Light of Moon

I retaught myself Clair De Lune this week.

When I was in junior high, I found out that one of my Grandma's favorite songs was Claire de Lune by Claude Debussy. As a boy who had been taking piano lessons, I took this opportunity to learn the song by myself. Now, I'm one of those pianists who can't sight read music. I have to memorize it, which can take a little while, but then I can regurgitate it for the world to hear at any piano I encounter.

Well, I played it for my Grandma and then forgot about it. Everything but the first page and a half had been completely erased over time, until I quit my job. Today I can play the entire thing again. It has definitely become my favorite piece.

It's one of the reasons why Ocean's 11 is one of my all time favorite movies... so amazing.

Apple Bottom JADE

"Apple Bottom Jeans,
Boots With the Fur,
With the FUR!"

So, the song "Low" by Flo Rida, featuring T-Pain, has popped into my head SO MUCH lately. I've been singing it at rehearsal, and I've continued to do so now that we've started performances. A couple of my cast-mates have never heard of the song, but they already know the lyrics to the Chorus part simply because of me and my annoying singing.

"The whole club was looking at her!"

It's a smart idea to create a song around a line of jeans - man, I'm not a woman with a curvy bootay but I want some of these jeans!

So, I'm very excited about the new season of America's Next Top Model coming up here in Feb. This might seem like a weird transition from the jeans, but it's not too far off. Prior contestant of ANTM cycle 6, Jade, is actually a model for the pants.



I'll be writing up more on the next season of ANTM, and what my take on the new contestants are in a little while - I mean, it's one of my obsessions...

So I know this isn't a very classy entry, but the song has just been in my head nonstop, so I just had to get it out in an attempt to rid myself of the beast.

It also doesn't help that it's also a song on a "Step Up 2: The Streets" preview, so I hear it whenever that's on tv too.

This also won't help...
