Regina Spektor - All the Rowboats (First single from “What We Saw from the Cheap Seats”)

Good music is like fucking. It’s always been like fucking. Even if it’s classical music. And it doesn’t really matter what people are like: it’s good sex or it isn’t. And everybody’s capable of having good sex. It’s either good music or bad music, isn’t it? There’s the stuff that comes from the other side, and then there’s the stuff that comes from someone’s personal marketing campaign. And there isn’t any in-betweens.

Six o’clock, TV hour
Don’t get caught in foreign towers
Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn
Locking in, uniforming, book burning, blood letting

R.E.M.It’s the end of the world as we know it
