considered enjoy inherently lack lesser liking music pop somehow substance tired
I'm tired of being considered vapid for liking pop music or caring about fashion as if these things inherently lack substance or as if the things I enjoy somehow make me a lesser person.
behind below due existing finished fourth growing homes indicate inventory investor lack last percent quarter sales strong year
Growing inventory of existing homes indicate we are now in a buyer's market! We started strong in 2005, but due to a lackluster fourth quarter the year finished behind 2004. Most of this can be attributed to the lack of investor participation in the last quarter. Sales for 2005 were about 5 percent below that of 2004.
music
My image seems to be so infantilized, and I don't really know why. It belittles the music.
cranking hits job
My dream job would be sitting in a room, cranking out hits for Rihanna.
music songs
My favorite music is never the music that anyone else likes, and other people's favorite songs are always my least favorite.
insular
When I'm making a song that's very Grimes, it just feels very insular and it feels weird to have someone else do something on it.
art good
I think if you're good at art, you'll be good at most types of art.
experience music musical people
I went through my adolescence having this revelatory experience - I can have any music I want, and I can get it immediately. For me and for a lot of people I know, there's this musical eclecticism that happened.
My set can get really screamo and aggressive, or it can be ambient and Enya-esque.
music
Most of my music videos were made for under $200.
incredibly school
I was incredibly unpopular in high school but also extremely notorious.
I think I have serious latent Catholic guilt issues.
I like to aestheticize every possible thing that can be aestheticized.
music
When I first started out, I was making really slow, psychedelic ambient music because it was all I could do.
