Rather Be - The Verve
About
I'm Sam, 31, I live close to DC. I like arty stuff, pop culture, good food. I wish I had more time to read. I wish I traveled more. I need to drink more wine. I don't get to listen to enough music. I'm trying to catch up.Some amateurish pictures I've taken myself are here .
Collecting interesting articles here .
I rarely get personal.
But I like email (probably a generational thing): sam88mph at gmail

And those movies are: Radio Days, A Face In The Crowd, The Third Man and the 1945 version of The Picture Of Dorian Gray.”

hey, when she sings,
when she sings,
when she sings like she runs.
moves like she runs.hey pretty baby get high with me
we can go to my sister’s if we say we’ll watch the baby
the look on your face yanks my neck on the chain
and I would do anything to see you againI live right on a busy street, and when cars drive by playing music you can hear it loudly in my room. Usually people just drive by playing shitty rap or Miley Cyrus, but yesterday a man in a convertible was playing Neko Case unbelievably loud on great speakers, so her voice was crystal-clear and breathtaking. It was beautiful.
That’s me every day, except I don’t drive a convertible.
