Music

I've got to be honest folks. I am not a big fan of Portishead's new album. (I know, shock! amazement! horror!)
It is a good album, not a great album. I might be missing something within the greater picture, and I'm glad they're back after so long. But I can't say I like the new direction. (I guess that's what I get for being a die-hard 90's Portishead fan).
I was still excited about getting the new album, and I am listening to it again as I type. So I will not not recommend it, just slightly less recommend it.

Also in the world of music is some new stuff:

Maybe saying this will make me sound sad and pathetic, but I didn't know any of those names. I almost thought you were speaking in a different language. For, all I know, you made all those names. Or perhaps, as previously stated, I'm musically-retarded.

I love you!
