screaming under water
caught the movie rent last night & loved it. yes its a musical & yes its damn good.
maybe it just resonated w/ that _ucked up space of leaving my 20's far behind & running headon full speed into my 30's. throwing loose baggage out the window in a confused, lost, love, hurtful, death of loved ones state of mind.
i think my favorite clip of the movie is the scene at the "life cafe". the cast of actors have a huge outbusrt of emotion, dance, singing & portray life as just being abstract but in the moment. death maybe around the corner but it shouldn't limit the souls ability to glow.
for me i think the pixies nailed it on the head....with the song "where is my mind?"
"...With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
But there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself
Where is my mind
Way out in the water
See it swimmin'
I was swimmin' in the Carribean
Animals were hiding behind the rocks
Except the little fish
But they told me, he swears
Tryin' to talk to me to me to me
Where is my mind
Way out in the water
See it swimmin' ?
With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
If there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself
Where is my mind..."
