to love some silly piece of music so much it hurts”?
because i’m listening to the tim version of Can’t Hardly Wait (my preferred version) and my heart’s racing. i’ve listened to this song about 100 times more than i’ve watched “almost famous” (and we all know i watch that movie a lot) and it still quickens my pulse. everytime.
i wish i were a music critic. someone who really, really know music and had the ability to put how something makes them feel into words. i can’t do that. i curse my ineptitude when it comes to music and writing about it.
i so badly want to put into words how it makes me feel when paul westerberg’s voice cracks when he screams “i can’t hardly wait.” but i can’t do it. i’ve tried like 1000 times to no avail. it frustrates me to no end.
