My Favourite Song #2 - Brand - New - Life - Young Marble Giants

Young Marble Giants is truly original and Brand - New - Life is one bleak song about break-ups.

And so, I've spent the day reading Haruki Murakami's South of the Border, West of The Sun:

"...ultimately I am a person who can do evil. I never consciously tried to hurt someone, yet good intentions notwithstanding, when necessity demanded, I could become completely self-centred, even cruel. I was the kind of person who could, using some plausible excuse, inflict on a person I cared for a wound that would never heal."

I don't think anyone is above such cruelty, including myself.

My Favourite Song #1 - 浪漫九龍塘 (A Certain Romance in Kowloon Tong) - my little airport

Another catchy song from Hong Kong's my little airport. It's short but it makes me happy when I hear it and think a little about younger days.

Sex. You worry when you have it, and you worry when you don't have it.

"We have to be very strong, if we want to do something very wrong."
