I've been feeling a bit different lately. I think the proper word would be "relaxed", but I'm not sure if that would be accurate. It's more... just a general laid-backness. I've been getting frustrated a lot about everything, but now I think it's just kind of... who cares? Dunno.

Been listening to the Radiohead song Idioteque a ton lately (that's where the lyrics in the subject come from), along with In the Sun (I'm tempted to get the Joseph Arthur version). Pretty much I've been listening to all of Kid A, which I've decided is a masterpiece. Not generic rock, but that's why I love it. The thing about Radiohead is just that they're so out there. Their music, their lyrics... Idioteque is rock mixed with electronic music, and the lyrics slightly resemble a wartime attitude, although they still are just so vague and distant that it could be anything. Dunno. But I love Thom Yorke's voice. Just as I love Chris Martin's voice.

Now listening to the Radiohead song How to Disappear Completely. Very distant lyrics, very experimental music: "In a little while / I'll be gone / The moment's already passed / Yeah it's gone / And I'm not here / This isn't happening / I'm not here / I'm not here." I dunno. It's just great music to listen to and just think.

I really don't talk much about myself in this thing, do I? Usually it's writing or something fandom-related. Hm. Interesting. I guess there's just not much to tell about myself. I don't really feel like I'm hiding anything. *shrugs*

Dunno. I think it's time to listen to more Radiohead.
