count me in
15 October 2007 by julietbdespite the fact i said i didn’t much like it at the time charlotte gainsbourg’s 5.55 has been floating in my head most of the weekend, though my internal dj has been cutting it up with another numerically titled track, james figurine’s 55566688833. and in here that sounds awesome.
not that his is a musical vibe i’d normally be following, it’s a bit too ‘warm leatherette’ for my taste but i love the musical assertion of the perils of non-premptive texts and failing relationships.
if you’re saving time with your girlfriend by sending texts rather than hanging out then it’s probably a relationship that’s serving your mobile phone operator better than your lovelife but hey, its just a super-catchy song not a life lesson.
still, go and listen to charlotte’s digital acoustic and see if you can make it add up too.
and while i’m sending you off to listen to things, its a good time to say head over to the hype machine and keep your browser open so we can all get a look at whatever newness anthony’s been planning.
