New Stuff: Bob Dylan



Not even close to completing my Bob Dylan collection...

Alejandra Alonso

Somewhere (2010)



A hard-living Hollywood actor re-examines his life after his 11-year-old daughter surprises him with a visit.

Subtle and low-key study of a hollow character.

New Stuff: The Rolling Stones



And the next album as an addition to my Stones collection...

Josefine Ekman Nilsson

The Siege (1998)



The secret US abduction of a suspected terrorist leads to a wave of terrorist attacks in New York that lead to the declaration of martial law.

A well-made political thriller that amazingly predicts the later terror attacks tackles nearly all post-9/11 issues since then.

 Travis - Why Does It Always Rain On Me



I can't sleep tonight
Everybody saying everything's alright
Still I can't close my eyes
I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights
Sunny days
Where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong.
Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining
I can't avoid the lightning
I can't stand myself
I'm being held up by invisible men
Still life on a shelf when
I got my mind on something else
Sunny days
Where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong.
Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining
I can't avoid the lightning
Oh, where did the blue skies go?
And why is it raining so?
It's so cold
I can't sleep tonight
Everybody saying everything's alright
Still I can't close my eyes
I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights
Sunny days
Where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong.
Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining
I can't avoid the lightning
Oh, where did the blue skies go?
And why is it raining so?
It's so cold
Why does it always rain on me?
Why does it always rain...

New Stuff: Sonic Youth



Although I do have the complete back catalogue of Sonic Youth's main albums, I'm still a bit behind with the SYR series. This edition is interesting since it contains several John Cage compositions.
