time travel
Echo & The Bunnymen - The Killing Moon
The Church - Under the Milky Way
Two great pop songs from the 80's. The Killing Moon from 1984 by Echo & the Bunnymen and The Church's Under the Killing Moon from 1988. They were both used in Richard Kelly's brilliant movie Donnie Darko.
"Dear Roberta Sparrow, I have reached the end of your book and... there are so many things that I need to ask you. Sometimes I'm afraid of what you might tell me. Sometimes I'm afraid that you'll tell me that this is not a work of fiction. I can only hope that the answers will come to me in my sleep. I hope that when the world comes to an end, I can breathe a sigh of relief, because there will be so much to look forward to."

anger
Did someone throw this flower through the glass? Or? I think this may be a case for the Fiskis CSI.

lene lovich vs siouxsie sioux
lene lovich - bird song
In the late seventies Lene Lovich was actually pretty big. I loved her first album but this single - Bird Song - is from her second album Flex which was released in 1979. I'm not really sure when this video was released - if it's from 1979 it's absolutely fabulous. If it's from the early eighties then it's just brilliant. She looks and sounds fantastic anyway!
(Seems like the video is from 1980 so it's pretty damn awesome compared to most of the videos from that time.)
the creatures - right now
The Creatures was a side project for Siouxsie Sioux and Budgie. If you were a part of the late punk and early goth movement you know the impact Siouxsie had. There must have been at least 5 Siouxsie wannabes/look-alikes in Falun where I spent my teens and that's a lot considering how few goths there were in Falun back then. Right Now is their first single and it was released in 1983. I love this song. It was such a great contrast to the kind of music that the Siouxsie & the Banshees made at the time. It's kind of related to The Cures The Lovecats which also was released in 1983. Happy songs made by goth royalties.

dexter - resistance is futile
I'm just repeating myself. Dexter is great. Do yourself a favour and watch it. What will happen with Doakes? And Dexter? Can they make peace? Maybe frame that annoying and insane British girl Lila for the murders? What about that? I sure would like that. Dexter without Doakes would be a bit less great. Can't the next episode be here now? The end of Resistance is Futile was too exciting. Need to know what happens.
